What people say about renting garages on Neighbor

undefined x undefined undefined in Spanish Fork, Utah

Verified Review

"As a college student, I needed somewhere to store all of my possessions each summer break. Valeria’s place was so great that I kept coming back every year. Once I was even offered a big bag of peaches from her garden (so this is totally a paid review). She’s super quick to respond and has always been flexible when I needed it. *disclaimer: she never mentioned reviews to me- don’t take this down."

Types of Storage

Renting a residential garage in Yuma provides a secure and convenient storage solution for your belongings that won't break the bank. For those looking for extra outdoor storage, there are also options for renting a spot in a driveway, parking lot, or unpaved lot, which can be a great cost-effective solution. Indoor storage units can provide extra security and climate-control, making them ideal for items like electronics, furniture, and other sensitive items. Each type of storage comes with its own unique set of benefits, so choosing the right one for your needs is essential.

Choosing a Storage Unit

When renting a residential storage space, there are several key considerations to keep in mind.

  • Location: Make sure the garage is in a safe, convenient location. If you're located in Yuma, AZ, the garage should be close to where you live and easy to access.
  • Size and Accessibility: Consider the size of the space and its accessibility. Make sure the garage is large enough to store your belongings with room to move around, and check that the space offers easy access.
  • Security: Ensure that the garage has secure locks or other security measures. Also check to make sure there are no gaps that could allow people to enter without permission.
  • Maintenance: Make sure the garage is well-maintained and in good condition. Look out for cracks or damage that could increase the risk of theft or damage to your belongings.

Climate Considerations

When looking to rent a private garage in Yuma, Arizona, there are some important factors to consider. During the summer months, temperatures in Yuma reach an average high of over 100 degrees Fahrenheit. This extreme heat can be damaging to unprotected possessions, and private garages that are not climate-controlled should not be used to store sensitive items such as electronics. In the winter, temperatures can drop to an average low of 42 degrees Fahrenheit, making it necessary to insure that any items that could be damaged by extreme temperatures are protected with appropriate insulation.

The value of storing vehicles in a private garage in Yuma is significant. In addition to protecting the vehicle from extreme temperatures, a garage also offers protection from dust and other elements. High winds during the summer months can also cause significant damage to vehicles if left unprotected. Ultimately, renting a private garage offers a degree of protection from the impact of the hot, dry climate. While most private garages are not climate-controlled, there may be commercial garages or some residential garages that do offer climate control. In those cases, climate-sensitive items could be stored safely.

Ourcomprehensive list of available Neighbor garages spaces in Yuma is a great place to start.

As a rule of thumb, a 5x5 will fit one piece of furniture or several boxes, a 5x10 will fit the contents of a 1-bedroom apartment, a 10x10 will fit the contents of a small home, a 10x15 will fit the contents of a 2-3 bedroom home, a 10x20 will fit the contents of a 4 bedroom home, and a 20x20 will fit a lot more.

Motorcycles and other small vehicles generally require a 5x10 storage space while most cars and trucks will fit within a 10x20. For larger trailers, RVs, and other vehicles you will likely need to pull out the measuring tape as they can require anywhere from 10x40 to 20x60 spaces.

We recommend climate controlled storage for most electronics, collectibles, personal items (books, clothing, and photos), and sensitive materials (glass, leather, and metal).

If you live in a dry climate, climate control isn't as much of a concern, though you should still consider temperature's effect on your items.

If you expect freezing temperatures during the period that you plan to store your vehicle, you should definitely consider winterizing your vehicle before storing to prevent unecessary harm to your vehicle.
