What fits in a 10x25

250 square feet, roughly an extra-deep garage. A large family relocation, or a pickup parked with workshop tools alongside. At the median online rate that is $0.66 a square foot.

That much is industry guidance; no listing records what was stored.

Is a 10x25 the right size?

No unit rents floor more cheaply, and the stretch just before it is the cheapest on the ladder: stepping out of a 10x20 costs $16 a month for 50 more square feet, $0.32 each. What argues against it is stock. 2,175 branches carry one against 4,343 for a 10x20, and the shortfall is worst exactly where demand concentrates: Los Angeles, CA has one in 13% of its 144 branches, beside 81% in Kansas City, MO.

Where these numbers come from. 6,680 advertised prices read from Public Storage's own published listings across 2,175 locations in 282 markets, last checked 2026-08-31.

Online rate vs regular rate. Every listing publishes two figures and the regular rate is 1.5× the online rate at the median. That is a pricing rule, not a second quote. Figures here are the online rate (the promotional price for booking on the web) unless labelled otherwise. Budget on the regular rate.

Advertised rates for new rentals, not quotes; they move with availability. Insurance, admin fees and limited-time offers are excluded. This covers Public Storage only, which is a limit of what is collected here rather than of what exists. Not affiliated with Public Storage.
