Choose The Right Unit

Blog

If you are looking for the right storage unit to put your things in, you want to make absolutely sure that you end up with the one that is going to be the best fit for you and your belongings. Here are some of the things that you are going to want to think about when it comes to shopping for the right unit.

Choose the right size

When you are looking for a unit, make sure you get one that is going to work with regards to its size. You should look for one that is going to be a little bigger than you need just to fit your items in. When you have extra space in the unit, you can pack your things in there in a way that allows you to have aisles between the stacks of boxes. The aisles allow you to walk all the way through the unit so you can get an item out of the back of the storage unit without needing to remove everything that is in front of the box that it may be packed in.

Choose a unit with 24-hour access

The good news is that most of the storage unit companies know the importance of offering 24-hour access. This way, you can get to your things anytime you need to. However, some places will have units in an area that may not be accessible at all times of the day and night. Therefore, you want to make sure that the unit you are renting for your stuff is going to be accessible to you anytime you want.

Choose a unit that is easy to move into and out of

Look at the items that you have to move and decide on the unit that's right for you carefully. If you have all small boxes to store, then you may be able to take a unit that may be harder to move into but that is going to be cheaper. If you have a lot of tall, heavy, long, or awkward items that you are going to need to put in your unit, then make sure you get one that has no turns to get to it and that is easy to move right into from the truck.

Go with heated units

You should go with heated self-storage units for your things, so you know that everything is still going to be in good shape when you remove it. Leaving the things you own in a very cold unit can cause them to break, snap and become weather damaged in many ways.
