Climate considerations

When seeking storage space in Altoona, Pennsylvania, considering the city's unique climate is crucial. The summer months of June, July, and August can witness an average high temperature near 83°F, while the winter period around January can drop to an average low of 20°F.

If you're storing items that are temperature-sensitive, such as antiques, musical instruments, or sensitive documents, a climate-controlled unit may be beneficial. This option helps to maintain a consistent temperature and prevents extreme heat or cold from damaging your valuables.

However, it's important not to overlook the value of non-climate-controlled storage. If you're storing durable items likes tools, patio furniture, metals, or canned goods, these units can provide an equally safe environment. To ensure your items remain in great condition, be sure to pack them securely, cover furniture with sheets or dust covers, and use sturdy boxes. This extra step can provide added protection against natural elements, even without climate control.
