Choosing the right storage unit doesn’t have to be overwhelming. The goal is to find a space that comfortably fits your belongings without paying for more room than you need. Use the tips below to help determine the best unit size for your situation.
Start by making a list of the items you plan to store. Group them into categories like furniture, appliances, boxes, seasonal items, or business inventory. Larger items such as couches, mattresses, and appliances will take up more space, while boxes and smaller items can usually be stacked to save room.
2. Think About How Often You’ll Need Access
If you plan to visit your unit frequently, you may want a little extra space so you can move around easily and reach items without unpacking everything. A slightly larger unit can make loading, unloading, and organizing much easier.
Consider whether you might add more items later. If you’re moving, renovating, downsizing, or running a growing business, choosing a unit with a bit of extra space now can save you from having to switch units down the road.
