How do I find the right size storage unit?
Choosing the right size storage unit can save both time and cost.
By choosing the right size storage unit, you only pay for the space you need. The right storage size prevents unnecessary time wasted in a messy or overcrowded warehouse, providing a more efficient and cost-effective storage solution.
Assessing your storage needs is the first and most important step in choosing the right size storage unit. It is essential to go through the items you will be storing and estimate how much space each item will take up so that you can choose the storage solution that best suits your needs.
When evaluating furniture and household items, it's important to consider the dimensions of larger items, such as sofas and beds. Remember, dismantling furniture can significantly save space and improve storage efficiency.
Additionally, it is a good idea to utilize vertical space by stacking goods to maximize the full capacity of the warehouse. This will ensure that you get the most out of your rented warehouse space.
When storing sports and hobby equipment, it is important to assess how much space the equipment takes up. Bicycles, camping gear, and other large items may require more storage space than other hobby equipment.
Make sure you have enough space so that all your equipment can be stored systematically and easily accessible, so that it is always ready to use when needed.
If you are storing business equipment and archives, consider the volume and dimensions of your documents and machinery. Make sure the storage space allows for easy access to documents and can organize equipment logically and efficiently to keep your business running as smoothly as possible.
By assessing your storage needs across different categories, you can make an informed decision about what size self-storage unit best suits your needs.
Small storage size guide
To find the right size storage unit, you can use this size guide to help you:
Small storage units (1–5 m²):
Small storage units are great for storing a few pieces of furniture, boxes of clothes, sports equipment and other small items. They are also ideal for small businesses, seasonal storage or students who need storage space during the summer holidays.
Medium-sized storage units (6–10 m²):
Medium-sized storage units are perfect for storing items in a small apartment or office. They offer enough space for several pieces of furniture, appliances, and a reasonable number of boxes. Ideal for movers or long-term storage.
Large storage units (11–20 m²):
Large storage units can store the contents of an entire detached house or a larger apartment of around 180 m². They are ideal for families who need storage space during renovations or moves, as well as for businesses that need additional space for equipment and filing.
Very large storage units (20+ m²):
Extra-large storage units are best suited for large moving loads (more than 180 m² of household goods), business use, or storing particularly large items.

Maximize your storage space: Effective tips
Proper arrangement and placement – strategic arrangement:
Stack goods efficiently: Make the most of the entire height of your storage space by placing the heaviest boxes and items at the bottom and the lighter ones on top.
Leave the hallway at the end of the room: If you regularly need access to certain items, leave an aisle in the middle or back of the storage area so you can easily move around and find what you need.
Label the boxes clearly: Use labels and our inventory tool to know exactly what each box contains without having to open them all.
Keep frequently needed items in the foreground: Place seasonal equipment, documents, or other frequently used items in an easily accessible location.
Use shelves and storage boxes
Integrating shelves and storage boxes will significantly improve organization and maximize usable space in your storage unit. Choose transparent boxes to easily identify contents, and label each box for quick retrieval.
The inventory tool in the Flexistore app helps you keep your storage organized – you can create a photographic inventory of the items you store and add notes about what each box contains. This way, you can easily find everything you need without having to search!
Finally
Choosing the right size storage unit is key to a smooth storage experience. By assessing your storage needs and utilizing our size guide, you can find a solution that fits both your space needs and your budget.
Remember that efficient organization and proper placement are important to maximize space and ensure easy access to items whenever you need them.
