If you are looking to build Emeryville storage units in California and do not know what types of units to offer, this article should get you started on the right path. The decisions you make about what Emeryville storage units to offer will impact the future of your company so you need to do a little research before you make any final decisions. The variety of units that you can offer is great and there are articles that cover the basics of drive up spaces and indoor spaces.
You need to decide what sizes your Emeryville storage units will be. There are so many sizes of storage units out there in the market today that it can be a little overwhelming for property owners and customers. Some feel that it would be best to offer as many different sizes as you possibly can, but this may just lead to confusion and overkill. It may be best just to stick to the basics when you are building your storage units. Having the largest amount of choices in California may not be a good thing.
The basic sizes are covered in great length in other storage articles, but here is a brief synopsis of the different Emeryville storage units and the sizes. You may want to start with locker size units. They are just like a normal five by five, but they have four or five foot ceilings. The customers that will want these will be looking to store a few boxes or a couple of suitcases. The area that you are in may not warrant having spaces of this size so you will have to decide if you want to invest in storage units that are this small.
The smallest space at most storage facilities is a five by five, but it would have the traditional eight foot ceilings. It could hold about twenty five standard file size boxes, but not really that much furniture. The next size is the five by ten followed by the ten by ten. The ten by ten and ten by fifteen will accommodate callers storing one and two bedroom apartments respectively. The ten by twenty is the first size that is recommended for houses. It can hold most two bedroom homes and is also good for standard vehicle storage. The ten by twenty five and ten by thirty Emeryville storage units are good for larger two bedroom homes and most three bedroom homes. You can offer larger sizes if you like, but most sites stop at ten by thirty. They accommodate callers looking for more space by simply offering a deal on storage units located right next to each other.
The climate controlled storage space is becoming more popular in the market today. Customers have experience or know someone that has experience temperature related damage while storing. A more appropriate name for these units would probably be temperature controlled units. You are heating them when it gets cold and cooling them off in the summer. Obviously, these units will cost a little bit more, but it is a good way for the customer to have peace of mind. Make sure to follow up with great temperature regulation so you meet customer expectations. They will expect the temperature to stay around room temperature so make sure that is what you are doing.
