What Fits in a 10x25 Storage Unit

A 10x25 storage unit holds the contents of a typical 3-bedroom house, or a full 2-bedroom house plus its garage, including large items like a sofa, refrigerator, washer and dryer, and dining set. At AA Personal Storage in Parowan, Utah, the 10x25 is 250 square feet with a 9-foot ceiling and an 8-foot-wide roll-up door, and it rents for $125 a month (as listed in October 2026), month to month.

A 10x25 is the biggest unit in our medium lineup and one of the most useful sizes for a whole-house move, a home sale, or a long remodel. This guide covers how big a 10x25 storage unit really is, what fits inside it, how to load it so you can still reach your things, and when a different size makes more sense. To compare every size we offer, see our full storage unit size guide.

How Big Is a 10x25 Storage Unit?

A 10x25 storage unit is 10 feet wide and 25 feet deep, for 250 square feet of floor space. At AA Personal Storage in Parowan, Utah, it has a 9-foot ceiling, which works out to about 2,250 cubic feet of space.

Here are the exact measurements from our Rent page:

Feature 10x25 at AA Personal Storage
Floor space 250 sq ft
Ceiling height 9 ft
Approximate volume about 2,250 cubic feet
Door type Roll-up, drive-up, ground level
Door width 8.0 ft
Door height 7 ft 10 in
Inside lighting No
Monthly rate (October 2026) $125

To picture it, a 10x25 is roughly the size of a long one-car garage, or about two and a half 10x10 units placed end to end. These comparisons are approximate, since garages vary a lot. The long, narrow shape matters: you load it from the 10-foot end, so the back of the unit is 25 feet from the door. That is why the loading plan below puts the things you rarely need in the back.

What Fits in a 10x25 Storage Unit?

A 10x25 fits the furniture and boxes from about three bedrooms, plus appliances. Our Rent page describes it as fitting "the contents of a multi-bedroom house, including several oversized items like a couch, a refrigerator, a washer/dryer and a dining room set or several large boxes."

Here is an example of what a well-packed 10x25 can hold. Treat it as an estimate, since furniture sizes vary.

Bedrooms

  • One king or queen bed with frame and headboard
  • Two full or twin beds, mattresses standing on edge
  • Three dressers or chests of drawers
  • Two or three nightstands
  • A crib or toddler bed, or a desk and chair

Living and dining room

  • A sofa and loveseat, or a large sectional broken into pieces
  • One or two recliners or accent chairs
  • A coffee table and end tables
  • An entertainment center or TV stand, plus a large-screen TV in a box or padded blanket
  • A dining table with six chairs and a hutch or buffet

Kitchen and laundry

  • A refrigerator
  • A washer and dryer
  • A microwave, small appliances, and dishes in boxes
  • About 60 to 100 moving boxes in mixed sizes, depending on how much furniture you also store

Garage and yard

  • Lawn mower, garden tools, and a wheelbarrow
  • Bikes, camp gear, and coolers
  • Patio table and chairs
  • A tool chest, ladders, and shelving units

A piano can also fit. Our Rent page lists a piano as something a 10x15 holds, so a 10x25 has room for one along with other furniture.

What won't fit in a 10x25?

You can't store a car, truck, RV, boat, or other vehicle inside any enclosed unit at our facility. Vehicles go in our uncovered outdoor RV, boat, and trailer parking, which starts at $30 a month for a 10x30 space. A 10x25 is also usually too small for a fully furnished 4-bedroom house with appliances; for that, our 20x26 unit (520 sq ft, $210 a month) is described on the Rent page as holding a four-bedroom house with some major appliances.

How Many Rooms Does a 10x25 Storage Unit Hold?

A 10x25 usually holds a 3-bedroom house, or a full 2-bedroom house with appliances and garage items. A lightly furnished 4-bedroom home can sometimes fit if you pack tightly and leave large pieces behind.

Use this as a starting point:

Your home Fits in a 10x25? Notes
2-bedroom apartment Yes, with room to spare A 10x15 ($75) is often enough
2-bedroom house with garage and appliances Yes A common choice for this home
3-bedroom house Usually The most common use for a 10x25
4-bedroom house, lightly furnished Sometimes Pack tight and stack to the ceiling
4-bedroom house, fully furnished with appliances Usually not Consider a 20x26 ($210)

If you are sizing a smaller home, our guide to storage unit size for a 2-bedroom walks through it room by room.

How Much Is a 10x25 Storage Unit in Parowan, Utah?

A 10x25 storage unit at AA Personal Storage in Parowan, Utah, rents for $125 a month, as listed on our Rent page in October 2026. Rentals are month to month, so you can move out or switch sizes without a long-term contract.

Other costs to know:

  • Reservation fee: $50 to reserve online. It holds the unit for 25 days and is credited toward your move-in charges. If you don't move in within 25 days, it is forfeited.
  • Military discount: 10% off for military, with no proof required. Just mention it when you rent or call.
  • Locks: bring your own disc lock. A few units come with a lock and key on the floor.

Is a 10x25 or a 14x20 Better?

Pick a 10x25 if you want the lowest price for a whole-house unit and most of your items fit through an 8-foot door. Pick a 14x20 or 15x20 if you want a wider, squarer space that is easier to walk around in, or need more ceiling height.

Feature 10x25 14x20 15x20
Floor space 250 sq ft 280 sq ft 300 sq ft
Ceiling height 9 ft 10 ft or 11.5 ft 10 ft
Door width 8.0 ft 7 ft 11 in 11.5 ft
Door height 7 ft 10 in 8.0 ft 8.0 ft
Monthly rate (Oct 2026) $125 $145 $155
Best for 3-bedroom house, long and deep loads Tall stacks, workshop items Wide furniture, easy loading

The 15x20 has the widest door we offer, at 11.5 feet, which helps with oversized furniture and equipment. The 14x20 with the 11.5-foot ceiling gives you the most stacking height. If you are on the fence between a 10x15 and a 10x25, the 10x25 costs $50 more a month but gives you 100 more square feet, enough for a garage's worth of tools and yard gear.

How Do You Pack a 10x25 Storage Unit?

Load a 10x25 from back to front: heavy, rarely needed items go in the back, and the things you'll want first go near the door. Leave a narrow walkway down one side so you can reach the back without unloading everything.

  1. Measure your big pieces first. The door is 8.0 feet wide and 7 feet 10 inches tall, so a sofa, refrigerator, or tall armoire goes straight in, but check anything longer or taller.
  2. Start with appliances and heavy furniture against the back wall. Clean and fully dry refrigerators, washers, and dryers, and prop their doors slightly open to prevent mildew and odors.
  3. Stand mattresses and sofas on end along one side wall, wrapped in covers or plastic.
  4. Stack boxes heaviest on the bottom and lighter ones on top, up toward the 9-foot ceiling. Use same-size boxes so stacks stay stable.
  5. Keep a walkway about two feet wide down one side of the unit.
  6. Put seasonal and daily-use items near the door, such as holiday decorations, tools, or a box of kitchen basics.
  7. Label every box on two sides and keep a simple list or phone photos of what is where.
  8. Bring a flashlight or headlamp. Our units don't have inside lighting, though the facility is well-lit at night.

Who Rents a 10x25 Storage Unit in Iron County?

People most often rent a 10x25 when they need to store a whole house for a few weeks or months. Common reasons around Parowan include:

  • Selling a home or moving into a new build. Store everything while you stage, close, or wait on construction.
  • Relocating to southern Utah. Store your household while you look for a home in Parowan, Cedar City, Enoch, or Brian Head.
  • Remodeling. Clear out several rooms at once while floors, paint, or a kitchen get done.
  • Combining households or downsizing. Hold furniture while you decide what to keep, sell, or hand down.

What Should You Not Store in a 10x25?

Don't store anything flammable, perishable, alive, wet, or illegal. Our FAQ lists the items tenants may not store, including gasoline, propane tanks, paint thinner, fireworks, chemicals, explosives and ammunition, perishable food, unsealed pet food, plants, and wet or moldy items. Tires are only allowed on a vehicle in outdoor parking.

That matters with a garage load. Drain gas from lawn mowers and small engines, and leave propane tanks and paint cans out. Our units are standard drive-up units and are not climate controlled, so keep irreplaceable photos, important papers, and fragile electronics with you, and use sealed plastic bins and pallets or plastic sheeting to keep boxes off the bare floor.
