Renting Boston, MA Self-Storage

With so many people on the move, downsizing, or simply decluttering, self storage is in high demand. Fortunately, Boston self storage facilities are widely available throughout the city and surrounding neighborhoods. But with so many options, narrowing down to the right storage space for you can be difficult.

Most storage units are located in facilities dedicated to self storage and have features like drive-up access that makes storing large furniture and appliances easy. You can back a moving truck right up to your storage unit to easily unload heavy items. If you just need to store boxes or small furniture, there are also storage facilities located in multi-level buildings that have elevators to move items into units.

If you're storing small furniture and boxes, a 5x5 storage unit is probably sufficient, but a 10x10 unit is generally the most popular. This is about the size of a one-car garage and can fit larger furniture, large appliances like refrigerators, and many boxes.
