Houston's humidity is brutal on stored items. It's not the heat—Dallas and Phoenix get hotter. It's the 90% humidity that destroys stuff.
We track 154 facilities with climate control across Houston. The cheapest option right now is $7.00/month at Extra Space Storage - 3476 - Houston - Westpark Dr.. Average runs $39.63/month.
Non-climate units in Houston summer feel like saunas and smell like it. Mold grows on everything. Wood swells and warps. Metal rusts. Documents stick together. Leather gets musty and cracked. Even cardboard boxes fall apart from moisture.
Climate control maintains a steady temperature and pulls humidity out of the air. It's worth it for furniture, electronics, documents, photos, instruments, clothing, books—basically anything you'd keep inside your home.
After Harvey, this is a legitimate question. Some facilities experienced flooding. Some didn't. It matters.
Ground-floor drive-up units near Buffalo Bayou, White Oak Bayou, Brays Bayou, or Sims Bayou carry more risk. Upper-floor indoor units have better flood protection.
This isn't paranoia. It's Houston reality. Tropical storms happen frequently, and street flooding happens. Asking about flood history is smart, not rude.
There are currently 290 vehicle storage spaces available at Houston facilities. Prices start at $19.00/month.
20-foot spaces: Starting at $19.00/month, average $90.57/month
25-foot spaces: Starting at $24.00/month, average $107.86/month
30-foot spaces: Starting at $19.00/month, average $123.44/month
40-foot spaces (RVs, boats): Starting at $44.00/month, average $125.53/month
Boat storage makes sense in Houston. You're close to Galveston Bay, Clear Lake, Lake Houston, and Lake Conroe. There is a lots of fishing and recreational boating.
RV storage is very popular as well. Many facilities near Highway 6 southwest, I-45 north toward The Woodlands, and I-10 west toward Katy specialize in oversized vehicle storage.
Covered beats uncovered in Houston humidity. Constant moisture corrodes metal, degrades rubber seals, and damages electrical systems. Worth paying more for cover to prevent corrosion and UV damage.
146 Houston facilities offer drive-up units where you back your vehicle right to the door. The cheapest is $10.00/month at Extra Space Storage - 8613 - Houston - Beechnut Street. The average rent is $84.57/month.
Drive-up makes sense in Houston because afternoon thunderstorms hit with zero warning. You don't want to haul boxes across a parking lot when the sky opens up.
Trade-off: most drive-up units aren't climate-controlled. In Houston's humidity, that means mold and moisture damage for anything sensitive. Only use drive-up for items that handle humidity—tools, plastic bins, outdoor equipment.
10 facilities offer actual 24/7 access. The cheapest is $14.00/month at Storage King USA - 152 - Houston, TX. - Westpark Drive. The average cost is $72.30/month.
Worth it in Houston if you work oil and gas shift schedules, offshore rotations, or need flexibility around unpredictable work hours. Medical professionals doing overnight shifts use this too.
Not worth it if regular business hours work fine. Most people don't actually use 24/7 access even when they pay for it.
Many facilities in Houston offer 1st month free rent promotions. Check in the listings above and see what facilities are offering this deal today.
September through February generally has more deals as facilities try to fill units during slower months. May through August, there are less of these perks as it's peak moving season in Houston.
Hurricane season (June - November) affects availability, as well. People store belongings ahead of storms, which creates temporary demand spikes. After major storms, availability gets extremely tight.
Moving during summer or hurricane season? Book 4-6 weeks early. Units fill up fast.
Houston's 600+ square mile sprawl changes how "near" works compared to compact cities.
How often will you access it?
Weekly - Stay close even if it costs more. Houston traffic makes distance expensive in time. That 20-minute drive on Sunday becomes 50 minutes on Thursday at 5pm.
Monthly or less - You can go farther for better value. Katy, Pearland, and areas beyond Beltway 8 run 20-30% cheaper than inside Loop 610. Worth the occasional drive.
What are you storing?
Houston's humidity means climate control is essential for most items. It's not optional like drier cities. 154 facilities offer it for as low as $7.00/month.
Even short-term storage in Houston needs climate control for anything moisture-sensitive. Mold grows fast in Gulf Coast humidity.
How long are you storing?
Under 3 months - Convenience and flood protection matter most.
6+ months - Price matters because of the difference inside Loop 610 versus the outer areas, can add up to hundreds of dollars annually.
Storage facilities show you their rates. We show you everyone's rates. You see the market for what it really is so you can make informed decisions.
Some inside Loop 610 facilities charge $65.40/month for a 10×10. Katy or Pearland facilities charge way less for the same size. That's not pocket change—that's $50-100 monthly, $600-1,200 annually.
We track promotions too. Having you first month free can save you $36.34 to $101.88 depending on size of unit you rent. These deals aren't advertised all the time—some facilities only promote them during slow periods.

Yes - at least 290 storage facilities in Houston offer outdoor parking for car, boat, and RV storage. Some facilities even offer covered parking or indoor storage to help protect your vehicle from the elements. Indoor and covered options generally cost more than regular outdoor parking.

True 24/7 costs extra, usually another $15-20 monthly. Before paying for round-the-clock access, ask yourself if you'll really need your stuff at 2am.

Nothing hazardous—no gasoline, propane, paint thinner, or chemicals. No food that'll rot, no plants, definitely no pets. Firearms depend on the facility's rules. And obviously nothing illegal or stolen. Some places are strict about anything wet or smelly too. Break these rules and they can terminate your lease on the spot and keep your stuff, so it's worth reading the fine print.
