Climate-Controlled Storage in Williamsburg

The weather gets pretty hot and humid here in the summer, as it should in a beach town! That gives everyone a good reason to come down and hit the waves. Winters can also get pretty cold, sometimes down to freezing at night. Since we are right next to the beach, there’s a slightly salty tang in the air, and that salt can, over time, erode various items. Because of all this, we offer units with climate control to protect against all sorts of climate-related damage.

In climate-controlled units, the temperature is kept between about 50 and 80 degrees, and the humidity between 30% and 50%, perfect temps for keeping your things in great condition.

Business Storage in Williamsburg

Ecommerce has become a big industry. Just have a look on eBay or Etsy to see what we mean. People sell everything from antiques to craft items. We’re happy to provide you with business storage options at Jack Rabbit. One of our units can give you the space you need for your growing inventory at a great price. Self storage space rents for less than commercial or residential space, so instead of moving to a new home, rent a unit here.

If you run any sort of store, in fact, we can provide you with room for your overstock. If your business is overwhelmed with paperwork, keep it here. We’ll keep it safe for when you need it.

Student Storage in Williamsburg

There are quite a few colleges in Williamsburg and the surrounding area, including Thomas Nelson Community College, Centura College, Old Dominican University, and others. College students often find that their dorm rooms or shared apartments are just too small for all their stuff, even if they didn’t bring much. Self storage can help you save money by giving you somewhere to keep your extra things without renting a bigger place. Also, when you go home for the summer, you can store your things with us, knowing they’ll be in great shape when you return to school.

Williamsburg VA Local Info

Located on the Virginia Peninsula, Williamsburg is in the northern part of the Hampton Roads metropolitan area. The city's tourism-based economy is driven by Colonial Williamsburg (the restored Historic Area of the city), which is essentially a living history museum, depicting the lifestyles and culture of the 18th century colonial period in American history. Along with nearby Jamestown and Yorktown, Williamsburg forms part of the Historic Triangle, which attracts more than four million tourists each year.

Also to be found in Williamsburg are two major theme parks, Busch Gardens Williamsburg and Water Country USA, as well as Go-Karts Plus Action Park and 2 miniature golf courses.

The city has been the home to The College of William & Mary since its founding in 1693, making it America's second-oldest college (behind Harvard University). Technically a university, William & Mary was also the first U.S. institution to have a Royal Charter, and the only one to have coat-of-arms from the College of Arms in London.

Our Williamsburg Jack Rabbit location has been proudly serving students attending William & Mary since 1985. Being only about 4 miles from the campus has made Jack Rabbit the number one storage solution for students and surrounding communities for decades.
