And while this is great for children of young ages up through college years, as collectors grow older and begin families of their own, room to store collectible figures isn\u2019t always readily available.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMost action figure collectors enter the hobby before they have a spouse or growing family,\u201d says Corey Tincher, community manager and action figure enthusiast with <a title=\"DASH\" href=\"https:\/\/siggysparadise.com\/dash\/home\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">DASH<\/a>, an online community for sharing, managing, buying, and selling action figure collections.<\/p>\n<p>Being single allows you to keep your collection close at home, but once a significant other, spouse, or family enters the picture, space disappears fast. &#8220;I run into countless collectors trying to sell their beloved figures because of this very scenario,&#8221; Tincher adds.<\/p>\n<p>Enter self storage. By renting a storage unit for an action figure collection, you have enough space to store your entire collection, large or small, in a safe place away from home.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHaving access to a dedicated storage locker could easily prevent [stress and] still maintain the value and investment of the collection,\u201d Tincher explains. &#8220;A vast majority of collectors could store their entire collection in a 10&#215;10 storage unit with some organization and maximization of the vertical space.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Find the Best Storage Unit for Your Action Figure Collection<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cAction figures can be a nightmare to store without an organizational system and the raw real estate to hold them,&#8221; says Tincher. &#8220;Using a storage unit to store one&#8217;s figures enables an action figure collector to focus on both of those aspects without dedicating an entire room (or more) in their home to the process.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>When it comes to finding a storage unit, Tincher believes you can always find the exact <a title=\"Storage.com - Self Storage Size Guide\" href=\"https:\/\/www.storage.com\/self-storage-size-guide\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">storage unit size<\/a> you need. Plus, he adds, it\u2019s easy to go up a size at your storage facility.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<blockquote class=\"td_pull_quote td_pull_center\"><p>&#8220;Action figures can be a nightmare to store without an organizational system and the raw real estate to hold them.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"source\">Corey Tincher, community manager and action figure enthusiast with DASH<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s always good to ask the manager what\u2019s available on the site,\u201d says Guido Tebano, Vice President of Sales at <a title=\"Treasure Island Storage\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tistorage.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Treasure Island Storage<\/a>, a family-owned chain of storage facilities in New York and New Jersey. \u201cSometimes, you don\u2019t have a cookie-cutter space. Sometimes, instead of a 5&#215;5, you have a 4&#215;8.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For those who plan to frequently visit their collections or plan\u00a0to add to it\u00a0in storage, Tebano recommends going with a slightly larger storage unit. This makes it easier to organize your collection within your unit, as well as create a path in the unit to access items in the front and back.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Protecting Your Action Figure Collection in Self Storage<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>When it comes to protecting your collection, there are a number of factors to consider. Do you live in a city with high summer temperatures? Are you concerned about your collection being stolen or vandalized?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPeople tend to always ask, \u2018Is my stuff safe?&#8217;\u201d says Tebano.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re worried about extreme temperatures and humidity damaging your collection, both Tincher and Tebano recommend finding a storage unit equipped with <a title=\"Storage.com - Climate-Controlled Storage\" href=\"https:\/\/www.storage.com\/climate-controlled\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">climate control<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.storage.com\/climate-controlled\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-12233\" src=\"https:\/\/www.storage.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Climate-Controlled-Storage.png\" alt=\"Climate-Controlled-Storage\" width=\"600\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.storage.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Climate-Controlled-Storage.png 600w, https:\/\/www.storage.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Climate-Controlled-Storage-570x190.png 570w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cAction figures don&#8217;t necessarily require climate-controlled environments, but it could be beneficial in very extreme climates,&#8221; says Tincher. &#8220;Very high heat\u201490\u00b0F or more\u2014can be detrimental to the condition and structural integrity of many kinds of figures. Similarly, freezing temperatures can contribute to moisture issues, crack the plastic bubbles of figures, and create brittle rubber and plastic.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<blockquote class=\"td_pull_quote td_pull_center\"><p>&#8220;People tend to always ask, \u2018Is my stuff safe?\u2019&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"source\">Guido Tebano, Vice President of Sales at Treasure Island Storage<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>According to Tebano, the key is avoiding major fluctuations in temperature within the unit, which is why most storage facilities offer units with climate control. Renters should keep in mind, he adds, that it\u2019s not like an apartment building, and optimal storage temperature may not be the most comfortable.<\/p>\n<p>As far as protecting your collection from theft of vandalism, Tebano suggests finding a storage facility with <a title=\"Storage.com - Storage Security\" href=\"https:\/\/www.storage.com\/blog\/understanding-self-storage-security-features\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">state-of-the-art security features<\/a>, like gated access and video surveillance. He also encourages would-be renters to find a facility with on-site management.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf you have a lot of bells and whistles, but you have a manager who\u2019s never on site or staff that\u2019s not looking at what\u2019s going on in the facility, what\u2019s the point?\u201d Tebano asks.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMany action figure collections can exceed six figures in value,\u201d says Tincher. \u201c[Security] is ultimately up to the collection and their perception of value, but it\u2019s always better to be safe than sorry.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>How to Organize Your Collection in a Storage Unit<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Before any organization begins, Tincher recommends cleaning any loose figures to avoid any debris from adhering to the figure or staining the paint. To further prevent any smearing or smudging of paint, he says each loose figure can be placed in its own plastic bag to keep figures from touching each other directly.<\/p>\n<p>Tincher says both loose and boxed figures should be set in sealed containers before moving your collection to storage. \u201cPlastic storage tubs that snap shut are perfect, as they can help keep our moisture, light, and any potentially troublesome insects,\u201d he adds.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s also always good to label boxes,\u201d says Tebano, adding that it may be beneficial to explore organization apps for smartphones to know exactly what&#8217;s in each box. As far as placing these boxes, Tebano says it\u2019s ideal to create an aisle or store the boxes along the walls. Some facilities may even offer rentals on shelving, giving you access to vertical organization.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<blockquote class=\"td_pull_quote td_pull_center\"><p>&#8220;Being able to separate figures into different lines, series, or by size\/scale on different shelves will help you keep everything sorted\u2026\u2019&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"source\">Corey Tincher, community manager and action figure enthusiast with DASH<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>\u201cAny time a storage unit provides options for organization like in-unit shelving, it&#8217;s definitely going to help,&#8221; says Tincher. &#8220;Being able to separate figures into different lines, series, or by size\/scale on different shelves will help you keep everything sorted and accessible in a convenient way in case you want to move figures from storage or add more in the future.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Once all your action figures are placed in a storage unit, there\u2019s no reason you can\u2019t continue to collect with further conveniences offered\u00a0by storage facilities.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s a lot of things people don\u2019t realize about storage that they can utilize, especially collectors,\u201d says Tebano. \u201cAn interesting feature people may not recognize is that some facilities have package-acceptance.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For collectors buying online, this means your new figure or bust can be sent directly to your facility, where it will be signed for and protected until you pick it up. And if you&#8217;re looking to sell a piece in your collection, Tebano says many online sellers operate out of a storage unit.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"watch-the-video\">Watch the Video:<\/h2>\n<div>\n<p><object width=\"582\" height=\"327\"><param name=\"allowfullscreen\" value=\"true\" \/><param name=\"allowscriptaccess\" value=\"always\" \/><param name=\"movie\" value=\"https:\/\/vimeo.com\/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=115211092&amp;force_embed=1&amp;server=vimeo.com&amp;show_title=0&amp;show_byline=0&amp;show_portrait=0&amp;color=6bc4ea&amp;fullscreen=1&amp;autoplay=0&amp;loop=0\" \/><embed src=\"https:\/\/vimeo.com\/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=115211092&amp;force_embed=1&amp;server=vimeo.com&amp;show_title=0&amp;show_byline=0&amp;show_portrait=0&amp;color=6bc4ea&amp;fullscreen=1&amp;autoplay=0&amp;loop=0\" type=\"application\/x-shockwave-flash\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" allowscriptaccess=\"always\" width=\"582\" height=\"327\" \/><\/object><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If there\u2019s one thing that action figure collectors know, it\u2019s that they must be kept in mint condition.
