Nancy - 2 March 2026
10 out of 10 the best storage space I’ve had in Manhattan. Joey, the assistant manager here delivers every time. Beyond patient and works with you when you’re in a bind. It’s a great space, this facility is safe and the team is actually great. I’ve had numerous moments where I’ve been anxious about moving stuff and Joey has been there to provide some peace and alleviate any stress. Been living here for a moment and haven’t had a storage manager and team like his treat me the way they do. ... Read more
Jamauri B. - 22 February 2026
I first chose this location because it was near my tenant's building. When needing multiple storage units for a tenant relocation program Joey, was very helpful. He was patient and knowledgeable of his inventory making this an easy process. He had no problem showing me multiple units. We were able to select the perfect units because of his attention to details. Move in was seamless, Joey and the rest of staff were very personable. Space was also very clean. Highly recommend this location. I feel secure sending my tenants there. ... Read more

Everyone was so helpful and knowledgeable. I did not know what I needed. They did, and explained everything in clear terms: what to get, how to access, etc. Joey is the bomb diggity, Izzy the bomb.com. Emmanuel worthy of an angel’s name. Thanks for everything. Great work. 10/10 ... Read more

CK - 29 July 2025
I hardly leave reviews but I wanted to because I was super impressed with how responsive, helpful and quick this process was. I was connected with Ryan who helped get me set up, lock in a great rate and answered all of my questions. This was my first experience using a storage unit and I will 100% be a loyal customer based on the service I’ve received. Totally recommend! ... Read more

Shannon S. - 4 April 2025
The prices are really absurd! After the "promotional period," the rates increase dramatically, and they tack on additional costs. What began as a good bargain became a nightmare. Customer service offered vacuous excuses but declined to assist. Find an honest place and spare yourself the stress. Never again. ... Read more
Lalit M. - 4 April 2025
Izzy went above and beyond to help me find a new unit that fit our budget and all of our stuff. He was super patient and took the time to show me several units to ensure we found the perfect unit! Thanks for making a stressful day so easy!!! ... Read more
Bertie D. - 22 March 2025
After just 3 months, they increased my rent almost 400%. I read the contract before signing, paid on time, and expected increases that reflect market fluctuations (a few percent here and there). Not x4 in 3 months. The property manager Emmanuel offered only to change it to an increase of 300%. He referenced a promotional rate that is nowhere on the website or in the contract. They were unhelpful, unsympathetic, and completely unethical. The facility is quite nice, but be prepared for an absurd rent increase for no reason, and expect no real explanation or customer service. UPDATE: I don't understand why the owner's response mentions late fees. I paid on time, and they did not charge me late fees. They increased my rent 4x without explanation. The owner's response makes no sense, and I believe it was intended to mislead readers. ... Read more
Lou T. - 17 March 2025
My experience here has been excellent - and I have used this location twice to store my belongings. Joe in the office is a huge help and incredibly proactive, it really helps make what could be a stressful situation go smoothly. With excellent storage space and an above-and-beyond helper like Joe, there is not another place I would go for storage. ... Read more

Frequently Asked Questions

Storage units available at Manhattan Mini Storage - 161 Varick Street include the following amenities: Climate-Controlled, Indoor, Retail Available, Onsite Manager, Truck Rentals, Security Camera, Gate, Parking, Credit Cards Accepted, Elevators, First Floor Access, 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.

This particular storage facility provides self storage units of different sizes, ranging from 15 to 247 square feet. Space is not an issue! If you have more belongings to store, or simply bulkier items or even vehicles, you should go for larger storage units.

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.
