North Carolina summers are hot and humid, and winters swing cold, and those conditions are tough on anything you plan to store for more than a few weeks. Wood furniture warps and cracks, electronics collect condensation, paper and photographs curl, fabric and leather grow musty, and instruments fall out of tune. MyPlace Self-Storage in Chapel Hill solves that with climate-controlled units that hold a steadier temperature and humidity level throughout the year, so what you store comes out in the same condition it went in.
Our facility sits on McGhee Road just off US-15/501, a short drive south of downtown Chapel Hill and the University of North Carolina, near Fearrington and New Hope Creek. That location is a real advantage: instead of paying premium prices for cramped storage right next to campus, you get more room and better value just a few minutes down the road. The trip is a straight, easy shot along US-15/501, whether you are coming from campus, Carrboro, Pittsboro, or the Jordan Lake side of Chatham County. Use our unit size guide to find the right fit, with climate-controlled options ranging from compact 5×5 lockers up to spacious 10×30 units.
By keeping conditions stable, our climate-controlled units guard against the warping, cracking, rust, and mildew that temperature and humidity swings cause. They are the right choice for wood and leather furniture, mattresses, electronics and appliances, important documents and business records, photographs and artwork, vinyl and media collections, and musical instruments. If it has sentimental or resale value, climate control is worth it.
These units are popular with a range of customers in our area. University of North Carolina and Duke students use them to protect dorm and apartment belongings over the summer and during semesters abroad, and you can learn more on our student storage page. Local businesses store inventory, files, and equipment that need stable conditions, and families rely on climate-controlled space for personal storage of seasonal items, heirlooms, and the overflow that comes with a move or renovation. Pair any unit with our optional Storage Protection Plan for added coverage.
Because we sit just south of town along the US-15/501 corridor, we are an easy, low-traffic drive for customers across a wide part of the region. We proudly serve customers throughout southern Chapel Hill, Carrboro, and the surrounding communities, including Fearrington Village, Governors Club, Governors Village, Southern Village, Meadowmont, Briar Chapel, Pittsboro, and the areas around Jordan Lake and Chatham County, as well as nearby Durham and Hillsborough.
MyPlace also offers climate-controlled options at nearby North Carolina facilities, including Durham and Elon, so wherever you are in the Triangle, there is a MyPlace within reach.

Great service from the customer service team/manager. Only thing, it would’ve been nice to get the one month free. Evidently that’s for new people not existing customers who needed to downsize their unit
Kia was super helpful!! Thank you!
