Storage Unit Size FAQs
Do I need extra space for walking or access inside the unit?
It’s a good idea to leave some room to move around or access items, especially for long-term storage. Choosing a slightly larger unit can make it easier to get to the things you need without moving stuff around.
Do larger storage units cost significantly more?
Larger units typically cost more than smaller ones, but the price per square foot is often better. If you’re close to needing more space, sizing up can sometimes be more cost-effective than overfilling a smaller unit.
Can I upgrade or switch storage unit sizes later?
Yes, in most cases you can move to a different size if your storage needs change. Availability will depend on current openings, so it’s always best to check.
Are storage unit sizes exact or approximate?
Storage unit sizes are approximate and based on the unit’s width and depth. The actual usable space can vary slightly depending on door placement, interior layout, and how items are arranged.
