SpareFoot

SpareFoot is a consumer marketplace for self-storage. A renter searches by address, city or ZIP code, narrows by location, price, size or amenities, and books a unit at a listed facility. Listings show the promotional rate against the regular rate, how many units are left at that price, the distance from the search point and the facility's review count.

Reservations are free and need no credit card; some facilities let the rental be completed online, and otherwise the renter visits the facility to move in. Alongside general storage the site carries specialty categories — RV, camper and trailer parking, boat storage indoors and out, classic and spare vehicle storage, wine storage, student storage and facilities offering military discounts — and publishes a size guide that maps 25-75 square foot units to a closet or small bedroom, 75-200 square feet to a bedroom or one-car garage, and 200-300 square feet to a one- or two-car garage.

The site says it lists more than 20,000 storage facilities in all 50 states, has served over one million customers, and holds a 4.3 out of 5 rating from more than 41,000 Trustpilot reviews. It has been operating for more than a decade. The footer links to Storage.com, SelfStorage.com and Storable.com.

Only the consumer homepage rendered in this crawl. What an operator pays to be listed, how reservations are billed and how the facility feed is maintained are not described on it, so a facility owner should get those terms in writing before listing.

Best for

Renters comparing nearby storage units on price, size and promotion before committing, and operators treating the site as one demand channel; listing economics have to be confirmed with SpareFoot directly.
