How to Choose the Right Size

Start Small, Scale Up

If you're unsure between two sizes, consider starting with the smaller unit. You can always upgrade if needed, but it's harder to downsize.

Make a List

Create an inventory of everything you plan to store. Group items by room or category to get a clear picture of your needs.

Consider Future Needs

Will you be adding more items during your storage period? Plan for growth if you're storing items during a move or renovation.

Stack Smart

Remember that storage units have vertical space. With proper shelving and stacking, you can maximize your storage capacity significantly.
