Dubai’s Possessions Remain Undamaged In Spite Of Floods

PR Log (Press Release) – Mar 22, 2010 – Those who were familiar with the concept of storing their cars, RV’s, bikes and other belongings at a storage unit in Dubai were highly benefitted during the floods.

The first few months of the year are never dull for the citizens of Dubai.  The weather is usually pleasant and calm. But this year the month of February was unwelcomed in UAE. As the drainage system in Dubai is not highly equipped to manage a sudden pour of rain water, this city was faced with a stand still. Life was interrupted for a few days and was also changed for many after the food that took place on the 27th of February 2010.

In UAE, Dubai and Sharjah were tremendously affected by the floods. Many families turned homeless and lost their possessions as well. Insurance companies denied their customers of providing insurance for damaged vehicles as this was the case of a natural disaster and not an accident or another situation. But those who were familiar with the concept of storing their cars, RV’s, bikes and other belongings at a storage unit in Dubai were highly benefitted this time. Sharjah doesn’t have many storage companies, but lucky for Dubai there were around ten storage facilities that people could choose from.

Since storage facilities are built on a height the belongings or vehicles placed in them were completely safe from the flood water. Of course only those vehicles that weren’t so much in use were entrusted to the Dubai storage facilities. Therefore, at least some of Dubai’s possessions remained undamaged in spite of the floods.

People were warned about the rainfall that was going to take place. Few paid heed to the messages and news on the television and radio. But those who decided to act smartly before time, did manage to save some of what they had by rightly storing their valuables in a rented unit.

If not floods, then extreme heat or cold could extract the best out of belongings. In times of unpredictable climatic conditions in Dubai, citizens prefer saving their belongings only at storage facilities in Dubai.
