At Glacier West Self Storage, we offer indoor and drive-up storage, each with different advantages depending on how you plan to use it. 

Indoor storage refers to units inside a building. These spaces provide more protection against the elements than drive-up spaces as they’re fully covered inside a structure. 

Drive-up storage spaces are located along the exterior of the building, so you can drive right up to them. These spaces allow you to quickly unload and load your vehicle, making loading in and out of your storage unit a breeze. These are convenient if you plan on storing belongings that would be difficult to carry in and out of a building, especially when those buildings have multiple floors.

Yes! Deciding on the right unit size can be challenging without being physically present. We provide a size guide to give you a rough estimate of what unit would be best for you, and our friendly storage experts are available to help you decide. However, if you change your mind, we will be glad to work with you to find another on-site unit that fits your situation.

Access and office hours vary by location. Please check with your nearest facility for the most accurate information. During office hours, our storage experts are ready to assist you with any questions you may have and with renting a space.
