Quotes For Self Storage

When you are in the market for self storage units, you will need to gather quotes from several different companies. Many people automatically think all storage companies use the same fees and are approximately the same rates. However, rates and fees can differ dramatically and getting a self storage quote from a company you’re considering using can tell you a lot of things.
 
The first thing a self storage quote tells you obviously is the rate for your space. It will outline if your rate varies by month, year, or even day. You may find that your rate is cheaper when you choose to sign a lease for a longer period of time. So, if you anticipate having to use self storage long-term you may want to try to negotiate a lower price.

Another thing a self storage quote should tell you is the hours of the location. This can be very important. You will want to know when you can access your belongings. Some self storage business locations allow access everyday and are never closed. Other locations are gated or otherwise secured and will only allow access during business hours. So, be sure to note that from your quote.

A self storage quote should also note any rules or regulations the company has on what you can store. Some companies are quite lenient and will let you store anything non-hazardous. However other companies are very strict and have long lists of items you are not permitted to store in their facilities.
