I have found that, by and large, a 10 x 10 is one of the most popular, if not popular, storage unit size in this business.
Our office receives inquiry after inquiry with a 10 x 10’s availability & pricing. The first thing that we do is try to get an idea as to what is being stored. We listen carefully and then we automatically direct them to an 8 x 10, a 7 x 10 or even a 6 x 10 in size. We then proceed to explain that our units are a minimum of 9 feet from floor-to-ceiling and they could stack their personal or business items quite high. Some of them even sound surprised that we give them several different sizes and options, and direct them to a smaller unit than they originally anticipated. And, if for some reason any of these sizes are too small to accommodate them, then we revert back to a 10 x 10. But, more often than not, we have found that something smaller than a 10 x 10 is what is needed; and they have a lowered price, too!
In the self-storage business, we believe it is important to give the customer options because we practice integrity by telling the truth, we want to keep our customers happy and because customer service is our business anyway.
