Storage unit size guide

Picking a unit is mostly about how much floor space you need and whether you want to drive up to the door. Every unit at Valley Secure Storage in Teays Valley is drive-up, so you park at your own door instead of carrying things down a corridor.

Every size we rent

Month to month with no long-term contract. The lot is fenced and gated, with cameras, and open 24 hours a day.

How to choose

Think in garages. A 10×20 is about a single-car garage, a 10×10 about half of one. If you can picture your things stacked in a garage, you can picture the unit.

Measure the largest item, not the pile. A mattress, a sofa or a ladder sets the minimum footprint. Everything else stacks around it.

Leave a walkway. If you will visit often, size up so you can reach the back without unloading the front.

Vehicles need length. A car fits a 10×20 unit. A trailer, a boat or an RV can go in one of the open-air parking spots instead.
