When your documents pile up and you need somewhere to store them, using a local walk-in records storage location can be a great alternative for quickly finding a secure and convenient storage space near you.
In the following video, learn more about what is a walk-in storage service, how much it costs, and where and how to find storage services nearby. Below you will find a step-by-step guide to finding your closest location, preparation tips prior to storage, and how the process works.
Where to Find Nearby Storage Services
When you have a large amount of records that take up too much room or you don’t use often, using a walk-in storage service to drop off the files you need to store is a easy solution.
Retail storage locations provide both an easy and inexpensive way to store paperwork at secure off-site facilities, and with locations scattered across the country and in most major cities, nearby records storage is always easy to find.
What Is Walk-In Storage?
Just like it sounds, with walk-in storage services you can simply stop by and drop off your document boxes to be safely stored at an off-site records storage facility.
When you come in, the process is as simple as counting up the number of boxes then pricing out the project based on the location’s storage cost per box, per month.
From there, your boxes are collected and taken to a secure storage facility.
How Much Does Walk-In Storage Cost?
Walk-in storage works as a price per box per month service. On average, document storage costs between 50–95 cents per box per month.
Despite that though, it’s important to keep in mind that prices can vary from place to place.
