Dri-guard humidity controlled storage is the result of careful research on the best way to protect valuables over time. Originally, these humidity control systems were developed to protect archives and sensitive electronics. The Smithsonian, Volvo, Boeing, and the U.S. Military have all trusted Dri-guard technology to protect their equipment. Even today, Air Force One and Two are today protected in their hangars by these humidity control systems.

Uncle Bob's Self Storage began installing humidity controlled storage spaces as it became apparent that lower humidity slowed the destructive forces of mold, mildew and corrosion. In 2000, Uncle Bob's opened its first Dri-guard Humidity Control building.

Dri-guard is a centrally monitored air treatment system which pumps dry air throughout the humidity-controlled building. Don't be fooled by imitations - this is not a canned moisture-retardant or a portable dehumidifier! If another storage facility claims to have humidity control, be sure to ask for details.

Dri-guard is so effective that we are able to use it for storage spaces with large roll-up doors and drive-up access. Just thirty minutes after you close the door to your Dri-guard space, it will be back to a safe relative humidity level.

Some Uncle Bob's Self Storage facilities also offer Dri-guard Plus storage spaces, which combine the comfort of climate controlled spaces with the safety of Dri-guard humidity control.
