As the temperature rises, storage gets trickier. Heat alone can cause problems, but when moisture tags along, it can create a perfect storm for mold, warping, and long-term damage. Many people load up a standard unit thinking it’ll be fine for a few months, only to return in the fall and find items that are warped, musty, or worse.
That’s where temperature-controlled storage units comes in. It gives your belongings a stable environment with consistent air conditions, even when outdoor temperatures swing. These units are especially helpful for anyone storing wood furniture, paper documents, electronics, or anything sensitive to moisture.
Greylock Storage offers this option at all of our locations—serving homeowners, renters, businesses, and students across the region.
Storage Solutions in Massachusetts
In Western Massachusetts, summer brings a lot of activity. Home renovations, downsizing moves, and seasonal cleanouts are common. In Pittsfield, we regularly see families using temperature-controlled units to hold furniture and household items during transitions. Students from nearby colleges often rent units for the summer months, knowing their dorm gear will stay dry and in good shape until fall.
Adams has a slightly different pace. Many people here look for practical short-term storage—swapping out snow gear, stashing tools, or making extra room for summer visitors. Even for small jobs, it helps to know that the things you store won’t be sitting in a box sweating through July.
Whether you need a little breathing room or are clearing the way for a bigger project, our Massachusetts locations offer self storage that protects what you’re not using right now.

Glens Falls sees a mix of personal and business use, with many customers storing boats, bikes, or patio gear when they’re not in use. Some use the units during a move or cleanout, others to keep home items safe while hosting guests. Either way, knowing their items are protected lets people focus on what’s next.
When you’re storing anything that needs to stay in good condition, consistent air control is the safest option. Our New York facilities offer exactly that.
Portable Storage That Moves With You
Sometimes you need storage at your own pace. Our Go Mini portable units offer flexibility when you’re moving, renovating, or just need a bit more room temporarily. We bring the unit to your location, you fill it when you’re ready, and we can either store it at our facility or leave it on-site until you’re done.
During the summer, portable storage is a popular choice—but if you’re storing anything heat-sensitive long-term, it’s worth moving those items into a temperature-controlled unit once things are packed. We can help you make that transition if needed.
