Finding a self storage facility that best suits your needs

When inquiring about self storage space there are several things that you must take into consideration. Some things one may consider are issues like where is the facility located? Does the facility offer climate controlled spaces for your temperature sensitive items? What are the gate access hours? Do I need 24 hour access? How secure is the facility? Is the facility paved? Is the facility clean? What are the prices of the spaces? These are just a few questions you should take into consideration while looking for a self storage facility.

Ultimately you want the facility you choose to rent space from to cater to your needs. The last thing you want is to store at a facility that does not work for you. Say you need some self storage space but work the night shift somewhere and you get out of work at 4 in the morning. Since you know you will be sleeping during the day and normal business hours, 24 hour access is a crucial feature in a facility so it works with your schedule. It does not make sense to store at a facility with restricted hours of gate access and take a chance of not being able to access your items when you may need them.

Here at Storage Station we offer climate controlled units and non climate controlled units in various sizes. The difference is non climate is exposed to the elements, for example if you were to just store your items is a shed with a concrete floor or a garage that is detached from a home. A climate controlled unit offers your items to be stored away from the elements with no extreme temperature changes.

One other major concern that many people do not account for is choosing the proper unit size for their belongings. When choosing a unit size it is important to pick a unit that is not too large or too small for the items you want to store. One way of ensuring that you do not under or over estimate the space needed is to call a facility directly and let them know the bulk of the items you will be storing. Managers and associates of self storage facilities are the best people to ask when it comes to picking the proper unit size especially here at Storage Station where we have the customer’s best interests in mind. Another way to make sure you are picking the right size is to stop by a local facility and ask to see a few different sized units. Getting a visual of the space you will be storing in is one of the best ways to help you decide what unit size will work best for you.

When push comes to shove choosing the right facility and the right sized unit for your needs can be a challenging task, but with the help of the managers and associates at the facility you are looking to store at we can help to make your choice much less stressful. So when you’re shopping around for a self storage facility and space that best suits your needs, be sure to ask the manager or associate their opinion on which space they think would work best for you and your items. Or better yet, just call Storage Station and we will lead you down the best path possible for your storage needs.
