If you've never rented a storage unit before, the process may seem confusing. Fortunately, self-storage is designed to be simple, flexible, and convenient. Whether you're moving, renovating, decluttering, storing business inventory, or looking for vehicle storage, self-storage provides a secure place to keep your belongings for as long as you need.
At Elite Self Storage, we offer a variety of storage solutions for homeowners, renters, students, and businesses. With storage units in Edmonton and storage units in St. Albert, finding the right storage space has never been easier.
Self-storage facilities rent space to individuals and businesses on both short-term and long-term agreements. Most rentals operate on a month-to-month basis, giving customers the flexibility to store their belongings without being locked into a long contract.
Rent begins on the day you move into your unit. This date becomes your anniversary date, and rent is due on the same day each month.
At Elite Self Storage St. Albert, formerly Riel Park RV & Self Storage, we provide security cameras, electronic gate access, daily security patrols, excellent lighting, and a fully fenced property. Our Edmonton locations also offer video surveillance and coded gate access to help keep your belongings secure.
With storage facilities throughout Edmonton and St. Albert, customers can choose the location and unit type that best fits their needs.
Before renting a storage unit, it's important to determine what type of storage space you need.
Some customers prefer drive-up storage units because they allow vehicles to pull directly up to the unit for easy loading and unloading. Others choose climate-controlled or heated storage units to help protect temperature-sensitive items.
Popular storage options include:
If you're unsure which unit size is best, our storage experts can help you choose the right solution based on the items you plan to store.
Most household and business items can be safely stored in a storage unit. Furniture, boxes, seasonal decorations, sporting equipment, business inventory, and personal belongings are all common items stored in self-storage.
However, certain items are prohibited, including:
Food products
Perishable items
Illegal substances
Hazardous materials
Flammable liquids
Explosives
Understanding storage guidelines helps maintain a safe environment for all customers.
Getting started is simple.
You can visit one of our locations during office hours, reserve a unit online, or contact our team for assistance. Most rentals can be completed in just a few minutes.
Before moving in, customers must:
Sign a rental agreement
Pay the first month's rent
Provide identification
Obtain insurance coverage
Insurance is required for all storage units. If your homeowner's or renter's insurance policy provides coverage, simply provide proof of insurance. We also offer affordable storage insurance options through a third-party provider.
Once your paperwork is complete, you'll receive an access code and can begin moving your belongings into your unit.
To make moving easier, Elite Self Storage offers boxes, locks, packing supplies, bubble wrap, and moving accessories at our facilities.
One of the biggest advantages of self-storage is convenience.
Customers can access their storage units seven days a week during our extended access hours from 6:00 AM to 10:00 PM.
We also offer multiple payment options, including automatic payment plans that help prevent missed payments and late fees.
If an account becomes overdue, access may be temporarily restricted until the balance is paid. Our team works hard to contact customers before taking any further action.
Like most self-storage facilities, overdue accounts may eventually be subject to lien and auction procedures as outlined in the rental agreement.
Before that occurs, customers receive multiple notifications by phone, email, text message, and registered mail. Outstanding balances can be paid at any time before an auction takes place.
Our goal is always to work with customers to avoid these situations whenever possible.
When you're ready to move out, simply provide the required notice period and remove all belongings from your unit.
Before leaving, remember to:
Remove your lock
Sweep out the unit
Remove all personal items
Notify the office
Once your unit has been inspected, your account will be closed.

Most self-storage units are rented on a month-to-month basis. This gives customers the flexibility to store their belongings for a few weeks, several months, or even longer without committing to a long-term contract.
The right storage unit depends on what you plan to store. Smaller units are ideal for boxes, seasonal items, and personal belongings, while larger units can accommodate the contents of an apartment, home, or business. Our team can help you choose the right storage solution for your needs.
Drive-up storage units are one of the most convenient storage options available. They allow you to park directly in front of your unit, making loading and unloading furniture, equipment, and heavy boxes much easier.
Many customers use self-storage for vehicle storage. Depending on the vehicle's size, options may include indoor vehicle storage, outdoor parking spaces, or larger storage units for cars, motorcycles, trailers, and recreational vehicles.
Climate-controlled storage helps protect items from extreme temperature fluctuations. It is often recommended for electronics, important documents, wooden furniture, antiques, collectibles, and other sensitive belongings.
Yes. Insurance is required at Elite Self Storage. Many homeowner's and renter's insurance policies provide some off-site coverage, but customers should always verify their coverage with their insurance provider. Affordable storage insurance options are also available.
