When I was moving, I had to put the home furnishings into storage while waiting for the moving truck.
My home sold right away, plus I was living in a hotel for a month.
My main problem with the storage machine was whether it had temperature control. My clothing plus personal items were all that were staying with me! Everything else was going to be in the storage unit. I asked if there was temperature control when I rented the unit. I knew how warm plus humid it would be in the storage machine without temperature control. I didn’t want my furniture to mold or mildew. The man who was at the counter assured me they had excellent temperature control, plus my belongings were safe, however I was hesitant. I asked about insurance on my property. I was willing to pay extra for insurance. She showed me a clause in their contract that guaranteed full replacement of my condo if there was any disfigurement from the lack of temperature control. A month later, I was with the movers when they went to the storage machine to load my property. I was shocked when I opened the store, only to have serious heat plus humidity blow into my face. It was hotter inside the storage machine than it was inside. I called the manager, plus told him he had to come down here right away. They followed through with paying for my disfigurementd furniture, but now I had to buy a new living room set, mattresses, carpets, chairs, sofa, plus my winter time clothing. The only things not ruined were those that were metal, plus hidden beneath other items.
