Home / 10×20 Storage Units
Need more than a typical storage locker but not an entire warehouse? A 10×20 storage unit gives you 200 square feet of floor space and about 1,600 cubic feet of storage volume with an 8-foot ceiling, making it a practical choice for vehicles, furniture, business inventory, and bulky seasonal equipment.
With ground-level, drive-up access, you can park directly at the unit, making loading, unloading, and regular access much easier.
You can use a 10×20 unit for:
Automobiles, motorcycles and small boats
Sofas, beds, dressers and other furniture
Refrigerators, washers, dryers and major appliances
Business inventory and product stock
Lawnmowers, snow blowers and outdoor equipment
Seasonal decorations and recreational gear
Boxes, totes and household belongings during a move
Renovation materials and equipment
One of the biggest benefits of this 10×20 storage option is drive-up access. Instead of parking elsewhere and carrying heavy items through hallways, you can pull your vehicle directly to the unit entrance.
A ground-level unit also eliminates stairs and unnecessary trips with heavy items. For movers, contractors, business owners and anyone storing oversized belongings, that convenience can save considerable time and physical effort.
Epic Storage’s current rental page specifically describes the 10×20 as a ground-level, drive-up unit for convenient loading and unloading.
A 10×20 storage unit offers the extra space needed for larger household belongings, business equipment, seasonal items, and major transitions. It’s a practical choice when you need more room than a standard unit without moving into an oversized storage space.
A 10×20 unit is a practical option when you need enclosed space for a vehicle or recreational equipment.
It can be useful for:
For a small retailer, online seller, contractor or service business, storage space can become expensive when inventory starts taking over the workspace.
A 10×20 unit can serve as a convenient inventory overflow area for:
Western New York weather means many households need somewhere to store items they only use during part of the year.
A 10×20 can hold equipment such as:
Moving, remodeling or downsizing can quickly fill a garage. A 10×20 unit gives you room to keep larger pieces together rather than scattering them between rooms or locations.
For better protection, clean and completely dry items before storage, use breathable covers, and keep furniture elevated from the floor when appropriate. Epic Storage’s own furniture guidance recommends breathable protection and careful placement to reduce moisture and damage risks.
| Storage Size | Approx. Floor Area | Good For | Best Use Case |
|---|---|---|---|
| 10×10 | 100 sq. ft. | Furniture, boxes, apartment contents | Smaller household storage |
| 10×15 | 150 sq. ft. | Larger furniture, inventory, multiple rooms | Medium storage needs |
| 10×20 | 200 sq. ft. | Vehicle, large household contents, business stock | Whole-home moves, vehicle and bulky-item storage |
| 10×25 | 250 sq. ft. | More inventory and oversized belongings | Extra room for large storage projects |
These are practical guidelines, not guarantees. Packing method, item dimensions and how much walking space you leave inside the unit all affect capacity. Epic Storage’s sizing guide also identifies 10×20 as a common fit for a full three-bedroom home or a vehicle.
Choose 10×20 when you expect to store a vehicle, several large pieces of furniture, larger quantities of business inventory, or belongings from a bigger home.
A little extra room can also make a major difference when you need to access your belongings repeatedly. It is usually easier to use a slightly larger unit than to pack everything tightly and then have to unload half the space just to reach one item.
We have 24/7 gated entry, perimeter fencing, exterior lighting and motion-triggered lighting as part of the access and facility setup.
We have climate-controlled 10×20×8 drive-up option separately from the standard 10×20. That distinction matters when you are storing temperature- or humidity-sensitive belongings such as certain furniture, electronics, documents or keepsakes.
Ground-level, drive-up access with the full 200 sq. ft. footprint — a practical fit for vehicles, furniture and general household or business storage.
The same drive-up dimensions with added protection for items sensitive to temperature and humidity, such as certain furniture, electronics, documents or keepsakes.
For frequently accessed storage, place items you use most often near the front and create a narrow walkway through the unit.
Imagine you are storing the contents of a three-bedroom home.
Place the largest furniture pieces toward the back and sides, stack labeled boxes safely where appropriate, and keep seasonal equipment together near one wall. Items you may need next month should not be buried behind furniture you will not touch for a year.
For a move, you can also create separate sections for bedroom items, living-room furniture, appliances and “open first” boxes.
A 10×20 unit can become much more than a place to leave things.
Use it as:
Epic Storage’s moving guidance recommends measuring large furniture early, booking storage in advance for moves, labeling boxes clearly and using storage to stage belongings during the moving process.
The best choice depends on what you are storing, how often you will access it, and whether you need climate control.
For current pricing and availability, use Epic Storage’s rental page because rates, promotions and inventory can change. The current page displays a 50% off the first two months promotion for the listed 10×20 standard unit, subject to the rental terms.
A 10×20 can typically hold a vehicle, large furniture sets, major appliances, business inventory, seasonal equipment or the contents of a larger home, depending on how items are packed.
In many cases, yes. Epic Storage describes 10×20 as a size that can fit the contents of a full three-bedroom home, although the actual capacity depends on how much furniture and how many boxes you have.
A 10×20 is commonly used for vehicle storage, and Epic Storage specifically lists automobiles, motorcycles and small boats among suitable uses for its 10×20 offering. Always verify vehicle-storage requirements in your rental agreement before moving in.
A 10×20 provides 50 additional square feet of floor space. It is usually the better choice when you need to store a vehicle, larger household contents, more business inventory or bulky equipment.
Epic Storage lists both a standard 10×20 drive-up unit and a separate climate-controlled 10×20×8 drive-up option. Choose based on the type of belongings you plan to store.
Epic Storage states that current tenants have 24/7 gated access using their tenant access code.
Start with the largest items, leave a usable aisle, label boxes on multiple sides, and keep frequently needed belongings near the entrance. Using vertical space safely can also increase usable capacity.
