Unless you're actually using every cubic foot of your storage unit (which would be a remarkable feat), that $0.09 figure is a bit off. Amazon only charges you for space you actually use, whereas a storage unit charges you for the empty space too.
- GauntletWizard 13y agoEven if you're only filling the floor 1` high, that's still an order of magnitude difference between the cost of a traditional unit and Amazon space. Not that Amazon doesn't offer some other advantages, but worth noting.
- nbouscal 13y agoHow's that? If you're filling the floor 1' high that's 1x10x10 or 100 cubic ft at $90, for double Amazon's price. Parity is 2' high. When I had a storage unit I think I was using about 30% of its capacity, which is cheaper than Amazon but also less convenient. Seems like a reasonable tradeoff.
- GauntletWizard 13y agoApologies; That's only for long-term storage, where the $.90/month per cubic foot is significantly less than the $4.24 ($22.5/half-year, ~$.49 per month) that Amazon charges past the first year.
