Self Storage

​

What should or should not be stored in a self-storage unit?

A self-storage is an excellent option for storing the overflow of many different types of materials from your home or business. We recommend storing unused or large items such as furniture or appliances. We do not allow for hazardous materials, chemicals or other flammable liquids.

 

What types of items are usually stored in a self-storage unit?

​

While there are numerous items that are allowed to be stored in our units, the most common items include furniture, bicycles and belongings such as clothes or unused appliances. However, anything from holiday decorations to large furniture pieces may be stored in our facilities. We do not allow for any hazardous items such as flammable material or liquids and chemicals.

 

What are the security options for self-storage?

When selecting a self-storage facility you'll want to understand what kind of security is in place to keep your items secure. We offer 24 security recordings, 7 days a week to protect your belongings.

 

How should I choose the right size self-storage unit?

Estimating how much space you will need for your storage items can be easy if you know what you want to store. Here are some simple guidelines to assess your self-storage needs.

 

Our smaller self-storage units are 5 x 5, 5 x 10, and 5 x 15 and are great for storing small seasonal items, extra clothing boxes, office supplies, books, or other small items. Typically, they have 8 – 10 foot high ceilings so if you pack well you may fit more than you expect into one of these smaller units.

 

Our average sized unit is anything within the 10 x 10 to the 10 x 20 range. These units contain plenty of space to hold the contents of a typical one-bedroom apartment (more or less depending on the unit size). One hundred square feet allows for plenty of space for two full rooms of furniture including sofas, bedroom furniture, kitchen appliances, and much more. You will probably even have room for extra boxes of clothing, kitchen items, seasonal items, or office records.

 

Our larger self-storage units are 10 x 25 – 10 x 30 and they provide plenty of space for 5 – 7 rooms of furniture or office equipment. It is a great sized unit to store boxes, bicycles, or smaller furniture items.  

 

Should I be Insuring my stored items?

Whether you are planning to store business or personal belongings it's important to insure them since items in self-storage aren't generally covered by other policies such as homeowner or rental insurance

 

Can I store my vehicle in the self-storage facility?
