Preserving cards in humid climate
We are moving to a humid subtropical climate similar to FL. I have many raw valuable cards and some that are slabbed. Are the slabbed ones protected enough from the humidity? Plain paper here gets wavy and eventually musty as do books. Is putting the raw cards in a toploader sufficient to protect them? Also have a few contracts etc. Your advice is very much appreciated

I would definitely dedicate a room with a dehumidifier to the important items you collect.

I agree a dehumidifier might be good. I think (not positive) the slabbed ones will be fine. If it were me I wouldn't worry about those. You can do some googling on the subject and I am sure come up with some good ideas for the raw ones. Most of us, me included, have never had that issue.

Purchase some desiccants and place them with the raw cards. They will soak up some of the moisture in the air. You can find them online.

I have lived right on the Gulf Coast for 7 years now - Have Central AC - Haven't noticed any issues with any cards (slabbed or topload)
