The smaller units that are popular with students going home for the summer have higher costs, while the larger units which are not in demand are priced lower than average.

What to Consider when Looking for Storage in Sacramento, CA

Sacramento generally has low rain levels, no snow and sunny weather, but that doesn’t mean climate-controlled units aren’t required. In summer, the temperature averages 93 degrees. This extreme heat can affect some items that are regularly stored, such as electronics, leather and wooden furniture and valuable collections. Photos, in particular, can stick together and disintegrate in high temperatures.

Although the city is generally considered dry, there are days of high humidity, so any belongings that can be damaged by moisture may be better protected in a climate-controlled environment.

The property crime in Sacramento is higher than the California median. Self-storage facilities with good security measures such as video camera monitoring and secure locks can help keep belongings safe.
