Car Storage Sizes & Options
What car storage options does Public Storage have?
Public Storage offers a range of vehicle storage options. Our 20-foot vehicle storage units provide more than enough space for most standard cars, trucks, motorcycles and ATVs.
Public Storage car storage options include:
Separate, enclosed first-floor vehicle storage units
Uncovered, open-air parking spaces in fenced lots
Covered spaces with canopies to block the sun
It’s important to remember that fluctuating market conditions and the unique characteristics of your local Public Storage facility can impact what car storage options are available. We recommend either checking storage unit availability online or calling your local Public Storage facility and speaking with your on-site property manager for exact details.
How big of a storage unit do I need for a car?
Usually, our 20-foot vehicle storage units are suitable for standard-size cars, trucks, motorcycles and other vehicles. For large vehicles, RVs and sizable trailers, some facilities also may offer vehicle storage units up to 50 feet long.
While car models over the years change in size, usually compact cars and four-door sedans range from 12 feet in depth to around 15 feet. Larger sedans, SUVs, small trucks and crossovers can range from 15 feet to over 19 feet. And large trucks with large bed sizes can sometimes measure over 22 feet.
Before reserving a vehicle storage unit, always measure your car first. Don’t forget to include any added dimensions resulting from side mirrors or vehicle accessories.
Do you offer short-term, winter car storage?
Yes! All our vehicle rental agreements are month-to-month. As a renter, you get to decide how long you want to stay, and you can move out at any time.
If you need somewhere to keep your vehicle during the winter months, our 20-foot vehicle storage units are a great short-term solution. Depending on the winter weather in your city, you may want to consider a fully enclosed, indoor car storage unit or a covered car storage space.
What amenities do you provide for collector or luxury car storage?
When you need a long-term vehicle storage solution for the classic car you drive with pride, consider our first-floor, enclosed spaces. Depending on your location, these 20-foot vehicle storage units can shield your vehicle from sun, wind, rain and snow. Alternatively, many of our locations also offer covered parking spaces underneath a canopy.
Public Storage vehicle storage areas feature computer-controlled gates. If your vehicle needs to be accessed by loved ones, friends or employees, you can add them as authorized gate users. Our facilities are completely fenced and well-lit, prioritizing convenience and accessibility.
