Storage Unit Types and Features

Storage Unit Types

When it comes to self-storage, finding the right unit to fit your needs is crucial. Whether you’re looking to store a few boxes or an entire household’s worth of items, we’ve got the perfect solution for you. Here’s a breakdown of the different types of self-storage units available:

Climate-Controlled Units

Climate-controlled units are ideal for storing temperature-sensitive items like electronics, artwork, antiques, and important documents. These units maintain a consistent temperature between 55 and 80 degrees Fahrenheit, protecting your belongings from extreme heat, cold, and moisture.

Drive-Up Access Units

Drive-up storage units provide the ultimate convenience for loading and unloading. These units are located on the ground floor, allowing you to drive your vehicle right up to the door. This type of unit is perfect for storing larger items, such as furniture, appliances, and bulky boxes.

Indoor Units

Indoor storage units are located inside a larger building, offering an additional layer of protection from the elements. These units can range in size and are a great option for storing personal items, business inventory, or anything you want to keep in a clean, secure environment.

Wine Storage Units

Wine storage units are designed to accommodate unique storage needs found with protecting wine. These storage units often come with specific temperature controls, additional backup generators, added security, or shelving options.

Vehicle Storage Types

Whether you’re looking to store a car, RV, boat, or motorcycle, we offer a variety of vehicle storage options to keep your investment safe and secure. Here’s a look at the different types of vehicle storage available at our facility:

Outdoor, Uncovered Vehicle Storage

Outdoor vehicle storage is the most accessible and affordable option for storing your vehicle. These open parking spaces are ideal for larger vehicles that can withstand the elements, such as RVs, boats, trailers, and trucks. Our outdoor storage area is secure and well-lit.

Covered Vehicle Storage

Covered vehicle storage offers an added layer of protection by shielding your vehicle from direct sunlight, rain, and snow. These spaces are often carport-style, providing a roofed area to protect your vehicle from the elements while still being easily accessible.

Indoor Vehicle Storage

Indoor vehicle storage provides the highest level of protection, offering enclosed units that safeguard your vehicle from the weather, dust, and potential damage. This option is perfect for classic cars, motorcycles, and any vehicle that requires extra care. Please confirm with our office staff if the space you're renting is indoor vehicle storage.
