Things Self Storage Customers Should Check
Submitted as: irahetameurer
Storehouses are meant to provide additional storing space to people. Self storage customers should check certain things in order to make the most of this facility.
Locality
While hiring a storehouse you should be wary about its location. This means you should gather information about the crime rate in that area. If burglaries are common in the area, then you should definitely avoid that warehouse, even if it is available at rock bottom prices.
Construction Of The Store Units And Storehouse
You should check the construction of the store unit like whether it is made of concrete, wood, vinyl or metal. The unit should be strong enough to protect your goods from natural disasters and thieves. The storehouse should have strong and high boundary walls and good lighting and security systems to ensure safety.
Discounted Units
Offering discounts on the store units is the most common trick used by storage owners to attract customers. However, storage customers should be a little wary while renting such units. Some companies do not give true discounts. They give units at low rates by sacrificing on the services offered. If you plan to hire a discounted unit, then you should check the facilities provided by the storehouse. You should neither compromise on security nor on cleanliness.
Lease Agreement
Some self storage customers do not pay enough attention to the lease agreement. Before renting the unit, you should check the sample lease agreement and after renting the unit, you should check the final lease agreement before signing it. Verify your name, address and identification name on the unit that you have rented. Check the services included - the lease period, the rates at which the services are offered and other terms and conditions of the lease agreement. Even a small error in the lease agreement can cause problems and therefore it is important to check it in detail.
Reputation Of The Unit
You should verify the reputation of the storehouse before hiring the store unit. There are various web sites that provide information on storehouses. The information comprises services provided by the storehouses, their location, and even feedback on them. Checking such web sites would make your search for the right storehouse easier.
Climate Controlled Facility
While hiring a climate-controlled facility, you should check what type of backup arrangement is available in case the HVAC system fails. Only if the system operates 24 X 7, 365 days of the year, will it help in the safekeeping of your items. Moreover, check if the company allows the customers to set the temperature and humidity of the unit according to the requirement of their goods, or whether all the units are set at a standard temperature and humidity.
If the storage customers take informed decisions, they can truly enjoy the several benefits of the safekeeping facility. Do not lease the first self storage you come across, do proper research before you make the final decision.(read
