Self storage is a flexible and practical solution when you need extra space for your belongings. Whether you're moving, downsizing, deploying, remodeling, dealing with life changes like marriage, divorce, retirement, or extended travel, self-storage can help.
At Elite Self Storage, we offer convenient storage options with no long-term contracts or security deposits, making it easier to rent exactly what you need.
People use self storage for many reasons, including:
Moving or relocating
Downsizing or remodeling a home

Marriage, divorce, or retirement
Storing excess business inventory
Managing belongings after a death in the family
Self storage provides a secure space to keep your household goods, business items, or special belongings safe and accessible.
In this guide we will explain how self storage works and everything you need to know about storage.
At Elite Self Storage, we offer a variety of units to suit your needs and budget. Our units include:
Climate-Controlled Units: Ideal for temperature-sensitive items such as electronics, antiques, documents, seasonal goods, or clothing. These climate-controlled storage units help protect against humidity and extreme weather changes.
Outdoor Unheated Drive-Up Units: These are more affordable and super convenient for loading and unloading household items right from your vehicle.
Multiple Sizes Available: Whether you’re storing a few boxes or everything from a three-bedroom house, we’ve got space that fits.
Outdoor and Indoor Vehicle Storage: Our storage spaces allow you to access your vehicle frequently with our outdoor vehicle storage, or you can park your vehicle in our indoor vehicle storage, which offers limited access.
Not everything can be stored in storage facilities. Some things are strictly prohibited, such as:
Perishable food
Flammable or combustible material
Illegal items or substances
Understanding what’s not allowed helps you avoid any issues or delays. When in doubt, check with our staff—We’re happy to guide you.
Think about what features will make your life easier; our storage units offer:
Drive-up access for easy loading
Climate-control for sensitive items
Indoor access or extended hours for convenience
Security features like gated access and surveillance
Choosing the right amenities helps keep your items safe and in excellent condition.

Renting a unit is quick and easy! You can:

Visit us during office hours to get set-up in person
Once your rental agreement is signed and your first month’s rent is paid, you’ll receive an access code to enter the facility. You can also:
Buy a lock from our office or bring your own
Pick up packing supplies (boxes, tape, bubble wrap, etc.)
Use our complimentary moving carts and dollies.
The day you move in becomes your anniversary date. Rent is due on that same day each month. We offer month-to-month billing. You can also sign up for automatic billing to avoid late fees.
If rent is not paid on your monthly payment date, late fees will be added and your access code will be disabled.
Elite Self Storage offers multiple payment options, including:
Automatic billing by credit card or bank account
E-transfers
Online account payments
Yes, insurance is required for all storage units. We offer affordable plans through a third-party provider; however, you are also welcome to use your own insurance. Please provide us with proof of coverage upon moving in.
Access Hours: 6:00 AM- 10:00 PM, everyday
· Moving Out: Just give 30 days’ notice
· On move-out day, remove all contents and your lock, clean the unit, and notify our staff so we can close your account.
If your plans change and you need to stay longer, no problem, just let us know!
We provide multiple reminders before taking further action:
You’ll receive reminders by phone and email.
If the account remains unpaid, we’ll send a registered letter.
If payment still isn’t made, a public auction may be scheduled.
You can prevent the auction at any time before it starts by paying the full balance.
You are required to give one month's notice before you move out of the storage unit. If you change your mind, just let staff know and they will give you an extension. On your move out day, leave the unit swept out and empty, with no belongings. Inform staff when this is done and they will close the unit.
