Had a really good experience within my two month time in the unit. The staff were really helpful for first timers and they sent out multiple emails reminding of the due date to pay for the unit.

I did not have trouble finding their pricing, easily displayed on their website & also it's on display at their front desk as well. The prices seem high to me, but I don't think it's Big Apple's problem I think it's more a Manhattan problem. The manager was extremely helpful & thorough with policies, and showed me the different spaces available and told me how much each cost. He helped me figure out which one worked best. There is a 5-day notice where you need to let them know 5 days prior to your last day or they will charge you another month, but that's better than my last place which required a 14-day notice, so I'm okay with that. They also don't prorate your last month, which I also think is pretty standard. Overall, I really like the space, seemed well taken care of & the manager was great. I will update if there are any issues. ... Read more

Frequently Asked Questions

Storage units available at Big Apple Mini Storage - 157 West 124th Street include the following amenities: Climate-Controlled, Indoor, 24 hour access, Retail Available, Onsite Manager, Security Camera, Gate, Credit Cards Accepted, Multi-Level Storage and Online Payment. Depending on what you need to put away in storage, you can discover there are some things you absolutely need, so make sure you check with the facility manager that you'll find everything you need on site.

You already know how much stuff you need to put in self storage, so figuring out the unit size you need is the next step. Smaller units such as 5'x5' or 5'x10' spaces can usually be filled with the amount of items you would normally store in a closet: a few chairs and lamps, sports equipment, garden tools and some boxes.

Moving on to larger sizes, imagine the 10'x10' and 10'x15' units as similar to a bedroom or a living room – larger pieces of furniture, sturdier equipment and bicycles can fit here. Finally, a 10'x20' unit has enough space for the contents of a 3-bedroom house, while the larger 10'x30' space easily accommodates the contents of a loaded semi-truck.

Accessibility and quickness are key when it comes to storage, so drive-up storage units are generally regarded as very convenient. Pull your car right up to your storage space, load, unload, and you're good to go! However, if you're mostly storing temperature-sensitive items, you should rather consider indoor storage units.

Climate-controlled units maintain consistent temperatures and humidity levels all year round, making them perfect for all your sensitive items. Moisture and varying temperatures can damage a whole host of things, and that is why a lot of people choose to use climate-controlled units to store items like wooden furniture, electronics, artwork, documents and photographs, collectibles, antiques, etc. If the belongings you're storing are important to you, you should consider renting a climate-controlled unit.
