When looking for a storage unit, one feature you might notice is 24 hour access. But do you really need it? At Bolt Storage, we offer flexible access options across our 63 locations in 12 states, and while not all facilities offer 24 hour access, our customer support is available 24/7. Let's break down whether around the clock access is right for you.
What Are 24-Hour Storage Units?
24 hour storage units allow you to access your belongings any time of day or night. Unlike standard storage units, which typically have access hours from early morning to late evening, these units give you total flexibility.
Who Benefits Most from 24-Hour Access?
Not everyone needs 24/7 access. But in certain cases, it can be a game-changer:
- Small Business Owners: Need to grab inventory or equipment outside of regular business hours.
- Frequent Travelers: Return home late or leave early and need access to gear or documents.
- Night Shift Workers: Work odd hours and can't get to the unit during standard times.
- Emergency Storage Users: Need last-minute access during a move or unexpected situation.
If any of these situations sound like yours, 24-hour access might be worth it.
When You Probably Don’t Need 24/7 Access
If you’re storing seasonal items like holiday decorations, furniture, or documents you rarely access, standard access hours may be more than enough. In fact, choosing a non 24 hour unit may save you money, as these options are often more affordable.

- Safe and Secure
