What Size Self Storage Space Do I Need? Fairborn Self Storage Has Your Answer!

by admin on July 19, 2010

What Size Self Storage Unit Do I Need?  That is the most common question our customers have when calling on the phone.  The best way to get an answer is to call and ask.  Our manager will ask you a series of questions to help you determine what the appropriate size is.  They will offer suggestions on how to best load the unit, what should be stacked and what should be stacked on.  Remember, Our units have 8 foot plus tall ceilings, the highest in the area, that makes our ten by tens bigger than our competition with tin metal buildings.

Also, spending $20 to $30 on boxes, tape and a sharpie will save you a lot of money in the long run.  Utilizing marked boxes will allow you to store more stuff in less space.  So, before you load up the truck or car and head down, stop in first, complete the paperwork and buy some boxes.  Then go home and pack up carefully, label the boxes, keep em less than 30 pounds then load up the unit.  You will be surprised when you may only need a 5 x 10 instead of a 10 x 10.  Don’t worry, we’ll gladly switch you into a smaller unit.

We’re here to help!  Give us a call 937-879-3008.

We’re easy to find, just down from 5 Points Intersection, across from Mapleview Apts at the intersection of Beaver Valley Rd and Old Yellow Springs Rd.  We always have our RED WHITE and BLUE banners flying beside our driveway.  See you soon!

Least Expensive Boxes and Moving Supplies Around-Need Proof?

by admin on July 8, 2010

Reasons people need quality boxes, packing tape and moving supplies:

  1. They’re Moving…duh!  It makes moving easier and cheaper to pack and label boxes.
  2. They’re Storing Stuff in Storage…again, duh!  It’s a proven fact that buying $20 to $30 worth of boxes and tape will save you lots of money on renting storage space.  Simply packing and labeling boxes can allow you to rent less space and store your stuff more efficiently.
  3. They’re Organizing at Home…not so duh…Think about it, got a bunch of stuff piled up in closets  and in the garage?  Buy some good boxes, tape and a Sharpie (all of which we sell).  Organizing your stuff at home can in many cases help you avoid renting self storage space.  Already having your stuff in labeled boxes also makes that next apartment move easier.
  4. They Care About Their Stuff…duh!  Your stuff will thank you for placing it in boxes rather than trash bags, milk crates and other makeshift containers, plus you can break down the boxes and use them again!  Just keep them under the bed.

So, where do you get quality inexpensive boxes and moving supplies?  NOT AT CVS PHARMACY That’s right!? CVS sells a 14′ box, equivalent to our small box for $3.99!!?? Price of the same box at Fairborn Self Storage is $1.69.

So, why pay almost $4 for a box that can be bought at almost any self storage facility for less than $2?  Oh, and if you need self storage space or boxes and you’re near Wright State, Wright Patt or any apartment complex in Fairborn, we’d love to help you out.  Look for the red white and blue banners at the intersection of Beaver Valley and Old Yellow Springs Rd near Five Points Intersection or call 937-879-3008.  THANKS!
