When it comes to finding secure self storage in Chesterfield, one of the biggest questions people ask is:
“How much space do I really need?”
At Go Store, we know that choosing the right unit size can be confusing; too small and you’ll struggle to fit everything in, too big and you’ll pay for space you don’t use. This guide (and our handy chart below) will help you find the perfect fit for your belongings.
Why Size Matters
Your storage unit should make life easier, not more stressful. The right size means:
- You can access and move around your belongings easily.
- You’re not overpaying for unused space.
- Your items stay organised, tidy, and damage-free.
Whether you’re storing household items, business stock, or even a vehicle, our storage facility in Chesterfield has a range of options to suit every need.

💡 Tip: If you’ll be accessing your unit regularly, allow some walking space inside. It makes finding items much easier.
Business Storage Tip
If you’re a local business needing secure storage in Chesterfield, use these estimates:
- 25–50 sq ft: Paperwork, archives, or marketing materials.
- 75–100 sq ft: Tools, boxes, or light inventory.
- 150+ sq ft: Palletised goods, large equipment, or seasonal stock.
Many local trades, retailers, and online sellers already use Go Store Chesterfield as their off-site warehouse.
How to Make the Most of Your Space
- Disassemble furniture – saves space and prevents damage.
- Stack boxes smartly – heavy at the bottom, light at the top.
- Label everything clearly so you can find items fast.
- Use shelving if you’ll need regular access.
Our team can also help you plan your unit layout when you move in.
