COLD STORAGE
Edwards-Lowell
Professional Fur Cold Storage in Los Angeles
Luxury furs require more than a hanger in a closet. Without proper climate control, fur can become dry, faded, infested, or irreversibly damaged. At Edwards-Lowell, we provide on-site cold storage in Los Angeles, designed to protect your investment year-round.
Our state-of-the-art, two-story cold vault is temperature- and humidity-controlled to ensure long-term preservation. Whether you're storing for a season or protecting heirlooms indefinitely, our team offers the most trusted and secure cold storage option in Southern California.
Why Cold Storage Is Essential for Fur Garments
Heat, light, moisture, and insects are the biggest threats to fur. Over time, these factors dry out the hide, cause shedding, attract pests, and degrade natural oils.
Proper cold storage:
- Prevents fur from drying or cracking
- Maintains the integrity and shape of the hide
- Protects against moths and insects
- Preserves natural luster and softness
- Increases the garment’s lifespan significantly
Fur garments should never be stored in warm closets or plastic garment bags. Home air conditioning is not a substitute for professional cold storage.
On-Site Cold Storage in Los Angeles
At Edwards-Lowell, our cold vault is located inside our Los Angeles facility. This means:
- No third-party handling
- No shipping risks
- Faster retrieval and return times
- Controlled access by trained staff only
Our clients benefit from complete oversight and privacy. Whether you are storing one coat or an entire wardrobe, your garments are protected in our fully secured vault, maintained daily for optimal conditions.

- Wool coats with fur trim
- Vintage and heirloom garments
More Than Storage – A Full Preservation System
Before a garment enters our vault, it is inspected and, if needed, prepared for storage. We recommend having your fur cleaned and glazed prior to storage to remove oils, dirt, and odor that attract insects.
Available services before storage include:
- Fur cleaning and reconditioning
- Glazing to enhance sheen and texture
- Minor repairs or reinforcement
- Storage preparation and inventory labeling
Clients who opt for cleaning and inspection prior to storage enjoy faster service when retrieving garments and longer-lasting results.

Your schedule and wardrobe needs may change quickly. That’s why we offer fast and flexible garment retrieval. Whether you need your item back for an event, travel, or restyling appointment, we can have it ready with minimal notice.
