Our Services

Chestnut Storage offers a variety of storage unit sizes to accommodate your specific needs. From small spaces for a few pieces of furniture to large units capable of storing the contents of a four-bedroom house, we have the perfect solution for you. All our storage units are equipped with a roll-up steel door, drive-up capability, and an eight-foot ceiling, allowing you to stack items efficiently.

We also offer climate-controlled units for those items that require a more stable environment. Our inventory of storage units is constantly changing, so please call or click on "RENT ONLINE" to check on availability.

Our storage facility is designed with your convenience in mind. The floors are concrete, and the driveways are paved with adequate drainage to prevent water flowing back into a unit.

Moving Tips

At Chestnut Storage, we want to make your moving process as smooth as possible. Here are some helpful tips to keep in mind when packing up your self-storage unit:

1. Try to use boxes that are a uniform size, as they are easier to stack. Remember to keep the heavy ones on the bottom and the light ones on top.

2. Leave small walkways between the boxes and furniture in your storage unit so you can easily get to the items you want without having to move anything around.

3. If you're storing a lot of packing boxes in your unit, try to fill them to the top, even if it's just with padding and old, crumpled newspapers. Boxes that are only half-filled tend to collapse if anything's placed on them.

4. If you're putting any metal objects into storage - like lawnmowers or file cabinets - it's best to treat them with rust protector first, or at least wipe them down with an oily rag.

5. Pack your storage unit so that your most valuable items are at the back, and purchase a high-quality padlock to put on the door.

6. Leaving a space between your stuff and the unit's wall allows for air to circulate within the unit. Laying plastic sheeting on the floor and stacking boxes on top of wooden pallets can prevent condensation damage.

7. So can using old linens or other fabrics, instead of plastic, to protect your stuff from dust.

8. If you're storing a refrigerator in your unit, leave the door ajar. This will prevent mold from growing inside.

9. Under no circumstances should you keep anything flammable or combustible in your storage building. This means no gasoline, oil, cleaning fluids, or paint thinner. If you're storing any machinery that runs on gas, drain the tank before you store it.
