Choose Space for a Dorm or Apartment

Think about the largest items first, then count boxes, luggage, and smaller belongings. The following unit-size guide can help narrow the options:

  • 5x5: Boxes, luggage, clothing, books, and small furniture; often enough for one student's essentials
  • 5x10: The contents of a typical dorm room, including a mattress, desk, shelving, and several boxes
  • 10x10: Furniture and belongings from a one-bedroom apartment
  • 10x15: Shared apartment furniture or a larger move between leases

Students sharing a storage unit can split the rental cost, provided they agree on who can access the unit and how payments will be handled. Review EZ Storage’s Size Guide or speak with the facility team before renting.
