  2. INTRODUCTION • There are many options available whether you have to store a vehicle, have a collection of antiques. • With various sizes available, your local facility can recommend the best solution, whether that’s indoor or outdoor, climate controlled, or a premium unit. • Here’s some info about the different types of storage units available to help you get started.

  3. Long Term and Short Term Units • Some people need long-term rentals, while others need units for a day or two. • Determining the duration of your rental will help you sort the types of units available. • If you are uncertain, look for services that do not tie you up into a contract for a specific amount of time.

  4. 2. Outdoor Storage • Outdoor options are used for vehicles including cars, RVs, dirt bikes, tractors, boats, etc. • These areas are best for vehicle storage, as you simply drive into your spot and just drive out again when retrieving it. • They have fencing, gates, and security features such as cameras and guards to keep your vehicles safe from theft and vandalism. • There is also ample space for larger items such as equipment.

  5. 3. Indoor Storage • Indoor storage is located inside a storage building with several security measures in place to ensure only those with units are allowed to enter. • There are various unit sizes available, from smaller, narrow units to larger room size units. • The obvious benefit of an indoor unit is that your unit is protected from the elements and your belongings are out of sight from prying eyes looking for an opportunity for theft.

  6. 4. Climate Controlled Units • Climate control is always a good thing, as it protects your belongings from shifts in temperature. • With climate control, you will reduce the risk of damage to your goods caused by humidity. • Humidity causes damage not only to wood, but also metal which can rust. • Climate and humidity control are very important if you are storing your items over a long period of time to avoid rust, mildew and mould.

  7. 5. Mobile Storage • Mobile storage is a good solution for temporary warehousing for a renovation or while you in the middle of a house shifting. • You don’t have to worry about goods damage and your belongings will be safer in the storage unit. • It saves time as you can just load your things without having to drive it to the storage facility.

  8. 6. Special Storage Units • If you have valuables that require storage such as fine art and antiques, you will want to ensure you have a premium storage unit that takes the special needs of delicate items into consideration. • You might also want increased security features such as individual alarms for your unit. • Individual alarms provide an added security measure, as although other renters can enter the facility, they will set off an alarm if they try to access your unit. • You are provided with a unique code that grants access to your unit alone.

  9. Conclusion When looking for self-storage in Toronto, narrow your options by determining: • how much you're willing to spend • how much security you require • whether you need climate control • how far you can conveniently travel for easy access to your property.
