Why Do People Rent Self Storage in New Richmond, WI?

The New Richmond area is a growing community, and residents use self storage for all kinds of reasons. The most common situations we see at WI 64 Self Storage include:

  • Moving or relocating — Need a bridge between your old place and new home? A storage unit gives you the flexibility to move at your own pace.
  • Downsizing — Transitioning to a smaller home or apartment and not ready to let go of everything? Storage lets you keep what matters without the clutter.
  • Seasonal storage — Snowblowers, lawnmowers, holiday decorations, bikes, boats — storage keeps your garage free for the season.
  • Home renovation — Protect your furniture and belongings while you remodel a room or your whole house.
  • Business storage — Local businesses use our units for inventory, equipment, documents, and supplies that don't need to be on-site every day.
  • Estate cleanouts — When a family member passes or downsizes, having a storage unit nearby gives you time to sort through belongings without rushing.
  • Student storage — College students heading home for the summer can store their belongings locally instead of hauling everything back.

Choosing the Right Storage Unit Size in New Richmond

One of the most common mistakes first-time storage renters make is choosing a unit that's too small. At WI 64, we offer four unit sizes designed to cover every situation — from a quick seasonal cleanout to storing an entire household.

8×8 Self Storage Unit (64 sq ft)

Our smallest unit is perfect for individuals who need to store boxes, small furniture pieces, seasonal decorations, sports gear, or business files. Think of it as the size of a large walk-in closet. Great for decluttering without a major commitment.

10×14 Self Storage Unit (140 sq ft)

This unit can comfortably hold the contents of a studio or one-bedroom apartment — furniture, a washer and dryer, bikes, boxes, and more. It's also an excellent choice for a full garage cleanout or an estate cleanout where you need to keep items organized while you sort through them.

10×20 Self Storage Unit (200 sq ft) — Most Popular

Our most popular size, the 10×20 is roughly the size of a one-car garage. It can hold the entire contents of a 2–3 bedroom home — living room furniture, dining set, bedroom sets, kitchen appliances, washer/dryer, and dozens of boxes. This is the unit most people in New Richmond choose when they're in between homes or moving.

10×26 Self Storage Unit (260 sq ft)

Our largest unit is designed for those who need maximum space. A 10×26 can hold a 3–4 bedroom home's worth of belongings, a vehicle (car, truck, boat, motorcycle, or trailer), contractor equipment, or a large business inventory. If you're not sure what size you need, this one gives you peace of mind.

Still unsure? Contact our team and we'll help you pick the right unit for your situation — no pressure, no hard sell.

What to Look for in a Storage Facility Near New Richmond, WI

Not all storage facilities are the same. Here's what you should always check before you sign a rental agreement:

  • Security — Gated access with individual codes means only registered tenants can enter the property. Always confirm this before committing.
  • Clean units — A clean, well-maintained unit protects your belongings from pests, moisture, and damage. Inspect the unit before you sign.
  • Month-to-month leases — Never sign a long-term contract if you can avoid it. Month-to-month flexibility means you can leave when you're ready without penalties.
  • Online access — The ability to rent, sign, and pay entirely online saves you time and means you can get started the same day.
  • Transparent pricing — Hidden fees are a red flag. Make sure you understand exactly what you're paying before you move anything in.
  • Convenient access hours — You want a facility you can access early in the morning or in the evening without hassle. WI 64 offers daily access from 6 AM to 10 PM.
  • Responsive management — When you have a question or issue, you want someone who picks up the phone. Call us at (651) 327-0146 and see for yourself.

Storage Packing Tips to Maximize Your Unit

Getting the most out of your storage unit comes down to smart packing. These tips can help you fit more in your unit and keep your items safer:

  • Use uniform box sizes — Standard-sized boxes stack better and make better use of vertical space.
  • Label everything clearly — Use large, legible labels on all four sides of each box. You'll thank yourself later.
  • Disassemble furniture — Tables, bed frames, and shelving units take up far less space when broken down. Keep hardware in labeled bags taped to the furniture piece.
  • Store items you'll need soonest near the door — Put the things you'll access regularly toward the front, and long-term items toward the back.
  • Use wardrobe boxes for clothing — These keep clothes wrinkle-free and hanging without taking up floor space.
  • Wrap fragile items well — Bubble wrap, packing paper, or even towels and blankets work great for protecting breakables.
  • Leave a walking aisle — A center aisle down the length of your unit makes it much easier to reach items in the back without unpacking everything.
  • Use the insides of drawers and appliances — Pack linens, towels, or soft items inside dressers and washing machines to maximize space.
