EZ Storage offers trailer storage at multiple locations, with pricing and features that vary by site
EZ Storage is a self-storage company that operates locations across several states and rents climate-controlled and non-climate-controlled units for vehicles, trailers, boats, and other equipment. The company does not publish a single national price list — costs depend on your location, the size of the unit you need, and whether you choose climate control. Before committing to any storage arrangement, you will need to contact your local EZ Storage facility directly to learn what they have available, what they charge, and what their lease terms require.
Trailer storage at EZ Storage typically means renting a ground-level or covered outdoor space large enough to hold a utility trailer, travel trailer, or boat trailer. Some locations offer drive-up access, which means you can pull your trailer directly into the unit without having to unload it or move it by hand. Others may require you to park in a designated lot. The specific setup depends on which facility you use.
Key Takeaways
- EZ Storage locations set their own prices and terms, so you must contact the facility nearest you to find out what they charge and what sizes are available.
- Most EZ Storage sites offer both covered and uncovered trailer spaces, with covered options costing more but protecting your trailer from weather and sun damage.
- Drive-up access is available at some locations, allowing you to park and retrieve your trailer without staff information.
- EZ Storage typically requires a signed lease and a security deposit before you can move your trailer in.
- You should inspect the facility in person, check the security features, and ask about insurance requirements before signing any agreement.
How to find your nearest EZ Storage location and get a price quote
EZ Storage operates facilities in multiple states, but not everywhere. Start by visiting the company's website and using their location finder tool, or call their customer service line to ask which facilities are closest to you. When you contact a location, have the following information ready: the type of trailer you need to store (utility, travel, boat, etc.), the approximate length and width of your trailer, and how long you think you will need storage.
The facility manager will tell you what unit sizes they have available, what the monthly rent is, whether climate control is offered, and what the lease terms are. Ask specifically whether the price includes any utilities, whether there are additional fees (such as administrative fees or gate access fees), and what happens if you need to cancel early. Some facilities charge an early termination fee; others do not.
What to look for when you visit an EZ Storage facility
Before you sign a lease, visit the facility in person during daylight hours. Walk the grounds and look at the actual space where your trailer would be stored. Check whether the surface is paved, gravel, or dirt — this matters because rain can turn unpaved lots into mud, and your trailer tires can sink or get stuck. Look at the condition of other trailers stored there to get a sense of how well the facility maintains the property.
Ask about security features: Does the facility have a fence around the perimeter? Are there security cameras? Is there a gate that closes at night, and do you get a key or access code? What are the hours during which you can retrieve your trailer? Some facilities allow 24/7 access; others have restricted hours. If you need to get your trailer out at 6 a.m. on a Sunday, confirm that you will be able to do so.
Ask whether the facility requires you to carry insurance on your trailer while it is stored there. Many do, and some will ask you to name the facility as an additional insured on your policy. Get this in writing before you sign the lease so there are no surprises later.
Understanding lease terms and what they typically include
EZ Storage leases are usually month-to-month, though some facilities may offer discounts if you commit to a longer term. The lease will specify the monthly rent, the security deposit amount (usually equal to one month's rent), and the date your payment is due each month. Read the section on late fees carefully — if you miss a payment, the facility may charge a late fee in addition to the rent owed.
The lease will also state what you are and are not allowed to store in the unit. Most facilities prohibit hazardous materials, explosives, and flammable liquids. Some prohibit living in the unit or running a business from it. Ask whether you can store additional items (tools, spare parts, etc.) inside or near your trailer, or whether the unit must contain only the trailer itself.
Check whether the lease includes a clause about what happens if the facility is damaged by weather, fire, or theft. Most self-storage facilities are not responsible for loss or damage to your property — that is why insurance is important. The lease should make this clear.
Comparing EZ Storage to other trailer storage options
EZ Storage is one option, but it is not the only one. Other self-storage companies operate in many areas, and some specialize in vehicle and trailer storage. Before you commit to EZ Storage, get quotes from at least one or two other facilities in your area so you can compare price, location, security, and access hours.
You might also consider storing your trailer at a private lot or on someone's property if you know someone who has space and is willing to rent it to you. This is often cheaper than a commercial facility, but make sure any agreement is in writing and that you understand what insurance is required. Some homeowners' insurance policies do not cover trailers stored on residential property, so check with your insurance agent first.
What to do if you have a problem with your storage unit
If your trailer is damaged while stored at EZ Storage, or if you have a dispute with the facility over fees or lease terms, start by contacting the facility manager in writing. Keep copies of all correspondence. If the manager does not resolve the issue to your satisfaction, ask to speak with the regional manager or the company's corporate office.
Check your state's self-storage laws before you sign a lease. Many states have specific rules about how facilities must handle abandoned property, what notice they must give before selling your trailer for unpaid rent, and what your rights are if the facility is damaged or closes. Your state's attorney general's office or consumer protection agency can tell you what those rules are.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does EZ Storage charge extra for drive-up access?
Some EZ Storage locations charge more for drive-up units than for standard spaces, but this varies by facility. Ask your local EZ Storage manager whether drive-up is available and whether it costs extra. If it does, compare the price to non-drive-up options to decide whether the convenience is worth the additional cost.
Can I store my trailer at EZ Storage if I don't have a lease?
No. EZ Storage requires a signed lease and a security deposit before you can move your trailer in. The lease protects both you and the facility by spelling out the terms, the rent amount, and what happens if either party breaks the agreement.
What happens if I can't pay my storage bill?
If you miss a payment, the facility will likely charge a late fee and may send you a notice. If you continue to miss payments, the facility may eventually place a lien on your trailer or sell it to cover the unpaid rent. Your state's self-storage laws determine how much notice the facility must give you before taking this action. Contact the facility when ready if you think you will miss a payment.
Is my trailer covered by insurance while it's at EZ Storage?
EZ Storage does not insure your trailer. You must carry your own insurance. Ask your insurance agent whether your current policy covers your trailer while it is in storage, and whether you need to add the storage facility as an additional insured. Some policies have limits on how long a vehicle can be stored without coverage.
Can I move my trailer out whenever I want?
Most EZ Storage leases are month-to-month, so you can usually move your trailer out at the end of any month by giving notice. However, check your lease for an early termination clause — some facilities charge a fee if you leave before your lease term ends. Also confirm the facility's access hours so you know when you can retrieve your trailer.
