Being a musician requires that you have instruments and all the accoutrements associated with making sweet music.

Here are five reasons to get a Lock Up Self Storage unit for your musical gear:<\/p>\n

5 Ways The Lock Up Supports Musicians and Their Gear<\/span><\/h2>\n
    \n
  1. Each and every Lock Up Self Storage facility provides the relief of a totally secure place to store precious gear. For any musician, ensuring that your gear is safe and secure is a top priority. Collecting all of the right pedals, microphones and guitars takes not only time, but money as well; and any seasoned musician knows the sorrow associated with losing any one of said items. Storing gear in a Lock Up Self Storage facility between gigs is a great way to ensure that it is safe and sound.<\/li>\n
  2. Many Lock Up Self Storage facilities have indoor loading docks that are completely out of the elements. This is really helpful to musicians who are constantly loading their gear in and out for shows. Even in Chicago\u2019s infamous weather, a musician using a Lock Up Self Storage indoor loading dock can rest assured that their instruments won\u2019t get pelted by rain, sleet, snow or hail.<\/li>\n
  3. Climate controlled storage units are the perfect place to store musical instruments. Storing your gear in a climate controlled Lock Up storage unit will protect even the most sensitive electronics such as amps, keyboards and pedals from extreme temperature fluctuations and damaging moisture.<\/li>\n
  4. Not every musician has room in his or her apartment for all the musical gear that they own\u2026especially if you\u2019re a drummer. The Lock Up has storage units ranging from 5\u2019x5\u2019 up to 10\u2019x30\u2019 so you can pick the size unit that\u2019s tailored to your needs. Whether you\u2019re a one man band, or a full fledged orchestra, The Lock Up has a storage solution right for your down times between gigs.<\/li>\n
  5. These days, one of the best ways for a band to make money is through merchandise. Unfortunately, to get a good deal on t-shirts, hats and CD\u2019s, it\u2019s usually best to buy in bulk. But, where in the world do you store boxes filled with thousands of units of band merch? In a Lock Up Self Storage unit, that\u2019s where! Why get on your roommate\u2019s bad side by filling up your dining room with boxes when you can store them in a Lock Up unit where they\u2019re safe and secure?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
