Worried about heat, cold, or humidity ruining your stuff? Climate-controlled storage, or “temperature-controlled storage,” maintains an indoor temperature range between 50°F to 80°F with stable humidity to protect items such as furniture, electronics, and photographs from warping, molding, or falling apart. SpareFoot makes it easy to find and reserve the right climate-controlled storage unit for your needs.
When it comes to safeguarding your possessions, climate-controlled storage offers numerous benefits, such as protecting your belongings from temperature fluctuations, guarding against humidity-related damage, and providing advanced security measures.
Items | Why you need climate control |
|---|---|
| Humidity can corrode internal components, damage screens, and lead to malfunction or shortened lifespan. Climate control keeps moisture and temperature stable, so your electronics stay functional. | |
If you’re storing wedding dresses, vintage clothing, designer items, hats, garments with lace or leather, etc., climate control can help preserve fabric integrity and value. | |
| Organic materials on your furniture are vulnerable to mold and mildew. Climate control will protect against both long-term damage and unpleasant odors. | |

| Wine requires stable temperatures and humidity to avoid premature aging and oxidation. Many storage facilities offer storage lockers specifically catered to optimal wine storage | |
| Instruments can crack, warp, or lose tuning due to changes in temperature or humidity. You can keep them in playable condition by using climate control to preserve their shape and sound quality. | |
| Climate control will protect your items from warping, melting, and discoloring over time. | |
Humidity levels are important for the preservation of your antiques (grandfather's clocks, artwork, etc.) and collectibles (stamps, coins, comic books, etc.). | |
| Extreme temperatures can cause adhesives to lose their stickiness. Climate control can prevent damage to materials like latex and plastic and keep your supplies safe. | |
| Climate control can prevent makeup and toiletries from drying out or cracking, getting too damp (making it a breeding ground for bacteria), melting, and more. | |
The amount of metal present in household appliances makes rust an issue in places with high humidity. Choose climate control to protect valuable items such as fridges against extreme temperatures. | |
| Sporting gear is susceptible to cracking and breaking in extreme temperatures. With climate control, you can keep them in tip-top shape during off-season storage. |
