When Colleges Students Benefit from More Storage Space
Downsizing: Moving from a larger apartment into a smaller one or a shared living space can leave you with more belongings than you have room for. A storage unit lets you keep those items safe until you need them, without crowding your new home.
Gap Years & Internships: Students taking a gap year or an internship away from campus can store their belongings securely and pick them up when they return to school or come back from their internship.
Organization: Storage keeps non-essential items out of cramped dorms and apartments, giving you a more organized and less cluttered place to study.
Study Abroad: Spending a semester overseas? Self storage gives your personal belongings and furniture a secure home until you return, so you don’t have to keep paying rent for living space you aren’t using.
Summer Storage: Instead of hauling dorm furnishings, books, and seasonal clothing home over the summer, you can store them close to campus. This saves both time and transportation costs.
Self storage is not just a short-term option. It can also handle long-term storage needs and give you the flexibility to adjust as your plans change. 3 Key Self Storage offers month-by-month leases, so you can keep a unit only as long as you need it.

Choosing the Right Unit for Your Belongings
The right unit depends on what you are storing and how you plan to use it. Keep these main tips in mind as you compare options.
What Storage Unit Size Do You Need?
A small unit is often enough for a few boxes of books, seasonal clothing, a desk chair, and personal keepsakes. If you are storing a mattress, a couch, or the contents of a full dorm room, you will need to double-check the measurements of your largest items to make sure you have enough room in your unit.
- For a single dorm room’s worth of belongings, a 5×5 unit is usually the smallest size worth considering. It holds about the contents of a closet or a few dozen boxes, such as books, seasonal clothing, a desk chair, a small fridge, and keepsakes.
- A 5×10 unit is a common choice for students moving out of a dorm or apartment for a semester or summer. It can fit a twin mattress with a box spring, a loveseat or small dresser, and several bins or boxes.
- If you’re storing the contents of a full dorm room or a small apartment, a 10×10 unit is the usual next step. It can hold a couch, a full-size bed, a desk, a dresser, and a larger number of boxes. Choose a 10×10 only if you truly need that much space, because paying for a larger unit than you need adds cost over the length of your rental.

Think About How Often You Will Need Access
If you do not need to store items that may be sensitive to temperature changes over time, an affordable option to consider is drive-up storage. When you rent a drive-up unit, you can load and unload directly from your vehicle, so visits are quick, and you can minimize heavy lifting. 3 Key Self Storage offers drive-up units in a wide selection of sizes.
Choose Climate Control for Sensitive Items
Electronics, musical instruments, and important papers are often better kept in a climate-controlled unit. These specialty indoor units maintain specific levels of humidity and temperature, so your items are kept in the perfect condition.
Both 3 Key Self Storage locations in Campbellsville and Lebanon offer indoor storage units, as well as drive-up storage, so you can pick the option that best suits your items and budget.
