From the Liver Mush Festival to Christmas
If you’re a Cleveland County local, you know our calendar runs on a rhythm all its own. One minute, we’re gearing up for the Liver Mush Festival in Shelby, enjoying that unique local flavor, and the next, we’re stringing up thousands of twinkling lights for Christmas. We love our seasons here in Grover, but let’s be honest: each one comes with a lot of stuff.

It’s time to embrace the seasonal self-storage unit.I’m not talking about a massive, expensive locker. I’m talking about a smart, local, right-sized solution, like the one we have right here in town. I’m talking about C & C Storage Center Inc. at 106 Royal Dr.
This isn't just a faceless company; it's a local spot that understands our specific needs. They specialize in Non-Climate Self-Storage Options, which might sound intimidating given our humidity, but here’s the secret: with a little prep, it’s the most practical and affordable way to go.
