What belongs in one
Pick climate control for these.
Heat and humidity do their damage slowly. You don't notice until you open the door months later.
Wood furniture
Heat and damp swell joints and lift veneer. Antiques especially.
Mattresses and upholstery
Fabric holds humidity, and humidity is how mildew starts.
Electronics
Condensation inside a TV or computer is the expensive kind of damage.
Paper and photographs
Documents, books, and prints curl, stick, and yellow in a hot unit.
Instruments
Guitars and pianos go out of tune and out of true with the temperature.
Business records
Files you're legally required to keep readable for years.
Fewer climate units than standard.
They're the ones that go first. Call (256) 302-5555 to see what's open before you move.
