It can be challenging to determine the right size when it comes to finding the ideal self-storage unit for your sport or hobbies. But don't worry; we've got you covered! Be sure to ask us here at Self Storage Kinsale what size we recommend because we have experience in understanding size requirements for almost everything. Here's a breakdown of the most common unit sizes and what sports and hobbies they're best suited for.

The 20-square-foot = 1.8 square-meter unit

First up, we have the 20-square-foot unit. This size is great for those with smaller hobbies like knitting or sowing lots of wool or bolts of fabric. Great too for wetsuits, flippers etc. It's also perfect for storing seasonal decorations or sporting equipment. If you just need a little extra room to store your belongings, this size is perfect for you.

The 50-square-foot = 4.6 square-meter unit

Next, we have the 50-square-foot unit. This size is ideal for hobbies that require a bit more space, such as woodworking or art. It can also fit larger sporting equipment like bicycles or kayaks. If you have a small to medium-sized collection of items and need a bit more room than the 50-square-foot unit, this size is perfect for you.

The 100-square-foot = 9.3 square-meter unit

Moving up in size, we have the 100-square-foot unit. This is a great option for those with larger hobbies like furniture making or car restoration. It's also perfect for storing larger items like mattresses or couches. If you have a larger collection of items or need space for bigger projects, this size is perfect for you.

The 150-square-foot = 14 square-meter unit

Finally, we have the 150-square-foot unit. This is the largest size available and is perfect for those with multiple hobbies or a large collection of items. It's ideal for storing sailing gear, especially if you sail competitively and have multiple suits of sails, rigging and so on. If you need a lot of extra space, this size is just the thing for you.

Considerations

When choosing the right size unit, it's important to consider the size of your items and how frequently you'll need to access them. If you plan on visiting your unit often, you may want to opt for a slightly larger unit to give yourself some extra room to move around.
