Benefits of Student Self-Storage

College is an exciting adventure as students learn, grow, and begin their adult lives. Part of the college experience often includes living in dorms, moving to off-campus housing, and using summers to study abroad, travel, or pursue internships.
 
Throughout all these changes, it can be difficult to know what to do with your things. A student storage unit could be the solution.
 
Here are just a few of the big benefits of using a college storage unit:

Convenience

You can’t keep your possessions in your dorm room over the summer, so what are you going to do with them? Renting a storage unit near your campus gives you a secure location to store your possessions over the summer, during travel, and in between moves.

Money Savings

Shipping your possessions back home between school breaks (especially large pieces of furniture) can be expensive. You'll most likely save money by just storing them over the break.

Security

If you have valuable possessions, you may not feel comfortable keeping them in a dorm room, shared student housing, or your fraternity or sorority house. Price Self Storage offers small storage units and lockers for those items you can't afford to lose.

Common Student Storage Uses

Why do so many college students opt for self-storage during their college years? Here are some of the most popular reasons to invest in storage for students:
Price Self Storage - Student Storage Image 14

Decluttering Small Spaces

Whether you live in a dorm, a house shared with friends, or your own small apartment off campus, the college experience often involves tight living quarters. Student storage units help you declutter by allowing you to store the things you need but don’t use every day, like extra furniture, sports equipment, and seasonal clothes.

Store Things Between Breaks

Most students must pack up their dorms at the end of the school year, and many off-campus students don’t continue renting over the summer. Rather than spend a lot of money shipping possessions back home or throwing out perfectly good furniture, many students opt for summer storage.
 
Price Self Storage makes this easy with month-to-month rental agreements that let you store your possessions for just a few months at a time. These month-to-month leases are also a great option if you take a semester to study abroad.

Store Items Between Moves

It’s not uncommon for college students to move several times during their college experience. Maybe you were living in an off-campus apartment but want to move in with friends, or perhaps you’ve transferred to a new school. Whatever the case, you may need to store your things between moves. That’s exactly when our month-to-month rental agreements can come in handy.

Store Items After Graduation

You’ve graduated, and the world is your oyster — but what are you going to do with your things? Don’t get rid of them! Instead, put them into storage until you’ve established yourself in your next exciting phase of life.

Student Storage FAQ


Can I store my stuff for the summer?
Yes, our student summer storage serves as a popular solution for those looking to store their items when away from school for the summer. Ask about our Free concierge service to help you move in.
How much does student storage cost?
Rates for student storage can be found online or by calling the facility to speak with a friendly storage expert. Prices vary by unit size and location.
How big of a unit will I need to hold a dorm room?
Our small or medium sized storage units make for a popular choice among students looking to store their belongings.
Is it cheaper to ship or store college items?
The answer depends on a number of factors, including the size and weight of items you want to ship, the distance you need to ship your items, the size of the storage unit you rent, and the length of time you plan to store your items.

Generally, the larger and heavier your items and the longer the shipping distance, the more likely self-storage would be cheaper than shipping. Take a look at online shipping calculators to get a ballpark range of how much shipping would cost, and then compare it with renting a storage unit. Don’t forget to double the shipping cost if you’ll want to ship your items back for the next year of college.
Why do college students need summer storage?
In most cases, students can’t stay in dorm rooms over the summer (unless they enroll in summer classes). Other students may not wish to continue renting off-campus housing if they won’t be in the area over the summer. For many students, renting a college storage unit is cheaper or more convenient than bringing or shipping items back home over the summer break.
