Storage in Grande Prairie: Do You Really Need Climate Control?

When people hear “no climate control,” they often imagine their items baking in a metal box—or freezing solid in the winter. But that’s not the reality at Cans N Boxes. Most Grande Prairie residents don’t actually need heated or air-conditioned storage. Here’s why.


🚚 Sea Can Units Built for Canadian Conditions

At Cans N Boxes, we use modified shipping containers known for their durability and weather resistance. These steel containers are:

  • ✅ Water-tight and wind-resistant

  • ✅ Rodent-resistant

  • ✅ Vented for airflow to reduce condensation

We inspect and maintain our units regularly, so you can be confident your stuff stays dry and protected.


🧤 What You Can Safely Store (Even in Winter)

Our customers safely store a wide range of items year-round, including:

  • Furniture (wood, leather, plastic)

  • Seasonal equipment (quads, bikes, boats)

  • Business inventory and tools

  • Household items (boxes, décor, baby gear)

  • Moving and downsizing overflow

If it can safely be stored in a garage, it can safely be stored in our units.


⚠️ What Not to Store in Non-Climate Units

To keep it real—some items don’t belong in non-climate-controlled storage:

  • Paint or chemicals

  • Photographs and delicate artwork

  • Musical instruments

If you're not sure, just ask. We'll give you honest advice based on our local experience.
