Storing Outside The Box, Pantry or Refrigerator

How often have you heard of someone renting a unit at a self storage facility to store food? Most likely you will not know of any private person who does this, but you will be surprised to learn that this is a trend far more common than you think!  Here are some amazing facts about what happens when your food storage needs require remote storage:

• Remote food storage is actually a must for religious organizations, shelters, and even private individuals who may not have the storage space to house pallets of donated cans, goods, and other non perishable items.

• Those renting remote food storage units will usually enlist the help of a climate controlled self storage facility that will make access to the cans and cartons easy, convenient, and safe while at the same time ensuring that the quality of the food is not compromised by widely fluctuating temperatures or humidity.

• Savvy food storage clients will rent units on the second floor or higher at a self storage facility. Why? Because it reduces the risk of rodent damage! Generally speaking, these pests stick to the first floor of any storage facility, if they are on the grounds at all.

• Self storage units containing food collectibles are becoming more common. Many individuals have begun to collect food items, such as chocolate coins, marzipan animals, and other lovingly crafted and shaped items made from ingestible material, only to find that the home is not a good place to either store or even display these items.
