If you live in Clarksville, a storage unit can be the perfect place to put your personal items when they’re not in use, when you’re in the middle of a move, or when you just need some more room in your house. However, sometimes, just a standard storage unit won’t do, and climate-controlled self-storage is ideal. Here are a few items that you should keep in Clarksville climate-controlled self-storage: 1. Collectibles and Musical Instruments If you’re a Clarksville resident, there is a strong chance that you either keep collectibles, play a musical instrument, or both. Indeed, there are multiple collectible stores within Clarksville, and Clarksville hosts many music events and festivals throughout the year, including Riverfest, which features music. Special collections and musical instruments are two things that should always be kept in a climate-controlled self-storage unit, as things like heat and humidity can cause significant damage to these items others. If a musical instrument is subject to poor temperature and humidity, it can warp or strings can be damaged, resulting in a serious change in tune. 2. Electronic Equipment No matter who you are or where you live, you’re bound to have some sort of electronic equipment or appliances, ranging from televisions to computers to washing machines and more. When you choose a climate-controlled storage unit, the unit will provide a greater level of protection against things like rust, mold, and mildew that a non-climate-controlled unit would. If parts of electronic equipment are damaged by rust, this can cause permanent device malfunction or failure. 3. Clothing and Gear As the seasons change, so may your clothing and your activities. What’s more, if you live in Clarksville, then chances are that you have taken advantage of your proximity to the Land Between the Lakes Recreation Area a time or two, and plan to do so again in the future. If so, you probably have camping gear, fishing gear, boating gear, hunting equipment, and more. All of your clothing and outdoor gear should be stored in a climate-controlled unit to help prevent against mildew, as well as the dangers of rust (listed above). Heat and humidity can wreak havoc on sports equipment and all clothing types.
