Which Unit Is Right for You?

5×10 Drive-Up — $59/month

Like a standard walk-in closet — holds around a dozen boxes, a desk and chair, and a mattress and box spring. Good for seasonal items, sports equipment, or a small apartment's worth of belongings. The most affordable drive-up unit at this facility.

10×10 Drive-Up — $84/month

About 100 square feet — enough to store the contents of a one-bedroom apartment. Fits a bedroom set, a couch, a few large boxes, and a small kitchen table. The most commonly rented size and a solid all-round starting point for Wells County households.

20×10 Drive-Up — $119/month

200 square feet in a wider, shallower footprint — useful when you need width more than depth, such as storing wide equipment, furniture, or items that are difficult to stack or manoeuvre in a narrower unit.

10×20 Drive-Up — $124/month

About the size of a one-car garage. Fits large appliances like a fridge and washer/dryer, three mattress sets, couches, dining furniture, bookcases, and dozens of boxes. A strong choice for storing a full household during a move or renovation in Ossian or Bluffton.

10×30 Drive-Up — $175/month

300 square feet — perfect for storing the contents of a large home or accommodating business inventory. Room for a four to five bedroom household's worth of furniture, appliances, and boxes, with space to organise rather than just stack.

15×20 Drive-Up — $175/month

300 square feet in a wider format — the same footprint as the 10×30 but shaped differently. Useful when you need more width and less depth, such as storing wide equipment, machinery, or large furniture sets that benefit from extra horizontal space.

30×20×10 Drive-Up — $216/month

600 square feet with 10 feet of height clearance — the largest drive-up unit at this facility. Built for contractors, small businesses, or anyone needing serious drive-up storage along the State Road 1 corridor in Wells County. Room for large equipment, a full business inventory, or multiple rooms worth of household belongings.

10×30 Outdoor Parking — $67/month

Uncovered outdoor parking for vehicles, trailers, boats, and RVs that don't need weather protection. The most affordable parking option at this facility — a straightforward, accessible choice for seasonal storage between trips to Ouabache State Park or other Wells County destinations.

16×44×13 Covered Parking — $183/month

A covered parking bay with 13 feet of height clearance — wide and tall enough for a full-length RV, large motorhome, or boat on a trailer. The roofline keeps your vehicle or boat protected from sun, rain, and snow year round, extending its life between trips.

16×44 Drive-Up — $290/month

A large drive-up space — 704 square feet — suited for oversized loads, large equipment, or anything that needs serious drive-up access at scale. Check current availability online for this size.

What Affects the Price of a Storage Unit in Ossian?

  • Unit size — larger units cost more.
  • Storage type — covered parking, drive-up units, and outdoor parking are each priced differently.
  • Availability — when a unit type is nearly full, rates tend to be higher.
  • Location — rates vary by facility and local market.
  • Active discounts — we offer discounts of up to 75% off depending on current availability.

According to the Self Storage Association, the average American rents a storage unit for 14 months — so getting the size and type right from the start matters more than most people expect.
