5x10 storage units in San Angelo
Fifty square feet, five feet deep and ten feet across. It is the size people rent when a garage has stopped closing, a spare room is about to become a nursery, or a lease ends three weeks before the next one starts.
What fits in a 5x10 storage unit
- A mattress set and a bed frame, stood on edge
- A dresser, a nightstand and a couple of chairs
- Fifteen to twenty medium boxes, stacked
- Two bicycles, or a mower and a wheelbarrow
- Seasonal decorations, camping gear and yard tools
The useful way to picture a 5x10 is a large walk in closet with a roll up door on the end. You can reach the back wall from the doorway, which matters more than the square footage does. Nothing gets buried, and you are not climbing over your own furniture to find one box.
It is the smallest unit we rent, and it does exactly what it is meant to do. If you are storing a sofa, a full dining set, or a washer and dryer alongside the boxes, start at a 10x10 instead. The difference in the monthly rate is smaller than the cost of moving twice.
One step up from here is the 10x10, which doubles the floor and takes a whole one bedroom apartment.
Questions about the 5x10
Will a 5x10 storage unit hold a one bedroom apartment?
A 5x10 takes a bedroom's worth of furniture, meaning a bed, a dresser and boxes. A full apartment adds a sofa, a dining set and kitchen appliances, and those need the floor space of a 10x10. If you are between the two, the 10x10 is the safer rent.
Can I drive up to a 5x10 unit?
Yes. Every unit at B&K is drive up, including the 5x10s. You pull your vehicle right to the door, unload straight into the space, and lock it behind you.
