Size Estimator

Here's a quick and easy way to estimate what size self storage room you need. The examples below show how large the most popular room sizes are. We've also shown approximately the volume of goods each room should take.
 
Remember that you can make use of the full height of a storage room (remembering to leave a walk way through!). You will need to use sturdy boxes to stack delicate or irregular shaped objects.
 
You should also create a list of the items you put into storage - this will be important for estimating the level of insurance you need. You may also find it useful just to have a list of the things you have put in storage to hand!
