“I live in Arizona and visit my daughter frequently. This visit, however, was going to be a longer visit. We planned on doing a number of craft projects together. I decided to pull my cargo trailer to have better access to my supplies. I parked my trailer in my daughter’s apartment parking using her extra parking pass. No problem for the first two weeks. Then I was told that trailers could not be parked there and that I had to move it within 48 hours. I offered to pay for a space, but my offer was rejected. I planned to return home early. I asked them for an additional 18 hours. I was told that towing had already been scheduled for the 48 hour deadline. Boy, was I unhappy.
I had rented storage once before with A-1, so I headed there [sic], San Juan Capistrano location. Alysa had been pleasant the first time around, but this time she turned a very stressful, unhappy situation into something easy and calm. I drove the trailer home, stored my supplies, and returned to stay even longer. First time around..good. Second time..more so. Would recommend A-1 again and again.”

Climate control storage units are extremely handy when it comes to storing your furniture, antiques, musical instruments, or any fine art. Climate controlled storage units keep items in a constant set temperature. If you are going to be placing valuable items in storage, you will want to consider a climate controlled unit.
Furniture – Wooden and leather furniture are sensitive to extreme climates and will want to be stored in climate controlled units. Wooden furniture (bed frames, tables, chairs, dressers, and more ) can be damaged when it is exposed to too much moisture.
Appliances – Your household appliances including washers, dryers, microwaves, refrigerator all need climate control storage. Climate control protects electronic parts from cracking and rusting,
Musical Instruments- Musical instruments are very delicate and need to be handled with great especially if storing for a long period of time. Humidity can dry out wood instruments such as guitars ans pianos. Climate control will reduce moisture and help eliminate dust which will preserve your musical instruments.
Photography & Artwork – When storing photos climate control is a must. If temperatures get too hot and humid and photos are stacked on top of one another, the prints can start to blend together.
Properly storing your items during the warm summer months will help protect your items from the heat. Climate control is offered at select A-1 Self Storage locations. Check with your facility to confirm.
