Pre-Renting Checklist for Storage at Self Storageland

Renting a storage unit can be an excellent solution for decluttering your home, storing business inventory, or keeping belongings safe during a move. At Self Storageland, we want to ensure you have all the information you need before renting a storage facility. Here’s a checklist of essential things to consider:

1. Determine Your Storage Needs Consider what items you need to store and for how long. This will help you choose the right size unit and rental duration. Make a list of your belongings and estimate the space required.

2. Choose the Right Storage Unit At Self Storageland, we offer various storage unit sizes to meet your needs. Whether you need a small locker or a large unit for furniture and appliances, we have options to suit you. Our staff can assist in selecting the appropriate size.

3. Understand Security Features Our facilities are equipped with advanced security features, including 24/7 CCTV surveillance, controlled access, and robust lighting. Make sure you’re comfortable with our security measures and ask about additional features like climate control or alarm systems.

4. Check Accessibility and Hours Consider how often you’ll need to access your storage unit and during what hours. Self Storageland provides convenient access hours to suit your schedule, but it’s important to know these times in advance to plan your visits.

5. Review Rental Agreements and Fees Before renting, review our rental agreements to understand the terms, fees, and any additional charges. This includes rental rates, deposit requirements, late payment penalties, and insurance options. We believe in transparency, so don’t hesitate to ask questions if anything is unclear.

6. Consider Insurance While our facilities are secure, it’s always a good idea to have insurance for your stored items. Check if your homeowner’s or renter’s insurance covers storage units, or consider purchasing insurance through Self Storageland for added protection.

7. Understand Packing and Storage Tips Proper packing is key to keeping your items safe in storage. We offer packing supplies like boxes, bubble wrap, tape, and plastic bags. Get tips on how to pack efficiently, label boxes, and use storage space effectively. Our staff can provide guidance on packing and organizing your storage unit.

8. Plan Transportation Consider how you will transport your items to the storage facility. Self Storageland offers moving-in transport services for a fee, making it easier to get your belongings to your storage unit. Plan ahead to ensure a smooth moving day.

9. Know the Facility’s Rules and Regulations Familiarize yourself with Self Storageland’s rules and regulations, including prohibited items, safety guidelines, and waste disposal. This helps ensure a safe and compliant storage experience.

10. Schedule a Visit If possible, visit our facilities in Northcliff or Crest to see the units in person. This gives you a better sense of the space and allows you to ask questions on-site.
