Call us at 682-800-3949 for current pricing information and availability.

Okay, let’s talk about big storage units.

Storage spaces will vary in size from company to company.

Before we get down to specifics, we should mention that there are no standard sizes with storage units.  One location in Fort Collins might have 10’x30’ as their largest unit, while a storage facility in Little Rock might feature 20’x40’ units as their largest.  All we can do, for an article like this, is to answer in generalities.  You will need to call around to find the unit size you desire.

At Mouser, our largest storage unit for household storage is 10’x30’.  However, we also have RV storage units which are 13’x50’, and mini hobby shops which are 24’x40’.

Again, these sizes vary from place to place. Speaking of variations, let’s talk about the vast differences in price from company to company and city to city.

What you can expect to pay.

For household goods, you can expect to pay in the $150-$200 per month range, but that will increase if you opt for amenities like climate control self storage.  For RV self storage, you are looking at a similar $150-$200 range, and for hobby shops the prices will cost you somewhere in the $750-$1000 per month range.

We realize we are giving you rather nebulous information; however, prices vary greatly in the self storage industry, and prices increase over time, rendering an article like this one irrelevant with regards to pricing.

What can you store in large storage units?

The largest self storage units for household goods will easily hold the furnishings of a three-bedroom home, with room to spare.  The largest RV self storage, or boat storage units, can accommodate a 45-foot boat with room to spare for any repairs you want to make or maintenance you want to perform. And the hobby shops give you room to move around and attack that hobby of yours with passion.

What else is there to know? Small businesses often will use storage units for storage, especially for “boxed” inventory, and this is where a storage unit more resembles a warehouse.  Remember, storage units are typically eight feet tall, meaning a 10’x30’ storage unit, which is 300-square feet in floor space, is actually 2400-cubic feet of storage space for items which are stored in strong boxes.

Is it any wonder why self storage continues to grow as an industry in the United States. With so many options offered to the public, self storage truly is the answer to many prayers.
