Escondido is located in North San Diego County. Located a bit inland from neighboring beach towns of Encinitas and Carlsbad, Escondido gets a bit warmer. Although residents head to the beach to escape the summer heat, temperature is a factor when choosing Escondido self storage. There are more than 50 storage facilities in Escondido and the bordering cities of San Marcos and Vista. Many of these locations have climate-controlled self storage for renters with items that would be sensitive to summer heat, such as paintings. For the most part however, self storage contents do not require temperature-controlled storage units.
