What To Look For In A Storage Facility

dino's mast

Storage facilities can be found in old and new communities across the country. There are several factors you should consider before making your decision on what facility you will store your belongings with.

  • Cost – Shop around and get prizes from several facilities. Be sure to understand what your exact financial responsibility will be.
  • Size – What size will you need and is that size available?
  • Climate – Do you need climate or non-climate control? Will your items be stored on cement or dirt? Does the facility have the potential to flood?
  • Insurance – Do you currently have a renter or home owner’s policy? Check with your agent to see what your coverage is. Does the facility provide any coverage you can purchase?
  • Security – Secure your unit with a “closed shackle padlock” commonly known as a disc lock. Does the facility have a security gate/door? Is the property fenced? Does it have security cameras?
  • Access – What hours do you have access? Is your unit easily accessible? Does the facility provide moving equipment you can access?
  • Contract – Does the facility offer a written lease? Be sure to understand the terms of the lease from payment to termination requirements. Make sure the facility has multiple ways of contacting you.

At Dino’s Storage Bondurant, you are financially responsible for your monthly rent, a $10 application fee, and your padlock. We do have insurance and packing supplies available for purchase. We are a non-climate control facility with 5×10, 10×10, 10×20, and 10×25 size units available. Your items are stored on cement and we are a well drained facility. You have access 24/7 and will be provided a code for our security gate. We are fenced and have cameras on the property. Our leases are on a month to month basis.

The Importance of Community Involvement

Community involvement is the process of engaging in dialogue and collaboration with community members. This may involve volunteer work, promotion of social causes, or donations to local charities. It is understanding your surroundings, working with others to improve the community, anticipating and providing services as the community evolves, and working diligently to provide a positive experience.

What impact are you leaving on your community?  Are you leaving a distinct impression on the lives you are touching?  Are you even known?  It is so important to be involved and to understand what is going on in your community.  As Mother Teresa so eloquently said, ” I alone cannot change the world, but I can cast a stone across the waters to create many ripples.”  Make sure you are having a positive impact on your community.

We at Dino’s Storage try to be at the fore-front of anticipating and providing our services as our communities are changing. Whether you are a business or individual, we will work hard to meet your needs. Please feel free to call and discuss your situation and ask about our specials.
