Tips & Tricks for Unconditioned Storage

When choosing Unconditioned Storage, humidity levels are significantly higher. The humidity is based on the outside temperature of the mine in the winter. It is not controlled or monitored in this area. There is a risk of mold /mildew damage to your unit.

  • Clean It Up!!! A Clean and Dry Unit (Inside and Outside) gives the Best Storage Experience.
  • Remove all garbage and perishable items.
