- Straight monthly pricing for storage unit rentals—spelled out before you book
- Drive-up access at our secure Saint John yard for faster loading and unloading
- Right-sized units matched to studio through 3-bedroom moves (8×10, 8×20, 8×40)
- Simple guidance on when climate-controlled storage makes sense—and when standard units are the efficient choice

Two ways to store (choose what saves time)
Drive up, unload, lock, and go. Great for moves, renovations, and cleanups when you want a neutral place for your belongings.
We deliver and assemble a compact container at your address. Daily access without crossing town. If plans change, we’ll help you switch between on-site and yard storage.
Quick decision tip: If you’ll access items daily, on-site storage often saves time. If you prefer off-property and predictable hours, the yard unit is the better fit.

- Transparent monthly rates by size
- Any one-time setup fees or deposits (if applicable)
- Clear notes on what’s included (access details, lock guidance, and support)
- A quick size comparison if a smaller/larger unit could reduce your cost
If you’re between sizes, we’ll walk through your list, stack plan, and access needs to choose the right unit—not the biggest one.

Do you need climate-controlled storage?

Standard drive-up units usually fit:

- Most household items that handle typical NB conditions
