Question 5

What size of self storage unit should I rent?

Accepted Answer

Selecting the right storage unit size depends on the amount of living space you’re moving and the items you need to store. For a one-bedroom apartment, a 5×15 unit (75 sq. ft.) works for a minimalist approach, while a 10×10 unit (100 sq. ft.) offers extra space for more items. For a two-bedroom apartment, a 10×10 unit (100 sq. ft.) suits a moderate amount of belongings, but a 10×15 unit (150 sq. ft.) is better for larger furniture and additional items. A three-bedroom house typically requires a 10×25 unit (250 sq. ft.) to fit furniture and appliances, while a four-bedroom house usually needs a 10×30 unit (300 sq. ft.) to accommodate a significant number of items, including large furniture and outdoor equipment.

Question 6

Can I bring my own lock for the storage unit I'm renting?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can bring your own lock for the storage unit you’re renting, but we highly recommend using our disc locks. Our disc locks are designed to offer superior security and protection for your belongings, as they are more resistant to tampering and forced entry compared to standard locks. If you choose to use our disc lock, you'll benefit from enhanced security and peace of mind knowing your items are well-protected.

Question 8

Do I need a climate-controlled self storage unit?

Accepted Answer

Choosing climate-controlled storage can be a smart investment depending on a few key factors. If you live in an area with extreme temperatures, whether high or low, climate control can protect your belongings from damage caused by temperature fluctuations. It’s also essential if you’re storing valuable or sensitive items, such as antiques, electronics, or documents, that require a stable environment. Additionally, if you plan to store your items for an extended period, climate-controlled storage helps ensure they remain in optimal condition over time.

Accepted Answer

Climate-controlled storage units provide crucial protection for a variety of household items that are sensitive to temperature and humidity changes. Commonly stored items include collectibles such as artwork, stamp collections, and vinyl records, which can be damaged by fluctuating conditions. Electronics like TVs, gaming systems, stereos, and computers benefit from a stable environment to prevent deterioration. Personal items such as books, clothing, and important documents also stay in better condition when stored in a climate-controlled unit.
