What Size Storage Unit Do I Need for a Car?

title image

A popular question we’re asked is what size storage unit do I need for a car? It’s so popular that we’ve created this blog post that focuses on the storage container sizes best suited for car storage or vehicle storage.

Why Car Storage?

Car storage is a quick, easy, and affordable way to reclaim your garage, gain space in your driveway, and protect your vehicle from seasonal elements and damaging winter salt. Vehicles that sit motionless in the elements for extended periods of time are subject to degradation. Also, depending on where you live, vehicle storage may be necessary if overnight street parking is prohibited. Learn more about car storage, including lots of tips, tricks and expert advice!

What is a Good Storage Size for a Car?

If you are looking for the ideal storage unit for car storage or vehicle storage, these are the 2 sizes of units to consider:

  • 8x20 Storage Unit – MOST POPULAR UNIT SIZE for Car Storage!
  • 8x40 Storage Unit

Our 8’x20’ unit is comparable to a single car garage or contents of a 2 to 3 bedroom home.

Our 8’x40’ self-storage unit is comparable to a 2 car garage or contents of a 3 to 4 bedroom home.

Very reliable storage. A good solution to park your car and keeping it protected from all weather conditions. Although a bit remote location.. but the price and the service was worth it.

I went in to find out some information on storage units for when I move in a couple weeks and was happily surprised by the customer service I received. I had looked at a few other storage facilities in Woodstock but their customer service was terrible compared to Jared's from Storage Solutions. He was professional and understanding of my needs and was ready to help anywhere he could. I will definitely be spreading the word to any of my friends looking for units!

Great rates for a clean, secure, well lit place. Really good staff and a company that cares. New facility and the competitors are pretty tired looking and charging the same rates (if not a bit more).

My husband and I recently relocated from the US and needed a place to store all of our belongings while we secured a new home. The folks at Storage Solutions advised us on the right size unit for our needs, at the right price. They were kind and helpful with all of our "first-timer" questions. We were very confident in the security of the place, and had absolutely no issues. I would highly recommend and use them again if needed.
