"Thank you Marybeth for allowing me to store my car in your garage for about 2.5 months. It was reassuring to know my possessions were stored in a safe place. Having the ability to remotely open and close the garage made the whole experience easy and convenient. I would highly recommend you to others who may need to store a car."

Types of Storage

Renting a storage unit has many benefits, including providing extra space for items not used regularly, allowing for better organization of belongings, and providing additional security for prized possessions.

  • Drive-up units provide the convenience of vehicle access and easy loading and unloading.
  • Interior units (without climate control) are typically more economical and ideal for items that are not sensitive to temperature or humidity.
  • Interior units (with climate control) are great for keeping sensitive items such as electronics, art, clothing, and wine safe from the elements.
  • Outdoor parking can be used to store vehicles and boats that are not used frequently.
  • Specialty storage units are great for larger items such as furniture, motorhomes, and motorcycles. They can also be used for commercial purposes.

Choosing a Storage Unit

When selecting a self storage unit in Tampa, Florida, there are a few factors to consider.

  • Location: Consider how close the storage unit is to your home or business. The closer it is, the more convenient it will be when you need to access your stored items.
  • Size: Think about the size of the items you plan to store, including the unit’s height and depth. The right size unit will give you enough room for your items and the flexibility to store more items in the future.
  • Accessibility: Consider the unit’s accessibility and the hours you’ll be able to access it. Some self storage units may have limited access times, so make sure to find out ahead of time.
  • Security: Look for self storage units that provide security features such as gated access and video surveillance.
  • Climate Control: Make sure to check if the unit offers climate control for temperature-sensitive items.

Climate Considerations

When looking to rent a storage unit in Tampa, Florida, it is important to consider the climate and weather of the city. Tampa has mild winters and humid summers, with an average high temperature of 91°F in peak summer months and an average low temperature of 58°F in peak winter months. To protect your items and maximize their longevity, consider what type of storage will provide the best option.

Climate-controlled storage units are ideal for storing sensitive items such as electronic equipment, paperwork, artwork, and wooden furniture, as they maintain a consistent temperature year-round. Non-climate-controlled storage units are recommended for items that are not sensitive to temperature changes, such as camping gear, outdoor furniture and bikes.

To ensure that your items are best protected and that the longevity of the items is maximized, ensure you store them properly. Items like books and documents should be stored in airtight boxes and electronics should be packed in their original boxes and wrapped in bubble wrap for extra protection. Furniture should also be covered in protective material, such as plastic wrap.

Overall, there is value in both climate-controlled and non-climate-controlled storage in Tampa depending on the items you are storing. With the proper precautions, you can ensure that your items stay in good condition, regardless of the climate and weather.
