Storage Unit Sizes
What storage unit sizes do you offer?
Size options will vary from location to location. However, there are six standard sizes available at most of our storage facilities. Storage unit sizes available include:
- 5×5
- 5×10
- 10×10
- 10×15

- 10×30
How do I know what storage unit size I need?
When choosing the right storage unit for you, it is important to think about the number of items you will need storage for and the types of items you will be storing. Generally, if you are only storing a few boxes or several small items, our 5×5 unit is the best choice. If you are storing for a small home, we suggest renting a 10×15 storage unit, and our 10×30 unit is perfect for anyone needing storage for a large home.
