Media Center What Size Storage Unit do You Need?
The size of your storage unit should match the amount
of stuff you plan to put in it, plus a little extra so you can
move around and find what you need when you need it. You don’t
want to pay for space you don't use, but you don’t want to be
stuck in a crowded space where you have to take everything out
every time you want to find something, then fit it all back in
like a jigsaw puzzle!
Remember, if you have exceptionally large or bulky furniture,
such as a remarkable large dining room table without detachable
leaves, or an extremely long non-sectional couch, you may have
to allow extra space for storage since it will be difficult to
arrange these items to fit.
Here's a quick guide to average mini-storage unit sizes and what
you can expect them to hold:
- 5 x 10 foot unit: holds 1-1½ rooms of furniture, or
plenty of boxes
- 5 x 15 foot unit: holds 2+ rooms of furniture, or even
more boxes
- 10 x 10 foot unit: holds 2-3 rooms of furniture
- 10 x 15 foot unit: holds 3-4 rooms of furniture
- 10 x 20 foot unit: holds 4-5 rooms of furniture (standard
garage size)
- 10 x 30 foot unit: holds entire contents of small house or
apartment
In the winter, larger indoor storage units can also be used
to park second cars - invaluable if you only have room for one
car in your garage and don't want to have to dig your spouse or
child's car out every morning.
Broadview Mini-Storage has all of these unit sizes available as
indoor storage, and also offers large and small outdoor storage
spots where RVs, boats, trailers or landscape equipment can be
parked. Broadview Mini-Storage also offers various sizes of
moving trucks for rent, as well as packing supplies and locks
that can be used on their storage units.
