Climate Controlled Storage in Montgomery, AL
Gunter Self Storage offers climate controlled storage units in a variety of sizes near the Gunter Annex, part of Maxwell AFB, in Montgomery, Alabama.
What Is Climate Controlled Storage?
Standard units work fine for furniture, tools, and clothing packed in sealed bins. But items like artwork, electronics, and fragile collectibles need more protection from temperature swings.
Climate controlled storage connects your unit to an HVAC system that keeps the temperature steady year-round, so sensitive belongings stay in good condition.
Benefits of Climate Control
- Protects items from extreme heat and cold
- Reduces the risk of cracking, warping, or brittleness
- Helps guard against Alabama's high summer humidity
- Keeps temperature-sensitive belongings stable year-round
In the southern U.S., including Alabama, summer heat and humidity can be too intense for some items to stay safe in a non-climate-controlled unit.
Humidity Control
Along with steady temperatures, our climate controlled units dehumidify the air to maintain a consistent humidity level — ideally around 55% for most items, though some need it even lower.
Look for a facility with dedicated dehumidifiers, not just air conditioning. AC helps some, but it's not as effective at controlling humidity.
What to Store in a Climate Controlled Unit
Consider a climate controlled space for valuable or irreplaceable items, including:
- Books, documents, and other paper products
- Artwork and photographs
- Sports equipment
- Clothing and bedding
- Collectibles
- Metal appliances and electronics
- Wood furniture and other wooden items
- Leather jackets and furniture
- Musical instruments
- Historic, sentimental, or unique items that can't be replaced
