🛋️ Why Climate Control Matters for Furniture in Texas For Palmer residents, furniture isn’t just functional — it’s often a significant investment or a cherished family heirloom. But in Texas, the heat and humidity can cause serious damage to wood, leather, and fabric. That’s why climate-controlled storage units are the best solution to protect your belongings.

🌡️ 1. Defend Against Heat & Humidity

Texas summers can be extreme. Without protection, furniture can:
  • Warp or crack (wood pieces)
  • Dry out and peel (leather upholstery)
  • Grow mold or mildew (fabric and cushions)
Climate-controlled units maintain a steady temperature and humidity level to prevent these issues.

🧼 2. Prep Furniture Before Storing

Even with climate control, preparation is key:
  • Clean surfaces to remove dirt, oils, and residues.
  • Polish wood to lock in moisture and prevent drying.
  • Use breathable covers instead of plastic to avoid trapped humidity.
  • Disassemble larger items (like beds or tables) for easier and safer storage.

📦 3. Organize for Long-Term Safety

How you place your furniture in the unit matters:
  • Store sofas and mattresses upright to save space.
  • Use pallets or shelves to keep items off the floor.
  • Leave walkways between furniture for airflow and easy access.
