Storage Space Estimator

GET THE MOST OUT OF YOUR STORAGE SPACE

Wayside Compartments offers a variety of unit sizes. This Space Estimator is used to help you select the right size unit.

To determine the space size you need, inventory your goods using the room/category charts provided and follow the steps below:

• Fill in the Number of each article stored.
• Multiply the Number of each article by it's Cubic feet amount.
• Put the answer in Total Cubic feet column.
• Add up all your article's Total Cubic Feet amounts to arrive at your
Total Cubic Feet
of Storage Space Required.*
• With this number go to Sizes & Rates page to pick the right size for you.

* This calculation assumes your articles are fully stackable. Somewhat more space would be required for an aisle (18" wide) to permit access to all items. Multiply 12 times the length of the space you are considering and subtract that from its listed cubic feet for your available cubic feet.

Our ceilings are 8 feet high
(except the 5' x 20' and 7 1/2' x 20' which are 7 feet)
