Making Space in Utah: A Guide to Choosing the Right Storage Unit

Storage Corner | September 11, 2025 @ 12:00 AM

Utah living often means juggling busy family life, outdoor hobbies, and shifting between homes or apartments as communities grow. With so much movement, finding the right storage unit size can be the difference between a stressful move and a smooth transition.


At Storage Corner, with facilities across Utah, Idaho, and California, we provide storage options designed for every stage of life, whether you’re relocating, decluttering, or just need a spot for seasonal gear. Here’s how Utah residents can choose the right fit.


Step One: Think About What You’re Storing

Before choosing a size, take inventory. Utah customers often need space for:

  • Household transitions: furniture, appliances, and moving boxes.
  • Outdoor lifestyle gear: skis, bikes, snowboards, hiking and camping equipment.
  • Business storage: documents, supplies, or extra inventory.
  • Vehicles and larger items: boats, RVs, or trailers at select properties.


Unit Sizes That Work for Utah Families

  • Small Units (5’x5’ or 5’x10’): Store seasonal gear, extra boxes, or dorm furniture for college students.
  • Medium Units (10’x10’ or 10’x15’): A great fit for families during moves or remodels, enough room for multiple rooms of furniture.
  • Large Units (10’x20’+): Perfect for full household storage or combining family belongings with larger outdoor equipment.


Features That Make Storage Easier

Many Storage Corner locations in Utah include amenities that help simplify moving and storing:

  • Drive-up access for quick loading and unloading.
  • Temperature-controlled units to protect sensitive belongings year-round.
  • 24/7 video surveillance, gated access, and keypad entry codes for security.
  • Tenant Protection Plans with different coverage options for added peace of mind.


Flexible Ways to Rent and Pay

We know life in Utah moves fast, so Storage Corner offers multiple ways to rent and manage your unit:

  • Online rentals and touchless move-ins
  • Account management and bill pay online (ACH or card)
  • Call center support available early until late daily
  • On-site office staff (where available) for in-person help or walk-ins

At Storage Corner, we don’t just provide empty units. We focus on sustainability and community:

  • Solar-powered facilities
  • Eco-friendly landscaping and pest control
  • Well-maintained properties with pride in cleanliness and service



Pro Tip for Utah Customers

If you’re active outdoors, consider a slightly larger unit than you think you’ll need. This leaves room for both family storage and seasonal gear, so you’re ready when ski season or summer adventures arrive.
