Storage Unit Size Guide: 250 Sq Ft

A 250 sq ft storage unit offers impressive capacity, roughly equivalent to a large one-bedroom flat or a generous double garage. You can comfortably fit the entire contents of a three-bedroom house, including larger furniture pieces, multiple appliances, and 40-50 moving boxes. It's ideal for families during house moves or businesses needing accessible inventory space.

At 250 sq ft, you're stepping up to serious storage capacity. It offers significantly more floor space to our other smaller units. You'll have room for larger furniture items and can create proper walkways to access your belongings. If you're considering large storage space and need just a bit more breathing room, 250 sq ft provides that extra flexibility.

Yes, and plenty of it. A 250 sq ft unit can accommodate full bedroom sets, dining room furniture, multiple sofas, wardrobes, and even larger items like pianos or gym equipment. You'll have enough storage room to stack strategically while still maintaining easy access to frequently needed items. It's particularly popular with families storing complete home contents during renovations or relocations.

Your 250 sq ft unit comes with individual unit alarms controlled via our secure mobile app or PIN code. The entire Swindon facility features 24/7 CCTV monitoring, and well-lit access routes. You'll need to secure your unit with a padlock (available at reception) or opt for our heavy-duty Bluetooth padlocks, perfect when multiple team members need access for business storage.

Prohibited items include flammable materials, hazardous substances, perishables, and anything illegal. This applies to all unit sizes for safety reasons. Check our full list of restricted items or speak with our Swindon team if you're unsure about specific items.
