Hi All, does anyone know of any relatively cheap storage in New York?

We are using American Self-Storage on Long Island (just over Queensboro Bridge) - $89 a month with first month $1, for a 5 ft x 8 ft unit. Cheapest I could find anywhere and was close to us on the UES. We were up the road from Manhattan Mini storage on E 62 nd and for the same space it was $600+ per month. Definitely worth the $15 Uber each way. It fit all our 1 br unit furniture and about 20 boxes. We got a Task Rabbit to get it all there for about $250 and they were super fast and careful, especially as we were on the 4 th floor of a walk-up. Good luck!

Hey Julia, I use Tuck-it-away Storage, in Harlem I pay $290 a month and can fit the furniture of an entire one bedroom apartment in there. I know they usually have good deals going. If you don't need to access the stuff too frequently I would 100% say Box Butler, you can't really store furniture there but it's great for if you are going away and need to sublet, because they bring all the plastic bins to your door, you pack them, and then they pick them up, also the monthly fee is very low because it's not something you can access every day. You have to organize to have the boxes brought to you, so having a list of what is in what bin will help. Don't do Manhattan Mini Storage they are a rip off. And if you can so boldly go to Queens or Brooklyn the storage units are ALWAYS cheaper there. Some in Harlem too. All very secure they just don't have air conditioning and carpet floors. Like Manhattan Mini storage but really who needs carpet in a storage unit!? Hope this helps!

OR... a friend of mine owns this company Drive Up Storage. He knows me and may be able to give you a deal. I don't know. His name is Jonathan Hotchandani. http://www.driveupstorage.com
