Queens' parking regulations are brutal. There are no overnight zones, and in residential permit areas, most people can't legally park on the street long-term. Vehicle storage solves this.
Motorcycle storage is cheaper and more available than car storage. Boat storage exists, although it's very limited—mostly near the waterfront areas in eastern Queens.
10 Queens facilities offer drive-up units where you back right up to the door. The cheapest is $114.00/month at CubeSmart Self Storage - NY Glendale Cooper Ave. Rents average $404.13/month.
Drive-up makes sense if you've got a car and heavy items to move. No elevators, no narrow hallways, no hassle. Just back up and load.
Trade-off: There are fewer drive-up options in western Queens (Astoria, LIC), where land costs more. It's more common in the eastern areas.
6 facilities offer 24 hr access. The cheapest is $17.00/month at Prime Storage - Queens - 20th Ave. The average price is $44.33/month.
It is worth the premium if you work late shifts, overnight hours, or need weekend access when normal hours don't work. It's not worth it if business hours cover your schedule.
Many facilities offer deals like 50% off the 1st month's rent and 1st month free promotions. Check the listings above—these change frequently.
In the fall, from September to November, there are typically more promotions. From May through August, these deals dry up as it's peak moving season in NYC. College students are finishing for the summer, apartment leases are ending, and people are relocating—demand spikes and deals disappear.
Moving during summer? Try to book 4-6 weeks in advance before availability gets tight.
Queens spans across 109 square miles. What's "near" depends entirely on how you're getting there.
Do you have a car?
Yes - Distance matters less if you're mobile. You can compare prices across different neighborhoods to get better value. Jamaica and southeastern Queens beat Astoria pricing.
No - Subway access is everything. Being two blocks from the N/W train beats saving $30/month in a location you can't reach easily. Check which lines run near facilities before you book.
How often will you access it?
Weekly - Stay close even if it costs more. That "20-minute subway ride" will be a killer when you're hauling boxes twice a week.
Monthly or less - Drive a little further and save some money. Eastern Queens runs 20-30% cheaper than Astoria and Long Island City.
What are you storing?
NYC weather extremes mean climate control prevents damage to most apartment items. 55 facilities offer it starting at $5.00/month.
How long are you storing?
Under 3 months : Convenience and subway access matter most.
6+ months - Price matters because the Astoria versus Jamaica differences add up to hundreds of dollars annually.

Storage units work well for most household items, furniture, seasonal goods, and business inventory. Facilities restrict flammable materials (gasoline, propane, paint thinner, chemicals), perishable food, plants, animals, and illegal items. Firearms, ammunition, and valuable items like jewelry vary. Some facilities prohibit them entirely, while others allow them with restrictions. Storing prohibited items can violate your lease agreement and result in access restrictions. Review your lease's prohibited items section to avoid issues.
Yes. Unit size has the biggest impact—small units start at$5.00/month while large units start at $319.93/month. Location and amenities, such as climate control, drive-up access, and 24/7 access also increase monthly pricing. Facilities in downtown Queens, generally cost more than those in nearby suburban areas.
Astoria (N/W lines), Long Island City (E/M/R/7), Flushing (7 train), Jamaica (E/J/Z), Forest Hills (E/F/M/R). Check facility addresses against subway maps before booking if you don't have a car. Being two blocks from a train matters way more than being "close" but unreachable.
Jamaica and southeastern Queens run 20-30% cheaper than Astoria and Long Island City. If you have a car and access storage monthly, eastern areas save real money. If you're subway-dependent, paying more for western Queens accessibility makes sense.
