Climate Considerations

When looking to rent a storage unit in Opa Locka, Florida, there are some important factors to consider. Florida's climate is warm and humid, making it important to think about humidity and temperature when storing items. In peak summer months, the average high temperature is around 93°F, and in winter, the average low is around 58°F.

Climate-controlled storage is recommended for items that are sensitive to heat and humidity, like wooden furniture, electronics, and artwork. Other items that may benefit from climate control include books and photographs. Non-climate-controlled storage is suitable for items that are less sensitive to heat and humidity, such as clothing, linens, and holiday decorations. To protect these items, they should be thoroughly cleaned and wrapped in plastic or bubble wrap before storing.

Overall, non-climate-controlled storage can be a great way to save money while storing items that are not temperature or humidity sensitive. Using airtight boxes or wrapping items in plastic is a great way to protect items without the additional cost of climate-controlled storage.
