| For items that you are more likely to retrieve but don't have available
space at home, you should consider placing them into a mini-storage
unit. They are more convenient and accessible than warehouse storage.
Not only will you have access to your unit 24-hours a day and 7-days
a week, but you also provide your own lock and key for added security.
Individual units are available to fit your needs. You rent a unit on a monthly basis under an "occupancy agreement." Selecting your unit You may move your own items into the unit, or if you have a couple of heavier items, you can request a pick-up. Many facilities will provide free pickup if you agree to keep your items in the unit for a certain length of time. In these cases, when the driver arrives with the truck, it will be your responsibility to load your items. The driver will accept no liability for your items. Before you place your items into a storage space, it is imperative that you inspect the facilities. The facility should be located in a convenient spot near your residence and accessible 24-hours a day and 7-days a week. Your unit should have sufficient amount of space for all of your items and for easy walkway access. Create an inventory of all of the items that you wish to place into storage, so that if you don't know which size unit to select, you'll have something to show to a facility worker. The storage unit should be clean, climate-controlled, fireproof and above all, secure. Self-storage facilities offer many types of security features, ranging from alarms, motion detectors, video surveillance, nightly inspections, and guards on duty. You will have to provide your own lock and key, so that only you and your authorized personnel will have access to the unit. |
