Debunking Common Myths About Self-Storage
These days, self-storage has become a go-to solution for people and businesses looking to get organized and free up space. Whether they are in the midst of a move, or have seasonal needs, self-storage provides a multitude of reasons for use. Despite how helpful it can be, there are still many myths that make some people hesitant.
The truth? Self-storage is much more than just a room to store your extra furniture. Modern facilities like ours at Prestige Storage offer many kinds of solutions, from climate control for sensitive items to advanced security features.
We’re here to clear up a few common misconceptions about self-storage, so you can see just how flexible and helpful it really is!
Myth 1: “Self-Storage Is Only for People Who Are Moving”
The Truth: While it is certainly popular during moves, self-storage serves many purposes beyond moving. People store seasonal items like holiday decorations or sports gear, and businesses store excess inventory or documents. Prestige Storage offers units in a variety of sizes for needs like decluttering, renovations, or business storage.
Myth 2: “Self-Storage Is Not Secure”
The Truth: Modern self-storage facilities prioritize security, and Prestige Storage is no exception. Our facilities feature 24/7 video recording, gated access, and personalized gate codes for entry, so only authorized individuals can access the premises. All of our facilities are designed with multiple layers of security to ensure your belongings are protected.
Myth 3: “Climate-Controlled Units Are Not Necessary”
The Truth: Climate-controlled units are essential for preserving items sensitive to temperature and humidity, like furniture, electronics, and documents. Prestige Storage offers climate-controlled options to keep units stable, helping prevent weather-related damage to your valuables. These units provide added protection for items that require it.
Myth 4: “You Can’t Access Your Unit After Hours”
The Truth: Many self-storage facilities offer extended or even 24/7 access. Prestige understands the need for flexibility, making it convenient for you to access items when it works for you. Hours may vary by location, but flexible access is available at most sites.
Myth 5: “All Self-Storage Units Are the Same”
The Truth: Storage facilities differ in security, cleanliness, accessibility, and features. Prestige Storage takes pride in offering well-maintained units, various size options, and features like climate control, drive-up access, and advanced security. Each location is designed to meet diverse needs, ensuring a high-quality experience for all.
