Which Storage Option Is Right for You?
The two main categories are self-storage units and movable storage containers. In deciding between the two, the main factor is access versus mobility. With a traditional self-storage unit, you can easily access your belongings at any time. These types of storage units will typically cost less, but there’s more work involved because the boxes will need to go from your current apartment to the truck, then to the storage unit, then back to the truck before finally making their way into your new apartment. By using a moveable container storage unit, you are combining storage and shipment. Although this gives you greater mobility, you will not have access to your stuff while it’s in storage, and the storage rates typically cost more than a traditional storage unit.Choosing Your Storage Unit
There are some additional factors to consider when choosing your storage unit. No matter how long you are storing your belongings for, the security of the storage unit is crucial because you want to be sure that your belongings will not get stolen or vandalized. Additionally, a climate-controlled storage location is important because even small amounts of dampness can ruin your things with mold and mildew. Recommended sizing for your storage unit is as follows:-
- 8’ x 12’: 2 to 3 rooms
- 10’ x 10’: 3 rooms
- 8’ x 16’: 3 to 4 rooms
- 10’ x 15’: 4 rooms
- 10’ x 20’: 5 rooms
- 10’ x 25’: 6 rooms
