Car storage units in Charlotte, NC

Q: What size storage unit is best for a car?

A 10’&#215;20’ unit is the go-to size for most standard cars. Compact cars? You might only need a 10’&#215;15’. Trucks, vans, or larger SUVs? A 10’&#215;30’ will give you the extra space you need.

Q: Can two cars fit in a 10&#215;30 storage unit?

Yes – in most cases! A 10’&#215;30’ unit is about the size of a standard two-car garage, so you can usually fit two compact vehicles side by side.

Highly recommend. I called several storage units and Donna answered the phone and was so helpful. When I went there, Mack, found me wondering around parking lot and came with golf cart to bring me to main office. They both explained and showed me my options. Donna also meticulously explained to me how to use the lock, open and shut storage unit, use elevator and gates. So professional, knowledgeable and patient. They are awesome and place is clean!

I've rented units here since 2004. Older building but solid, clean, no insects or mice. Terrific manager, Darlene, is very helpful and accommodating with unit rentals and UHaul rentals. My stuff is safe here!

I have been using this storage space for a lot longer than I anticipated however this location has always been honest with me in regards to fees,lock changes and always stressed the importance of keeping a lock on my unit even when I don't replace my lock you can best believe a lock will be placed on the unit for you of course you will be billed for it but this only ensures me my goods are protected.Each staff member I have encountered has been pleasant and respectful however Amanda stood out to me because she understands no one wants to have their goods in a storage for extended periods of time and no matter how many times I may have been late ,she doesn't call me demanding payment like a bill collector but instead a service professional who cares and just keep me updated to avoid removal of goods.I would recommend Public Storage but especially this location as it has been a pleasure leaving n trusting my goods there.

I absolutely have the best experience with Megan. She’s very informative very helpful and very pleasant things like that you don’t get too often, especially in today’s time. Also me having an autistic sign and her also understanding his needs and being very patient with him truly opened my heart that people are still kind. Keep going, Megan. You are truly loved and appreciate it at your place of business.
