atomised Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 I wouldn't be coming to this forum if I wasn't a long term boardie, and desperate for options. In short, I no longer have space to store my books in my residence due to growing family needs. Is anyone aware of any luxury storage places that can vault high end books anywhere in the US? The only place I am familiar with is UOVO Art, and after touring their facility in San Francisco, I was not impressed. They simply cater to an art audience and do not have an adequate facility for collectibles. Outside of luxury car storage options, I am not finding any facilities that cater to high value collectibles and the like. Any suggestions welcome and greatly appreciated. Basically need a space that can accommodate the equivalent of 10 long boxes under the highest security. If I could put a safe in my residence I would but I simply can't.

Thanks No joke, consider putting them under your bed even if you need to commission a carpenter to help with some custom cabinetry. There are bedstands online that offer more clearance and sometimes forego a traditional box spring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aman619 Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 yeah like the Pharaohs, hire contractors to build you a hidden storage space... but dont forget to kill them all when they are done. Its not pretty, but it works. Dick Pontoon, tth2 and Professor K 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks I hate to go there but is it possible you go through your collection and pick out 10 longs to sell? I'm not a fan of storing my books anywhere else including storage lockers and I have to imagine other options would be very expensive. tth2 and szucchini 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fifties Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 The most logical answer would be to simply sell one of your kids, then use their bedroom as your storage unit. Professor K, buttock, pmpknface and 1 other 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would people store their valuable art in a seismically active place like SF? Professor K 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks My suggestion ...before I duck incoming tomatoes... would be contacting Ft. Knox to see if they have any Airbnb space available.

Its not pretty, but it works. Just like Batman did with the workers who built the Batcave. To the OP I hope you find a place that works for you. Just be sure the humidity and temperature inside is maintained. tth2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Fantastic Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 Would it be possible to buy a small storage shed and have it temperature controlled? Some of these "She sheds" are pretty nice these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
