Probably in one of those mini
self storage places that are all over the place.
QUESTION:I find myself in a position where I am going to have put some fairly
valuable books into temporary storage. Probably in one of those mini
self storage places that are all over the place. Does anybody have a
packing tips to prevent damage?
ANSWER: I have many of my books in storage in San Diego. I looked for a 3+
story unit and made sure I rented an interior room on the second floor.
That way my books weren't on the ground floor, in case it flooded. And
the top floor absorbed most of the heat. And by getting an interior
room, the sun didn't heat any of the walls.
Cold conditions aren't a problem in San Diego, but I suppose in many
areas of the country, rain, snow, and humidity would be a real concern.
Be sure to ask about vermin control at any storage unit you consider.
