Parowan vs. Cedar City Storage Cost

Published on 10/31/2026

Storage unit prices in Cedar City, Utah range widely: on October 31, 2026, posted rates at four Cedar City facilities ran from $33 to $95 a month for a 10x10 and $40 to $75 a month for outdoor RV parking. At AA Personal Storage in Parowan, Utah, about 20 miles north on I-15, a 10x10 is $65 a month and RV parking starts at $30, with 24/7 access.

If you live in Cedar City or Enoch and you're pricing storage, the honest answer is that Parowan is not always cheaper. Some older Cedar City units cost less than ours, often with a waiting list. Mid-size units, large units, and RV parking are where a short drive up the interstate usually saves money. This guide lays out real posted prices side by side, explains the costs that don't show up in the headline rate, and helps you decide whether the drive pays off.

How Much Do Storage Units Cost in Cedar City, Utah?

In Cedar City, a 5x10 storage unit was posted at $26 to $65 a month, a 10x10 at $33 to $95, a 10x15 at $44 to $110, and a 10x20 at $64 to $125 when we checked on October 31, 2026. Prices depend on the facility's age, door and drive aisle size, and extras like gated entry.

We gathered these numbers from the public online rent pages of four Cedar City storage facilities on October 31, 2026. Rates change often, promotions come and go, and several of the lowest prices were for units on a waiting list, so treat this as a snapshot, not a quote. Always confirm the current rate with the facility before you rent.

Unit size Cedar City posted range (Oct 31, 2026) What drives the price
5x10 $26 to $65 Low end was an older facility; newer sites cost more
10x10 $33 to $95 Low end was a "discount row" that's hard to reach with a moving truck; high end was a premium unit with door seals
10x15 $44 to $110 Low end waitlisted; premium units at the top
10x20 $64 to $125 Double-door and newer units at the top
10x25 $150 (one facility listed this size) Fewer facilities offer it
10x30 $100 to $175 Low end waitlisted
Outdoor RV or trailer parking (25 to 40 ft) $40 to $75 Paved, gated spots cost the most

A few patterns stood out. The cheapest Cedar City units came from an older facility where most sizes were on a waiting list and one row was discounted because large trucks and trailers have trouble getting to it. The highest prices came from newer facilities with premium touches like door brush seals, paved RV spaces, and electronic gate entry. Some facilities also ran first-month-free or percent-off promotions, which lower your first bill but not the ongoing rate.

Is Storage Cheaper in Parowan or Cedar City?

It depends on the size. For the smallest units, the lowest Cedar City prices can beat ours. For 10x15 and larger units, and especially for RV, boat, and trailer parking, AA Personal Storage in Parowan is at or below the middle of the Cedar City range we found.

Here's a size-by-size comparison using the October 31, 2026 numbers:

Size Cedar City posted range AA Personal Storage, Parowan Bottom line
5x10 $26 to $65 $40 An older Cedar City facility can be cheaper
10x10 $33 to $95 $65 Mid-range; cheapest Cedar City options had access limits or waitlists
10x15 $44 to $110 $75 Below most available Cedar City 10x15s
10x20 class $64 to $125 for a 10x20 $125 for a larger 10x25 50 more sq ft for the price of a top-end Cedar City 10x20
10x25 $150 $125 $25 a month less, $300 a year
RV or trailer parking $40 to $75 $30 (10x30) or $40 (12x40) Usually the biggest savings

We don't rent a 10x20. If you're shopping for one, compare it with our 10x15 or 10x25. Our guide to what fits in a 10x25 storage unit shows what the larger size holds, and 10x10 vs. 10x15 helps if you're between the two smaller sizes.

Where Parowan usually wins

  • RV, boat, and trailer parking. Posted Cedar City outdoor parking ran $40 to $75 a month. Our 10x30 space is $30 and our 12x40 is $40. Over a year, that gap can reach a few hundred dollars.
  • Large units. A 10x25 here is $125 a month, compared with the one posted Cedar City 10x25 at $150.
  • Access hours. AA Personal Storage is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. At least one Cedar City facility we checked limits gate access to 6 a.m. to 10 p.m., and others post office or operating hours, so ask each facility when you can actually get in.

Where Cedar City may win

  • The very cheapest small units. An older Cedar City facility posted a 5x10 for less than ours, though many of its other sizes were waitlisted.
  • Extras we don't offer. Some Cedar City facilities advertise gated entry, paved RV spaces, power, or climate-controlled units. AA Personal Storage has no gate or keypad, no climate control, and our outdoor parking is uncovered and not paved. If you need those, they're worth paying for.
  • Distance. If you visit your unit every week, being five minutes away matters.

Does the Drive From Cedar City Cost More Than You Save?

Usually not, unless you visit often. AA Personal Storage is about 20 miles north of Cedar City, or about 40 miles round trip. If you visit a few times a year, the fuel is small compared with what you can save on a larger unit or RV parking.

Here's a simple way to run your own numbers:

  1. Find your monthly savings. Subtract our rate from the Cedar City rate you were quoted for the same size.
  2. Multiply by 12 to get yearly savings.
  3. Estimate your trip cost. Divide 40 miles by your vehicle's miles per gallon and multiply by your local gas price. For example (example figures only), a truck that gets 20 mpg with gas at $3.50 a gallon spends about $7 per round trip.
  4. Multiply by trips per year and compare.

Example: you park a 30-foot trailer. If your Cedar City quote is $70 a month and our 10x30 space is $30, you save $40 a month, or $480 a year. Even 10 round trips at about $7 each, roughly $70, leaves you about $410 ahead. If you only store a few boxes in a 5x10 and visit every weekend, a closer Cedar City unit may make more sense.

What Costs Are Hidden in a Storage Unit Price?

The monthly rate is only part of the cost. Before you compare, ask every facility about move-in fees, deposits, protection plans, locks, and contract length, because those can change your real first-month and yearly cost.

Cost item What to ask AA Personal Storage
Reservation or admin fee Is there a fee, and is it credited? $50 reservation fee, credited toward move-in; holds the unit 25 days
Contract Month to month or a set term? Month to month
Protection plan Is it required, and what does it cost? Tenant Protection plans from $12 to $42 a month for $2,000 to $15,000 of coverage; see Tenant Protection
Lock Do I buy one? Bring your own disc lock; a few units come with a lock
Discounts Military, promotions? 10% military discount, no proof required
Payment Which cards? Visa, Mastercard, and Discover; pay online

Promotions deserve a second look. A first-month-free deal saves one month's rent, but a unit that costs $15 more every month gives that back within months. Compare what you'll pay over the time you expect to store.

Which Option Fits Your Situation?

If you're storing large items, parking an RV or trailer, or visiting only now and then, Parowan usually comes out ahead. If you need a tiny unit nearby, climate control, or a gated lot, a Cedar City facility may suit you better.

Your situation Likely better fit
Parking an RV, boat, or trailer you use a few times a season AA Personal Storage, Parowan
Storing a 2- to 3-bedroom household during a move or remodel AA Personal Storage, Parowan (10x15 or 10x25)
