How to Choose the Perfect Storage Unit Size

It’s important to choose the right size storage unit to avoid paying extra for space you don’t need or worse: not having enough space for your belongings. The best way to rent the right size unit is to first make an inventory of the items you will store, including appliances, boxes, furniture, and anything with an odd shape that can’t be stored in a box. If you’re still not sure, keep reading below or contact us and we can assist to estimate the size you need.
