In western North Dakota, a hailstorm in July or a blizzard in March can change your plans overnight. When a home needs repair, belongings need a warm, safe place to wait.
Stark County homeowners deal with hail, high winds, heavy snow loads, burst pipes from deep freezes, spring snowmelt flooding, and the occasional grass or structure fire. Repairs can stretch into the cold months, and contractors need rooms cleared out. A storage unit gives furniture, clothing, and keepsakes a clean place to stay until the work is done.
Sub-zero cold is brutal on an unheated garage or damaged house. It cracks plastic, kills batteries, damages electronics when they are moved into a warm room too fast, and can freeze any moisture left in fabric or furniture. Heated, climate-controlled storage avoids those problems. To choose a unit, call Storage Unit of Dickinson at (701) 690-5512 and we will help you plan.
Photograph damage and belongings first and keep a written list by room. Ask your insurer about covered storage costs and keep receipts. Do not store anything wet, moldy, or smoky, and keep fuel, chemicals, and hazardous materials out of the unit.
Recovery takes patience. With belongings safe and organized, you can focus on the repairs and on getting back to normal.
