As an out-of-state college student, I'm no stranger to storage units in the local area. I stored with Smart Stop for the first time this summer, and it was by far the BEST experience I've had in several years. The units were very clean with no signs of dirt or even cobwebs, and the check-in/out process was a breeze. Special shoutout to Robin for being so helpful and nice! ... Read more

Very friendly staff, only issue is not enough carts and the unplowed parking lot. Not okay to be ice packed over a week. And definitely a safety issue. Otherwise the lockers are safe and secure, climate controlled and definitely a good value!! Anne was just a doll to work with. She went out of her way to take care of all my needs and even helped me make a change at the last minute. Definitely recommend. ... Read more

This particular storage facility provides self storage units of different sizes, ranging from 25 to 200 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.
