Self-service moving and the things to learn
When and how often will you want access to your belongings? Some self storage facilities give you almost unlimited access to your storage unit. Others are open only during certain hours. You may need to call a day or two in advance if you have a moving storage container instead of a room, since the company will need to fetch the container and place it where you can access it. Work out realistically how often you are likely to want to access your belongings, and take it into account when you choose a self storage facility. Will you pay any charges other than the monthly rate? Some self storage facilities will charge you for accessing your unit.
