Renting a self-storage unit is a great way to find extra space for your belongings during moves or home renovations. Storage units are also a great solution for people downsizing into a smaller home or living in an apartment with limited storage space.
When comparing units, think about what you’re storing and what facility features are important to you.Feature | Benefit |

Prices for self-storage units in Tallahassee vary dramatically. The location of the facility, the location of your unit within the facility, the unit size and additional amenities like climate control or 24/7 on-site security impact the monthly rates.
Unit size | Average price |
---|---|
5’ x 5’ | $40 |
5’ x 10’ | $60 |
10’ x 10’ | $90 |
10’ x 15’ | $120 |
10’ x 20’ | $140 |
Most facilities allow renters to pay on a month-to-month contract with periodic increases in rental rates, though companies may offer a discounted rate for customers who sign long-term agreements. Some facilities also charge a small, one-time administrative fee to set up your account.
Some self-storage companies offer a discounted or free first month, which helps reduce costs. Facilities also often offer discounts to military service members, students, seniors and members of organizations such as AAA. You may be able to find additional promotions by renting a storage unit during the fall and winter off-season in Tallahassee.
Florida laws state that storage facilities cannot charge more than $20 or 20 percent in late fees, whichever is greater. The Florida Self-storage Association has more information on recent updates to the Florida Self-Storage Lien Law.
When working out a budget, factor in the price of storage insurance. Some facilities require you to have at least basic insurance before you can rent a unit. Your homeowners or renters insurance may at least partially cover your stored items, but most policies do not cover damage caused by rodents or flooding.
Keep in mind that exclusions in your home or renters policy, such as coverage for valuable jewelry and artwork, also apply to stored belongings. To ensure you have sufficient protection, you can purchase a storage insurance policy or upgrade your homeowners or renters insurance. The price depends on the level of coverage needed, but it’s usually cheaper to upgrade a policy than take out a new one.
