If you are considering getting a storage unit in Orlando, Florida, you want to make sure the unit and facility you choose are clean, well maintained, and staffed by a competent staff who can help you when the need arises. The best way to determine that these are the case with a prospective storage facility is to speak with a member of the staff before you sign a lease for a unit. When you speak with a facility's staff, ask the following questions. The staff members are there to help you and to guide you toward the right decisions regarding your storage needs, to make full use of your relationship with them. What Types of Security Measures Are in Use? Always make it a point to discuss security with the staff of a storage facility. Security for your items should be your top priority. Ask about the specific security measures in place, such as video surveillance and on-site security guards. If a facility's security measures seem to be lacking, do not rent a unit there. What Are the Terms of My Lease? Before you sign a lease, clarify all terms of the lease with a staff member. Discuss when payment is due, whether there is a grace period for payments, conduct that could void your lease, and who is liable for your damages if your items are damaged while they are in storage. Never sign a document that you do not fully understand. Are Any Items Prohibited from Being Stored in My Unit? Certain items are prohibited from our storage facility because they post a safety hazard to our tenants and staff. Other items are prohibited because they are illegal to possess. Each facility has its own list of prohibited items, so be sure to discuss this list with a staff member before you sign a lease. This discussion should be a part of the greater discussion about the terms of your lease and your responsibilities as a tenant. How Can I Best Utilize My Space? If you have never rented a storage unit before, you might not know which size unit you actually need. Many first time renters make the mistake of renting a larger unit than they actually need because they do not know how to use the space contained within it efficiently. Talk with a staff member about the items you need to store to determine the right unit size for you. Why an Orlando Storage Unit with US Storage Centers?
