Why Use Self Storage?

At some point in our lives, it’s likely we will run across the need for a storage facility–be it for business storage needs or personal storage needs. Knowing what to store and what to look for in a self storage facility before you need it can be helpful. Here are list of things to consider:

1. Reduce clutter: Renting a self storage unit can be a great way to reduce clutter and free up needed space at the home or office. A storage unit is a smart place to keep a few boxes, old appliances, memorabilia, heirlooms and old toys.
2. Security: Self storage facilities provide security features not normally found on homes. American Storage has an electronic gate system which can only be opened by a security code that is assigned to each individual tenant. The code allows us to monitor who is entering and exiting the facility. We also have “on-site” manager, which means that an employee, usually the Store Manager, has an apartment on-site as part of the facility. American Storage takes great pride in protecting your belongings and strives to provide state-of-the-art security. We feature electronic gate with coded access, monitored video surveillance, fenced and well-lit facilities. We also work with the Colorado Springs Police Department for periodic monitoring of the property. Finally, we have on-site personnel who patrol the facility after business hours. Self storage units give you the benefits of both extra storage space and added security.
3. Space for large items: Homes often do not have the storage space to hold large items. American Storage offers parking for RVs, boats, cars and motorcycles and collectible autos.
4. Insurance: Self storage insurance may be cheaper than homeowner’s or renter’s insurance. Insurance will replace your valuables if they are stolen or damaged while in storage.

We offer a wide range of sizes to accommodate your needs. Sizes range from 5×5, or 25 square feet, to 10×30, or 300 square feet.
