Car storage units in Fairfax, VA, and nearby areas

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.

I have rented with Extra Space Storage in both Burke and Falls Church, and on both occasions, I had the pleasure of working with Tra. Tra consistently goes above and beyond when it comes to customer service. Extra Space Storage, give Tra a raise! If I had a position available for her at my own business, I would definitely try to steal her! ?? Thank you, Extra Space Storage, for having such great facilities and, most importantly, amazing employees like Tra. I wouldn’t choose to rent with anyone else!

Easiest process ever! Thank you to Valencia who went above and beyond showing us different units in person and comparing prices and best fits. She took the time to answer all my questions and walk thru everything with us. Will definitely recommend this location to anyone! She was up front about all fees so there were no surprises like other places of extra charges that were not discussed.
