Climate considerations

When searching for a storage unit in Cambridge, the time of year and climate can play a crucial role in determining your needs. With average high temperatures peaking around 82°F in the summer, consider the impact heat may have on sensitive items. Climate-controlled units can mitigate this, maintaining a consistent, cool temperature to protect heat-sensitive items such as electronics or artwork.

However, non-climate-controlled storage can be just as effective for most belongings. This is especially true in the winter months, where average low temperatures can drop to 22°F. Using protective measures such as packing materials and tightly sealed boxes can keep your items safe from fluctuating temperatures in a non-climate-controlled unit.

During the milder months, the temperatures in Cambridge remain relatively stable making non-climate-controlled storage a viable and valuable option. Planning carefully and understanding your storage needs in relation to the climate can make your storage experience successful, no matter the time of year.
