Aquariums Thousands of people across the country love to collect personal aquariums for their homes. These aquariums are great for admiring marine life, and adults and children alike are fascinated by the different types of exotic fish they can collect and watch in the comfort of their own living rooms. Aquariums are also expensive, especially higher-end tanks with water filtering systems and tempered glass. Often, these types of aquariums stop being used if the fish die off or if the family can’t keep taking care of the fish, such as the case might be in a move or the death of a loved one. Aquariums are a unique item, but they keep well in our Alhambra self-storage. Our storage units give families and individuals a place to keep an aquarium until it is needed again or until they are able to find a seller. Considering how much space these can take up in a home, self-storage may be one of the most viable options. Antiques There are some very interesting types of antiques that some families acquire, such as one man who went on Antiques Roadshow with 18th-century Chinese rhinoceros horn cups appraised at 1 to 1.5 million dollars. Not every Alhambra family will have a rare find as valuable as these, but a lot of families will still have precious items that they don’t want to keep in their homes where they can experience normal wear and tear. Consider keeping your valuable antiques at our storage facility where you can even rent a unit with climate control, a feature that will prevent heat and moisture from potentially ruining your valuable memories of the past. Taxidermy Animals In the US, taxidermy is a huge interest that many find very strange. As odd as it might be to some, there are even taxidermy competitions and a national taxidermy association. A lot of individuals own a taxidermy collection, and those with a taxidermy collection they would like to keep safe, a storage unit may be the best deal. The time and cost of taxidermy is substantial, wherein Alhambra storage may be able to help you preserve your collection. Your animals will be out of the elements and there is very little risk of exposure to extra moisture or heat, both of which can ruin your pieces.
