What to Look for When Choosing a Mini Storage Facility?

Finding a Brilliant Storage Limited facility can be like searching for a needle amongst a haystack. You may be wondering, “How difficult can it be?” Once you start looking at the options, it is like opening Pandora’s Box. You’re suddenly faced with a plethora of choices, including size, location and security features. We’ll break it all down to help you find the perfect place for your most prized possessions.


Size matters. Imagine trying to squeeze an elephant in a doghouse. It’s not going to happen! Think about what you are storing. Are you storing a few old boxes of clothes, or a whole apartment’s worth furniture? Storage units are available in all sizes and shapes, from tiny lockers to large garages. You don’t need to pay more than you can afford. It’s like purchasing a mansion if you only need a cozy cottage.

The location is also important. You don’t need to travel across the state to get something out of storage. Consider Goldilocks’ porridge: not too near, not too far but just the right amount. Consider facilities that are close to your home or office in order to save on gas and time.

You should also put security at the top. These are your treasures that we’re talking to! If you want to sleep better at nights, look for areas with good lighting and sturdy fences. You can even find places that have 24/7 surveillance cameras. Some places have managers on site who watch over things like hawks and their nests.

It may sound like a luxury, such as heated seats in your car. But it is essential if you are storing sensitive items that can be affected by temperature or humidity. Imagine musical instruments and antique furniture which could warp before you even say the word “humidity.” Spending extra money to preserve precious heirlooms is worth it.

People often ignore accessibility until they are standing at the gate in the middle of midnight, cursing their luck because they cannot get inside. Some places are open 24 hours a day, while others may have strict operating hours that could be a problem for you if your preferred time is at night.

Talking about price is a great way to avoid budgeting problems! Compare prices between facilities, but keep in mind that you get what your pay for the majority of the time! If you find a unit that is dirt cheap, it may not be up to standard in terms of security or cleanliness. (Nobody wants cockroaches sharing their space).

Customer service is also important. Friendly staff can make a huge difference when unexpected problems occur (and they will!). Imagine having to deal with angry people every time you have an issue. That’s enough!

Finally, and this is easy to do: read reviews online before you sign anything. The experiences of others can provide valuable insights about potential pitfalls and hidden gems in each facility available near you!
