Does renting storage units require rental protection?

We currently offer a few different options, so you are able to choose the best for your situation. Ask our storage experts which plan would be best for you.
Are locks provided/sold on site?
Yes, our storage facilities sell storage supplies – including storage unit locks – on premise. At Marion Self Storage, our offices sell a variety of packing and moving supplies, including boxes, packing tape, furniture covers, box cutters and more!
How do I pay my bill online?
Navigate to the top of our website, and click on the icon labeled “Pay Bill”. From there, login and click on the storage unit in your account that you wish to pay the bill for. Additionally, you can also choose to prepay for your upcoming month’s bill.

Can I rent short-term?
Yes, Marion Self Storage offers convenient month-by-month storage leases to allow for flexible rental space. You will never be stuck in a long contract. Rent for a month, a few months, or find your long-term storage solution with us.
Do you have movers?
No, currently our storage facilities do not offer any sort of moving service. However, we list our Neighborhood Friends, so our tenants can find local assistance with trusted businesses.
Can I live or sleep in a storage unit?
No, and we strongly discourage it. Living in a storage unit is prohibited by various local and federal housing laws. Additionally, living in a storage unit is extremely unsafe. Storage unit doors lock from the outside and do not have running water to support a residence.
What storage unit size do I need?

Depending on the amount of items you are looking to store, how long you are looking to store, and what you are trying to store, different storage unit sizes might serve you better. Our online storage calculator can give you a storage unit size recommendation based on the objects you enter. Simply input any items you plan on placing in your storage unit, and this convenient calculator will provide you with an estimate as to how much storage space you will need. Use this estimate as a reference to selecting your correct storage unit.

Yes. When you rent a storage unit through our online storage rentals, you are able to access your storage unit immediately once you receive your confirmation email. The online rental process lets you choose your storage unit and pay for it within minutes – it’s that simple. Once the transaction is completed, you can move into your storage unit right away.
