Frequently Asked Questions
It depends on what you're storing. As a rough guide:
- 5'×5' — closet-sized. Seasonal decor, small furniture, a few boxes.
- 5'×10' — fits the contents of a studio or small 1-bedroom.
- 10'×10' — a 2-bedroom apartment's worth of furniture and boxes.
- 10'×15' — a 3-bedroom home, including appliances and larger furniture.
- 10'×20' and up — a full house, or vehicle storage.
