Your freight needs climate controlled storage
Secure warehouse solutions for temperature-sensitive shipments in Rhode Island, RI.
Your shipment arrived early but your facility isn't ready to receive it. You need somewhere safe to store temperature-sensitive equipment for a few weeks. Regular outdoor storage along I-95 or near the ports won't protect your freight from Rhode Island's humid summers and cold winters.
Climate controlled storage protects freight from temperature swings and humidity damage. Rhode Island's coastal climate means rapid weather changes that can ruin electronics, medical equipment, or other sensitive cargo. Without proper environmental controls, condensation and temperature fluctuations destroy valuable shipments.
Short-term climate controlled storage typically runs $2-5 per square foot per month depending on space requirements and duration. Costs increase for specialized temperature ranges or humidity controls. The size of your shipment and how long you need storage affects pricing more than the type of equipment.
Call Gateway Distribution for secure warehouse space at our climate controlled facility. Ask about cross-docking services to move your freight directly when your facility is ready. Confirm the temperature range and humidity controls match your equipment specifications before committing to any storage provider.
Your freight stays protected from weather damage while you prepare your receiving location. Equipment arrives at your facility in the same condition it left the manufacturer, ready for installation or distribution.

warehouse storage vs own facility
Outside warehouse storage makes sense when your facility costs more per square foot than rental space, or when you need overflow capacity during peak seasons. Look for facilities that offer inventory management and can ship directly to customers. Calculate the total cost including transportation between locations.
