Choosing the right storage unit can feel overwhelming. A unit that’s too small creates logistical problems, while one that’s too large means you’re paying for unused space. Our goal is to simplify this crucial decision, helping you find the perfect fit that securely holds all of your valued belongings.
How To Choose the Right Size Storage Unit
Start Small for Clutter-Free Living
At Safeguard Mini Storage, our smaller units are perfect for decluttering or storing seasonal items. A 5x5 unit is like an extra closet, ideal for boxes, documents, or small furniture. Upgrading to a 5x10 provides space for a mattress set or sofa. These are excellent, cost-effective solutions for creating more room.
Medium Units for Apartment Moves
When you’re in between homes or need to store the contents of an entire apartment, our medium-sized units are the answer. A 10x10 unit can typically hold furnishings from a one-bedroom apartment, including appliances. These versatile spaces offer a great balance between capacity and value for many common residential storage needs.
Large Spaces for Major Life Events
For significant storage projects like moving from a multi-bedroom house or storing a vehicle, our larger units provide ample room. A 10x20 unit is comparable to a one-car garage and can accommodate the contents of a three or four-bedroom home. We help ensure your largest and most valuable items are protected securely.
Assess Your Inventory Before You Rent
One of the best storage tips we can offer is to make a detailed inventory list before choosing a size. Measure your largest items, like couches and dressers, and consider how you can stack boxes to maximize vertical space. Thinking ahead prevents renting a unit that doesn’t meet your specific long-term requirements.
Choosing the right size is the first step toward a seamless storage experience. By carefully evaluating your inventory and considering our range of options, you can find the ideal space for your needs, giving you valuable peace of mind.
