Storage pods, what you need to know
For example, if you plan to pack the unit and leave it packed until you are ready to empty it, you will need a unit just large enough to hold your belongings. However, if you plan to visit the unit to retrieve objects, treating it like a long term warehouse instead of short term storage, you will need to leave space for aisles so you can reach objects at the back. You may even need space for shelving, both to make it easier to find your belongings and to protect delicate objects. Picking the optimum level of climate control is also essential. Many common belongings, like dishes, cooking utensils, and rugs that are not antiques, stone furniture, and most glassware, can withstand most ranges of temperature and do not need temperature control.
