Choosing the Right Size for Your Tucson Self Storage Unit- A Few Practical Tips

No one is telling you to cram your boat into 3x4 Tucson storage unit. Likewise, you shouldn’t waste an entire 12x30 for your old desk and a bookshelf. Your needs will be very different if you need Tucson RV storage . Clearly, you will not be using a unit on the second floor to store your RV.

Common sense acquired, you already know that you should select a self-storage unit that will perfectly fit what you intend to put into it. If you need help deciding the right size for your unit, follow these steps to help you decide.

Step #1: Determine What You’re Putting Into the Tucson Storage Facility

Create an inventory of everything you want to store in your Tucson self-storage unit. This is a very important step that will save you a lot of time later. List EVERYTHING. In addition to helping you determine the size you’ll need for your unit, having an inventory of everything in storage is also just a good practice to ensure nothing gets lost or stolen during its time in the unit.

Step #2: Measure everything

You can consider this a “dress rehearsal.” Take measurements of your belongings. Obviously, you can skip this step if you already know the dimensions of your boat or RV. For the majority of folks who use self-storage for extra furniture, office inventory, and otherwise, you will need to take measurements of your items.

Step #3: Play Tetris

Arrange your items, or at least imagine them arranged, in the way you would place them into the storage unit. Stack smaller items on top of larger items. You want to be able to plan for the amount of space you want to buy. Try to imagine them fitting into a 5x8 rectangle, or even a 5x6. Your goal is to purchase the smallest amount of space you need to exactly fit your belongings.

Step #4: Investigate Pricing in a Tucson Storage Facility

The goal is to select the minimum amount of space to fit the maximum amount of items to avoid wasting valuable money and space. After determining how much space your items will take up, compare prices on units. Determine if you need a drive-up or indoor unit, and make your selection based on the nature of your items.
