Frequently Asked Questions About Our Electrical Storage Units
-
How does the electrical billing work for storage units?
Each storage unit at Jumbo Storage has an individually metered electrical service. You'll only pay for the electricity you actually use, billed separately from your monthly rental fee. This system ensures transparency and allows you to control your costs based on your specific usage patterns.
-
What amp service is available in the storage units?
Our storage units come standard with 30/50 amp electrical service, sufficient for most applications including RV hookups, power tools, climate control devices, and general lighting. This professional-grade service exceeds what's typically found in standard storage facilities.
-
Can I run climate control in my storage unit?
Yes, the electrical service in our units is sufficient to power heating, cooling, or dehumidifying equipment. Some clients use this capability to protect sensitive collectibles, electronics, or other items that benefit from controlled environmental conditions.
-
Is it safe to leave electrical devices running when I'm not present?
While our electrical systems are professionally installed and maintained, we recommend using devices designed for unattended operation. Timer switches, thermal cutoffs, and other safety features are advisable for any equipment you plan to leave running. All electrical usage must comply with safety guidelines.
-
Can I upgrade the electrical service if I need more capacity?
Potential electrical upgrades may be possible for long-term tenants with specific needs. Please contact us to discuss your requirements, and we can explore options based on your specific situation.
-
Am I allowed to modify the electrical setup in my unit?
Any modifications to the electrical systems must be pre-approved and performed by licensed professionals. Unauthorized electrical work is strictly prohibited for safety and compliance reasons. Please discuss any desired changes with management before proceeding.
-
Can I operate a business from my storage unit with electrical service?
The City of Asheville has imposed restrictions on the use of Jumbo Storage. While you can store business inventory, files, and equipment, regulations prohibit actually operating a business on the property. The electrical service is intended for maintenance and preservation purposes, not commercial operations.
-
Can I live in my storage unit since it has electrical service?
No. Regulations in the city of Asheville prevent any tenant from living in their Jumbo Storage condominium. Both city restrictions and the association's rules prohibit taking up residence at Jumbo Storage. You can add amenities to make your time there more enjoyable (with owner's approval), but you cannot use it as living quarters.
