Storage Unit Sizes in Danville, VA — An Honest Guide

The most expensive storage mistake is renting the wrong size — too small and you’re cramming or renting a second unit, too big and you’re paying for air. Here’s the honest breakdown we give people over the phone, with real Danville prices.

5×10 — one room’s worth (from $47/month)

A bedroom of furniture, a dorm, a motorcycle, or a small apartment’s living room. Our smallest and the right answer for most “I just need to store some stuff” situations.

10×10 — a small apartment

A one-bedroom apartment with appliances, or two-plus rooms of a house. The size most families under-guess and then wish they’d rented.

10×15 — a two-bedroom home

A two-bedroom house, or a one-bedroom with a lot of furniture and boxes, with room to stack.

10×20 — a full house

A two-to-three-bedroom home including appliances and larger furniture. If you’re storing a whole household during a move or renovation, this is the honest size.

Three rules that save money

  • Stack vertically and leave a center aisle — capacity is about height, not just floor.
  • Disassemble bed frames and tables to store flat against the wall.
  • Put temperature-sensitive items in a climate-controlled unit and rugged goods in a drive-up unit.

Still not sure?

Describe what you’re storing and we’ll tell you straight — we’d rather size you right the first time than sell you the biggest unit. Call (434) 836-5009 or start online at statestoragedanville.com.
