A 10x10 storage unit is one of the most common mid-size options, but the monthly rate alone does not tell the full story. Two units with the same footprint can have different prices because the access type, climate-control status, fees, availability, and rental terms are different.
For Murray renters, the better question is not just "What is the cheapest 10x10?" It is "Which 10x10 fits what I'm storing, how often I'll visit, and what I'll actually pay after fees or promotions?"
This guide explains how to read 10x10 storage pricing, what can change the cost, and when a mid-size unit makes sense.
Storage prices change often, so fixed averages can get outdated quickly. When comparing 10x10 units, look beyond the first advertised number and ask what the rate includes.
Check:
Whether the unit is climate-controlled or standard
Whether it is drive-up, indoor, or elevator-access
Whether a promotion expires after a set period
What fees or coverage requirements apply
Whether the lease is month to month
How often you expect to visit the unit
For comparison, the broader Salt Lake City metro area gives renters several nearby communities to consider. A lower listed rate outside Murray may still be less convenient if it adds drive time during a move, remodel, or apartment transition.
A 10x10 unit gives you 100 square feet of floor space. The price changes when the unit setup changes.
Climate-controlled storage may cost more than standard storage because it offers a more moderated environment. It can help reduce exposure to temperature changes, which may be useful for furniture, electronics, documents, business records, boxed household goods, and seasonal items.
Drive-up access may also affect price because it can make loading easier. Indoor or elevator-access units may fit better when climate control matters more than pull-up convenience.
Promotions can create another price gap. A low move-in rate may be useful, but confirm how long it lasts, what the regular rate may be afterward, and whether any added fees apply.
A 10x10 can work well for many mid-size storage needs, especially when items are boxed and organized. It may fit furniture, boxes, small appliances, seasonal items, business records, office supplies, or household overflow.
It is not automatically the right size for every two-bedroom move. Large sectionals, oversized mattresses, appliances, shelving, and bulky furniture can change the amount of space needed. If you plan to access items while they are stored, leave room for an aisle instead of packing the unit wall to wall.
Murray has a mix of apartment living, medical employment, local moves, and established neighborhoods, which makes mid-size storage useful for several common situations.
Developments like the Artesian Springs complex and the upcoming Murray Tower Plaza are adding hundreds of compact studios and one- to two-bedroom apartments along the State Street corridor. For apartment residents, a 10x10 can help with furniture, boxes, seasonal gear, and belongings that do not fit neatly into closets.
The Intermountain Medical Center employs over 6,000 caregivers on its Murray campus and regularly welcomes travel nurses, medical residents, and visiting physicians. For relocating professionals or short-term workers, storage can help bridge the gap between leases, temporary housing, and move-in dates.
A 10x10 can also help homeowners during remodeling, staging, downsizing, or local moves. For small businesses, it may work for records, supplies, boxed inventory, displays, or seasonal materials, as long as the items follow facility rules.
A 10x10 is useful, but it is not always the best value. A smaller unit may be enough for boxes, documents, or compact apartment overflow. A larger unit may be easier to organize if you have bulky furniture, business equipment, or multi-room storage.
SecureSpace Self Storage Murray offers unit sizes including 5x5, 5x10, 10x10, 10x15, 10x20, and 10x25, depending on current availability.
Before renting, make a quick item list. If most of the load is boxed, a 10x10 may be efficient. If you have oversized furniture or need frequent access, a larger unit may prevent frustrating restacking later.

Use those details to judge whether a unit fits the way you plan to move, load, and access your belongings. A slightly different unit type can matter more than a small difference in the listed monthly rate.
Prices vary by facility, unit type, availability, rental terms, and current promotions. Check the current rate directly and ask whether the price changes after any introductory period.
It may be, depending on furniture size, box count, appliances, and packing style. Measure larger items first and leave access space if you will need to retrieve belongings.
It depends on what you are storing. Climate-controlled storage can help reduce exposure to temperature changes compared with non-climate-controlled storage, which may be useful for furniture, electronics, documents, business records, and boxed household goods.
Sometimes. If you rarely visit the unit, a farther location may work. If you are moving, rotating items, or making repeated trips, local convenience may be worth factoring into the total cost.
A 10x10 storage unit can be a practical middle-ground size, but the best choice depends on more than the lowest advertised rate. Think through what you are storing, how often you will visit, whether climate control matters, and what the rate becomes after any promotion.
