Self-Storage in Montreal: Sizes, Costs & Best Locations

Montreal Storage Unit Sizes and What They Cost

A 5x5-foot locker ($60–$100/month) holds boxes, seasonal gear, and small items — perfect if you're downsizing temporarily. A 5x10 ($90–$160/month) fits a one-bedroom apartment's contents. A 10x10 ($140–$230/month) handles a two- to three-bedroom home. For a full house or large furniture, a 10x20 ($200–$350/month) gives you room to walk around your belongings.

Prices vary by neighborhood and floor level. Ground-floor, drive-up units cost 15-25% more than upper-floor units requiring an elevator. Downtown facilities near Griffintown and Old Montreal charge premium rates, while locations in Saint-Laurent, Lachine, and the East End offer better value for the same square footage.

Best Self-Storage Locations Across Montreal

Downtown and nearby: StorageMart on rue Saint-Patrick in Griffintown, Public Storage on rue Bridge near the Champlain Bridge.

What to Look for When Choosing a Facility

Security features matter: look for 24-hour camera surveillance, individual unit alarms, gated access with a personal code, and on-site management. Ask about insurance — most facilities offer optional coverage for $10–$25/month, or your renter's insurance may already cover stored belongings.

Visit in person before signing. Check hallway widths (can you roll a dolly?), elevator size, and loading-area access. Ask about move-in specials — first-month-free deals are common, especially at facilities trying to fill vacancies in fall and winter when demand dips after the July 1st rush.
