"I absolutely loved everything about the contact free sign up and personal touch of the super friendly staff at Stuuf, where I acquired a clean and large self-storage unit hassle-free. It's conveniently located and incredibly secure. I enjoyed every bit of my move in date which was just ONE DAY after I purchased it. Nothing has ever been easier or painless. I highly recommend this site as well as the team at Stuuf self storage. Thank you to you all!"

"Storing with Stuf was super easy. I live in the area and wanted extra space at home so I moved some belongings into this beautiful facility, both inside and out (I can’t believe I’m saying that about self-storage). There are a few self-storage providers in the area but none of them had very inviting spaces; plus, Stuf was pretty competitive in rate and had amazing customer service from the first interaction. The team even met me on site to lend a helping hand and gave me some swag to take home (a mask which was very appreciated)."

"Love Stuf! I'm really happy with moving my storage unit to Stuf. Very easy reservation process, done virtually and Katrina was SO kind and helpful on the phone. They are just a phone call away if you run into any issues. I only had one, I couldn't open my unit initially, but I just had to jiggle the handle/lock and viola! "

Types of storage units

Having additional storage space in a bustling city like Newark, New Jersey can be a tremendous asset. Renting a storage unit can declutter your living space, keep your belongings secure, and provide peace of mind.

Here are four different types of self storage units and their benefits:

  • Drive-Up Storage Units: These units offer the ultimate convenience. You can easily load and unload items directly from your vehicle. This is especially beneficial in Newark where hauling items long distances can be challenging in busy areas.
  • Interior Storage without Climate Control: This storage option is typically more budget-friendly and perfect for stashing items which are not sensitive to temperature shifts. In the unpredictable weather conditions of Newark, this can be a practical choice for storing everyday items.
  • Interior Storage with Climate Control: Perfect for protecting delicate items from Newark's weather extremes. Whether it's important documents, electronics, or antique furniture, these units maintain a consistent temperature and humidity level to ensure your items are safe.
  • Outdoor Parking Storage: This is an excellent solution for those with extra vehicles, RVs, or boats. With Newark being a densely populated city, finding sufficient parking space can be a challenge. Outdoor parking storage provides a safe and secure spot for your vehicles.

Choosing a storage unit

Choosing the right self storage unit in Newark, New Jersey can seem overwhelming, but by focusing on a few key factors, it becomes an easier task. Consider the following:

  • Ideal Location: Reflecting on the desired proximity of your storage is crucial. Is it important that the space is near your residence or workplace? Also, consider the safety of the neighborhood where the storage property resides. In Newark, there are a variety of residential and commercial properties in different neighborhoods to choose from.
  • Appropriate Size: The physical dimensions of your storage space are key. It's important to factor in enough room for not only your items, but also for you, should you need to move around within the unit. Don't forget to consider height. Will you need to stack your items? If so, ensure the storage space is tall enough to accommodate.
  • Convenient Access: Think about the hours of access required. Will you need to visit the space during traditional working hours, or will you also require evenings and weekends? Furthermore, how easy is it to access the unit? Is it on the ground floor or higher? Understanding these aspects will help in choosing the right storage property.

Remember, while Newark offers a variety of options, it's about finding the perfect fit for your specific needs.

Climate considerations

In Newark, New Jersey, the climate fluctuates throughout the year with average high temperatures reaching up to 85°F in peak summer and dropping to around 26°F in peak winter. The varying weather conditions may impact the decision to opt for climate-controlled or non-climate-controlled storage.

Climate-controlled storage ensures a steady temperature and humidity level which can be beneficial for delicate items. For instance, wooden furniture or electronics may benefit from these units as they maintain a consistent environment regardless of the outdoor temperatures.

On the other hand, non-climate-controlled storage is also a safe solution for many items. These units present a more natural environment similar to storing items in a garage or attic. One can use protective covers and sturdy boxes to safeguard belongings against temperature changes. Items like metal tools, plastic furniture, or seasonal decor can weather Newark's climate in non-climate-controlled storage.

Remember, it's all about understanding the specific needs of your items and choosing the right storage space accordingly.
