What’s the Perfect Storage Unit Size?

- Tips
When renting a storage unit, one of the most common questions is: What size do I really need? Bigger doesn’t always mean better, and smaller isn’t always the most cost-effective. The key is finding the space that truly fits your needs.
Things to Consider:
-
Amount of items to store: Storing a few boxes of documents is not the same as keeping large furniture from a full move.
-
Frequency of access: If you plan to go in and out regularly, choose a unit that allows you to move comfortably.
-
Rental duration: For short-term use (moving, renovations, seasonal needs), a smaller unit may be enough. For long-term storage, it’s better to have extra space.
-
Organization inside: With shelving and smart stacking, you can make the most of a smaller unit.
Size Guide (Approximate):
-
1 to 3 m² (10–30 ft²) → Great for boxes, seasonal clothing, luggage, or small appliances.
-
4 to 6 m² (40–65 ft²) → Ideal for bikes, medium-sized furniture, business files, or sports equipment.
-
7 to 10 m² or more (75–110 ft²) → Best for full house moves, business stock, or large appliances.
