Do you need extra space to park your car or truck? Whether it’s to free up some room in your garage or need extra parking space, a dedicated vehicle storage space may be just the thing for you.
If you’ve considered storing your vehicle elsewhere, you’re probably wondering what size storage unit do I need for a car? Below, we’ll answer that question and provide more information on how to determine the perfect car storage space for your specific needs.
Car Storage Sizes
To determine the right-sized storage unit for a vehicle, it’s important to first consider the average length of a car. This can help you determine which storage unit size you will need. According to Garage Chief, the standard for your average midsize sedan is 15 to 16 feet. By vehicle class, average lengths break down as follows:
- Mini cars – (Suzuki Alto) 10.5 ft
- Small cars – (Kia Rio) 13.8 ft
- Mid-sized cars – (Audi A4) 14.8 ft
- Full-sized cars – (Audi A6) 15.7 ft
- Small SUV – (Ford Escape) 14.4 ft
- Large SUV – (Cadillac Escalade) 16.7 ft
- Small pickup – (Nissan Navara) 16.3 ft
- Large pickup – (Chevrolet Silverado) 18.4 ft
Judging by the size of the average vehicle type, you’ll likely need a self-storage unit that’s at the very least 20 feet. So, the types of storage units that would fit a car could include the following sizes:
- Large 10’x20’ unit – This is usually the minimum size necessary for a vehicle like a car or boat. It also leaves some extra room to store some of your personal items.
- Large 10’x25’ unit – This size unit could fit a larger vehicle like an SUV or pickup, or a small boat with a trailer. In addition to the vehicle, you’d likely have space to store a small apartment’s worth of stuff.
- Large 10’x30’ unit – Typically, the largest size storage unit available is enough space for a large vehicle or a smaller boat with plenty of room to spare for appliances or small furniture items.
With that said, if you’re only trying to store your vehicle (and not a bunch of other things), a dedicated vehicle storage space is the better option.
