50 sq ft storage: what could fit?
A 50 sq ft storage unit is a useful mid-size option for many small moves. Depending on item shape and packing, it can hold a mixture of furniture, appliances and boxes.
Check your own load
SpaceSizer can estimate whether your belongings are closer to 40, 50 or 60 sq ft and suggest a practical vehicle too.

Vehicle guide
For SpaceSizer's current practical rules, loads up to around 50 sq ft are generally paired with a long-wheelbase cargo van guide. Exact vehicle capacity still depends heavily on item dimensions and loading style.
Should you go larger?
If you need frequent access, have several awkward items or do not want to stack heavily, a larger unit may be easier to use. SpaceSizer compares a tighter fit, a recommended option and a more comfortable option.
