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 Nitro Secure Storage in Nitro is drive-up, so you park at your own door instead of carrying things down a corridor.

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. A boat on its trailer, several vehicles or work equipment want one of the two garages, a 20×40 or a 30×30.
