Protecting Your Belongings: Smart Storage Solutions for Alberta's Climate
Alberta’s weather can be unpredictable, with freezing winters and hot summers. If you’re storing valuable or delicate items, taking the right precautions ensures they stay in great condition. Here are some tips on how to protect your belongings in Legal Self Storage’s secure storage units.
1. Shield Items from Extreme Temperatures
Temperature swings can impact sensitive belongings. To help prevent damage:
Use Insulated Covers: Wrap furniture, electronics, and wooden items in blankets or moving pads.
Store in Plastic Bins: Unlike cardboard, plastic bins resist moisture and keep items dry.
Elevate Items Off the Floor: Place items on pallets or shelves to improve air circulation.
2. Prevent Moisture & Mold Growth
While our storage units are secure and well-maintained, extra steps can keep your items in the best shape:
Use Silica Gel Packs: Absorb excess moisture inside bins or boxes.
Keep Airflow in Mind: Leave small gaps between stacked items for better ventilation.
Check Your Unit Regularly: Visit your storage space periodically to ensure everything remains in good condition.
3. Best Practices for Business & Personal Storage
If you’re storing business materials or sentimental items, consider these extra precautions:
Documents & Records: Use airtight containers to prevent paper from yellowing.
Electronics & Equipment: Keep original packaging or use padded storage cases.
Clothing & Fabrics: Store in vacuum-sealed bags to reduce exposure to dust and moisture.
