Difference Between Storage Lockers & Storage Units

Storage Unit In Edmonton

Whether you’re storing just a few valuable items or the entire contents of your house, choosing the right size of storage unit for your needs is essential. Storage units and storage lockers are both options that can be used for short term or long term storage.

What’s the difference between storage lockers and storage units?

Most storage companies would say it comes down to size.  Storage lockers being smaller storage spaces while the size of a storage unit can vary wildly, from just a handful of square feet to the size of a small apartment.

Storage Units

A storage unit is a secure storage space usually anywhere from 25 square feet to the size of a small garage. These types of storage units are ideal for large pieces of furniture or seasonal recreational equipment. Depending on what you’re storing you might want to consider if you want an outdoor or indoor storage unit.

An outdoor storage unit can be very convenient as you can drive your vehicle or moving truck right up to your storage unit for easy access. An outdoor drive-up storage unit is also more cost effective when compared to climate-controlled units of the same size. Climate controlled storage units are kept at a consistent temperature.  These heated storage units are a great option if you plan on storing any electronics or other items sensitive to temperature or humidity changes.

Storage Lockers

Storage lockers tend to be much smaller, usually under 5’ x 5’ or 25 square feet. They always are located within a heated storage area, so you can have the peace of mind that sensitive documents and electronics won’t be subject to changes in temperature or humidity.

If you’re only storing a small collection of valuable items, it is unlikely that you would need a space much bigger than a medium-to-large-sized safe. This makes storage lockers ideal if you’re looking for small storage options at an affordable price.
