What is a Drive-up Storage Unit?

A drive-up storage unit is essentially a ground-level storage space that allows you to drive your vehicle right up to the door of the unit for easy loading and unloading. Think of it as a garage away from home. Unlike indoor storage units located within a larger building, drive-up units are often exterior and offer direct outside access. This design eliminates the need to navigate hallways or use elevators, making it especially convenient for bulky or heavy items. At Ocean Storage, our drive-up units are constructed with high-quality materials, ensuring durability and security. Whether you’re storing household furniture, business equipment, or recreational gear, drive-up units offer unparalleled ease of access and flexibility.
