Storage units

Shurgard offers storage unit sizes from 1 metre up to 30 metres.

All our storage units are approximately 3 metres high, except for the lockers which are approximately 1 metre high.

Shurgard offer a wide variety of storage units.

• Lockers: about 1 metre high and range in surface area from 0.5 to 1.5 m², ideal for storing small items for a few storage boxes.
• All our other storage units: about 3 metres high and range in surface areas from 1 m² up to 30 m².

You can also choose among the below access options.

• Direct access: If you want to drive a vehicle directly to the door of your unit – making loading and unloading easy – choose direct access storage. You pay for the convenience as these units are more expensive.
• Ground floor access: If you don’t want the bother of putting your things in a lift – perhaps they’re heavy or cumbersome – choose ground floor access storage.  
• Upstairs access via lift: If you don’t mind using the lift, choose upstairs storage accessed via lift. These are slightly cheaper units and ideal if you don’t need to store heavy or large items.  
• Value unit: If you’re looking for a cheaper unit and don’t mind it being an irregular shape, perhaps with a sloping roof, choose a value unit.

Indoor units are protected from the outside elements and are located along broad hallways (and lifts in multi-storey facilities).

Outdoor units are located on the ground floor and offer you the convenience of being able to drive up to the unit door.

The temperature in your storage unit at Shurgard depends on the Shurgard location. Ask the on-site manager at your location if you have any specific questions or requirements.
