Finding storage in Washington, DC

On Storage.com, it's easy to find self storage in Washington, D.C. You can search for facilities in your zip code; compare pricing, unit sizes, and special features; and even reserve a unit directly on our website.

Unit Sizes and Pricing

In order to have a great storage experience, you should first figure out what size storage unit you need. Storage facilities in Washington, D.C., have a variety of unit sizes, ranging from as small as 3x4 to as large as 46x22. To help you estimate your size needs, Storage.com has an interactive storage guide, which offers illustrations and descriptions of what items can fit into a particular unit size. For instance, smaller boxes and totes or recreational gear may only need a 5x5 unit, whereas the contents of a multi-room house would need a larger 10x30 size.

Pricing will also make a difference when you're searching for a Washington, D.C., storage unit. Storage facilities directly within the city are in high demand, so storage unit prices can be more expensive. Having storage right in the heart of the city is convenient, but it does come at a price. 

For those looking to save some money, renting Washington, D.C., mini storage outside of the city might be a great option, as the farther away a location is from the center of town, the cheaper it may be. However, it's important to consider how often you'll need to access your unit, as a long drive may cancel out any possible rental savings.

To narrow your search with unit sizes and pricing in mind, use Storage.com's advanced search filter sliders to adjust your search based on your storage needs.

Washington, D.C., Storage for College Students

The nation's capital is known for having incredible schools like The George Washington University, Georgetown University, and American University. But many students who attend these schools aren't originally from the D.C. area.
