Select a Unit for Your Belongings

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

A shared storage unit can make storage more affordable for roommates, but access and payment responsibilities should be discussed in advance. EZ Storage’s Size Guide or the facility team can help you select the best option.
