Luis and Abe were friendly and helpful (despite me walking in without an appointment and frankly no clue what I was doing). I appreciated their team work, and was grateful they managed to find time for me while also juggling the needs of their existing customers. Thanks guys for your help! ... Read more

I had a great experience at this facility. I usually find storage facilities intimidating but due to my experience with Luis, who had been extremely helpful, I will definitely be returning to this facility. The move-out process was easy and efficient due to his support every step of the way—from helping with the heavy load that I could not carry myself, to making sure I know exactly where my locker is. I’d give more than 5 stars if I could. Thank you so much! ... Read more

I recently rented a storage unit at Manhattan Mini Storage and I couldn’t be more satisfied with the experience.

The facility itself is clean, secure, and well-maintained. I really appreciated how easy the whole process was — and a big part of that was thanks to Luis. He went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable and confident in my decision. It’s rare these days to encounter customer service this good.

Luis helped me with the storage unit which is pretty spacious -- 4' deep x 8' wide x 6' tall. $86 per month all together for first 3 months (then a small undisclosed as yet price increase, to hold for next 8-12 months, he said). Luis was kind and personable both on the phone and helping me with the unit. This is my second time getting storage here; it worked great before (hence returning), and would recommend to anyone else. ... Read more

Jose was super helpful with the process of me closing out my storage unit. He made the everything super simple and I was able to get in and out quickly.

Frequently Asked Questions

Storage units available at Chelsea Mini Storage - 224 12th Avenue include the following amenities: Indoor, Retail Available, Onsite Manager, Truck Rentals, Security Camera, 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.
