1-04-2010 Snow Looks Pretty
January 4, 2010
The recent heavy doses of snow that we have received in Sedalia and Pettis County sure looks pretty, and it is not inconvenient unless you have to be out in it. However, if the possessions that you hold dear are stored in a rental unit in which they might be exposed to these elements, it is inconvenient. It is inconvenient when you go to retrieve these cherished possessions and they have been ruined because they took in moisture when the humidity was high, and that moisture froze and thawed when the weather changed to what we have been experiencing lately. For only a few dollars more each month, you can retrieve the same items that were put into storage. If they are worth storing, they are worth storing for keeps. Bast Storage can do that for you.
12-11-2009 Will the Real Climate Controlled Storage Please Stand Up
December 11, 2009
When we say that we are a climate controlled storage facility, we are serious. “Industry standards” as to temperatures that most climate controlled storage businesses keep their facilities are embarrassing! We keep our rooms 65 -70 degrees in the winter and 73-78 degrees in the summer. Compare that to “industry standards” of 45-55 degrees in the winter and 85-90 degrees in the summer! Why do they even bother trying to control the climate if they are only going to do so in a lame fashion. If you are looking at renting some space, ask at what temperature the facility is kept. You may be surprised. Please know that we going to continue to keep Bast Storage at temperatures that are apparently much nicer than “industry standards.”
11-25-2009 Climate Controlled Storage and Black Friday
November 25, 2009
Just want to put in a quick reminder: After you make that perfect purchase for the Holidays – whether it be a four-wheeler for the big kids or a play kitchen for the small ones – keep it out of sight and secure with a storage room at Bast Storage. We have helped many a Mom and Dad at this time of year. Come see how Santa’s work can become much easier when he/she has a place to store his/her work. Happy Holidays.
11-17-09 Only Climate Controlled Storage Facility in Sedalia with Restrooms
November 17, 2009
As a storage facility that prides itself on catering to the needs of its clients, it is fitting that Bast Storage is the only climate-controlled storage facility in Sedalia or west central Missouri to offer restrooms for its customers. These facilities are available 24/7 for customers. When nature calls a Bast Storage customer, they can answer. When nature sends bad weather, Bast Storage customers already have the answer.
11-6-2009 Self Storage Facilities Weather Economic Storm
November 6, 2009
Because the climate controlled storage facilities are a cut above those that store goods, possessions outside, the demand for ccss rooms tends to not drop as much during periods such as the one we have experienced in the past year. Our customers seem to recognize the value they are receiving even in difficult economic times.
10-29-2009 Storage Rooms Renting More Briskly Lately
October 29, 2009
As is normally the case in Sedalia and West Central Missouri, this time of year moves people and businesses to look for additional storage. This has increased rentals in the last few weeks. I am not sure why the change of the season prompts us all to do this, I only know that it happens. If you have possessions that deserve a decent place for the winter, please give us a call. We are always glad to give tours.
10-21-2009 Climate Controlled Storage Performs Best During Change of Seasons
October 21, 2009
It is during this time of year that clients notice the benefits of climate controlled storage the most. That is because it is during this time that it becomes most noticeable that the possessions that they have stored in a controlled climate environment have NOT taken in moisture as they would have in an outside unit. If you store possessions outside, the humidity gets into them. When the temperature outside changes dramatically, the resulting expansion and contraction of that moisture begins to damage the goods. Goods stored inside are not exposed to the massive Missouri humidity nor the temperature changes.
10-14-2009 Customizing Climate Controlled Storage Rooms
October 14, 2009
Some of our clients have asked us if they could have shelves or outlets installed in their rooms. We want to make the storage experience positive whether it is for your business or personal needs. Many of our clients have discovered that we are so accommodating that it is simply easier to make our storage rooms a more permanent part of their storage needs rather than building and maintaining it themselves. Call us. We like to help.
9-29-2009 Self Storage Prices for Climate Controlled Rooms
September 29, 2009
Our prices for storage space are such that I am surprised that more folks from further away do not see the cost/benefit to driving a bit further for huge savings on monthly rates. People and businesses from Kansas City and Columbia could easily justify driving their possessions, inventory, records, etc. to Sedalia due to the considerably lower monthly rental rates. If you live in Sedalia, these types of rates make storing outside look unreasonable.
9-17-09 Climate Controlled Building Actually Easier to Access
September 17, 2009
Because all of our storage rooms are inside a secure building, they are actually easier to access. Our clients can choose dock-high, pickup truck-high, of walk-in access to our properties depending on what is best for them. Most facilities offer ground level only, forcing customers to get their goods to the level of the facility. You tell us how you will be bringing it to us, and we will accommodate.
