Storage Options and Unit Features
What size storage unit do I need?
The size you need depends on what you plan to store. Smaller units are ideal for boxes, seasonal items, and small furniture. Larger units can accommodate the contents of an apartment, home, or business inventory. If you are unsure, our team can help you select the right size to avoid paying for unused space.
What is the advantage of drive-up storage?
Drive-up units allow you to park directly in front of your storage space for fast loading and unloading. This is especially convenient for heavy furniture, tools, equipment, or frequent visits.
Do I need a climate-controlled storage unit in Pittsburg or Antioch?
In most cases, climate control is not necessary in Pittsburg or Antioch due to the area’s mild Northern California climate. Most household and business items store well in a standard unit. If you are unsure, our onsite team can help you choose the best option for your needs.
