Self storage differs from warehousing in that you, the owner of the goods, retain control over your goods after you have put them into storage. You lock your storage unit with your own padlock, and have free access to your goods at all times during the business hours of the storage facility.
Naturally you pay a fee to use the storage space and are subject to the necessary regulations of the storage facility, but you pay no extra fees to get to your goods whenever you want to.

Check with each storage facility whether they are set up to store cars or boats.
