Climate considerations

When considering renting a storage unit in Calera, Alabama, it's essential to keep in mind the city's climate. Summers in Calera can be hot, with an average high of around 91 degrees in July. On the other hand, the winters are mild and temperate, with an average low of about 34 degrees in January.

Considering this, for items that might be sensitive to high temperatures, such as electronics or delicate fabrics, using climate-controlled storage during the summer months could be beneficial. This feature helps maintain a consistent temperature and protects your items from extreme heat.

Ensuring your items are prepared correctly can help maximize their longevity, regardless of the season or whether you choose climate or non-climate-controlled storage.
