Finding Storage Facilities in Atlanta

Self-storage is everywhere in Atlanta, with facilities from East Atlanta to Buckhead, and in surroundings areas like Sandy Springs, Decatur and Smyrna. Atlanta storage units come in a variety of unit sizes, including units large enough to store vehicles such as boats and RVs.

There is plenty of demand for self-storage rentals in Atlanta thanks to the recent influx of movers. This means quite a few new facilities were built in recent years, and many of these storage facilities are multi-story buildings featuring elevator access, climate control and other amenities. Of course, you can still find your standard drive-up access units all around town. In some cases, you can find storage facilities that have both indoor and drive-up units. Whatever your storage needs are, you are sure to find a self-storage facility that is right for you.

Storage Unit Sizes in Atlanta, GA

The smallest unit size you will find in Atlanta is typically a 5x5 unit, about the size of a walk-in closet. This will hold some small furniture, like a dresser and dining chairs, and a few boxes. Storage unit sizes go up from there, usually topping out at a 10x30 unit that's large enough to fit the contents of a 3-5 bedroom house.

Cost of Atlanta Self-Storage

The most popular size unit in Atlanta is the 10x10, which holds the contents of a 1-2 bedroom home or apartment. The average price for a 10x10 self-storage unit in Atlanta is about $139.74 per month, with the overall average price clocking in around $110.19. Keep in mind that factors such as location, age of the facility and unit availability can impact pricing. Amenities such as 24-hour access and climate controlled storage can also affect the price.

Climate Controlled Storage in Atlanta

Climate-controlled storage units are highly recommended due to Atlanta's hot and humid summers. Without climate-control, delicate items like antiques, photo albums or vinyl records can become damaged over time by extreme heat or moisture. Self storage units with climate control regulate the interior temperature and humidity of your unit, keeping your valuable items protected from warping, melting and mildew. Climate-controlled units are usually about 30% more expensive than units without climate control.

Finding Discounts for Self-Storage in Atlanta

To find the best deal on self-storage, it helps to shop around. Narrow down your options to a specific unit size and set of amenities, then compare prices among facilities near you. Look for self-storage facilities that offer special promotions, such as the first month free. Some facilities provide discounts to seniors or veterans; it never hurts to ask!
