Full Service Storage vs. Self Service Storage

Are you thinking about storing something? Whether it’s a few boxes or an entire room’s worth of furniture and miscellaneous stuff – there are plenty of options available for you. The biggest problem is deciding which solution fits your specific needs.

Let’s look at two storage options: self-service and full-service, to see which is most accessible.

Self Service Storage

Though self-service storage is probably the most used approach, it isn’t necessarily the de facto winner. Self-service touts “ease of use” and “affordable storage options” as its biggest draws, but is it that easy? After all, self-service has limitations:

  • You’re responsible for getting your items to and from the space.
  • Access is limited to the selected hours.
  • Frequent management changes can impact pricing.
  • Lack of available units due to popularity may mean paying for more than you need.
  • Air-conditioned or ventilated storage spaces are rarely effectively air-conditioned.

Granted, self-storage tends to be a more affordable option, but it’s up to you to decide if the risk is worth the price of your items.

Full Service Storage

With any full-service storage option, you’re going to end up paying a bit more for a premium experience. However, with that experience, you get additional benefits. Callbox Storage specifically transports your items for you, which means you have less to do. And whenever you want something, you can arrange to have it delivered at a time that works for you. No back and forth. No renting trucks or asking friends to help you move items. Isn’t it worth hiring experts that can help save you the time and the hassle?

As for climate-control and available units – Callbox Storage offers climate-controlled warehouses locally that provide your essential items the protection they deserve so that when you need them, you don’t have to worry about what quality they’ll be when you see them again.
