First Time Self Storage Guide


Self-storage is an affordable, efficient way for you to store your life's possessions. Self-storage makes it easy to store items of all shapes and sizes in one convenient storage location. How do I use it? Self-storage can be used for many purposes: - As an extension of your home; a place to store seldom used items - To store seasonal items such as decorations, sports equipment, lawn mowers or snow blowers or bicycles while you're waiting for the snow to melt! - As a business storage solution to de-clutter your office, store important documents, extra office furniture for upsizing or downsizing, or additional inventory - To free up garage space so you can actually park your car in a sheltered environment and many more!
Create a list of the items that you are going to be storing. Choosing the right size unit will ensure that you only pay for the storage you need. Visit our size guide to determine exactly what size you will need, and then check out our helpful storing tips for maximizing your storage space!
Our month to month rentals give you the flexibility to choose just how long you will require your unit. Most people think that they may only need storage for 6 months or a year depending on their circumstances. Planning ahead and determining what kind of space your belongings will take up is a good start.
You provide the lock ensuring that you, and only you, have access. Don't have a lock? No problem, we offer a wide range of locks, packing and moving supplies to make your move stress-free. Even better, we offer a wide selection of moving supplies at very affordable prices.
