About the shop
Sawco Self Storage is on Carrollton Boulevard in Carrollton, between Smithfield and the James River Bridge. Storage is a simple product with a few details that matter enormously: whether the unit stays dry, whether the site is secure, and whether you can get to your own things at a reasonable hour.
Humidity is the thing people underestimate here. Coastal Virginia air will find its way into a poorly sealed unit and go to work on furniture, documents, electronics and anything upholstered. What you are storing determines whether that matters, and it is worth a conversation before you sign for a unit rather than after.
What we do
- Self-storage units
- A range of sizes, from the small unit that holds a room's worth of boxes to space for the contents of a whole house.
- Month-to-month rental
- Storage need rarely arrives with a known end date. Rental that does not lock you into a term you may not need.
- Household storage
- The between-houses months, the downsizing, the estate that has to go somewhere while the family works out what happens next.
- Business storage
- Stock, records, seasonal equipment and tools that do not fit in the shop any more.
- Vehicle and boat parking
- Call to ask about outdoor space — availability and sizes vary.
- Advice on what you are storing
- What survives a coastal Virginia summer in an unconditioned unit and what does not. Worth asking before you load.
How it works
Work out the size
Call and describe what you are storing. Renting a unit that is too small costs you a second move; too large and you are paying for air.
See it and take it
Look at the actual unit, check the access and the security, and sign for the month.
Move in
Load it properly — pallets or boards underneath, gaps for air, and heavy things at the bottom.

Questions people ask
What size unit do I need?
Call and describe what you are storing, roughly in rooms or in furniture. It is a quick conversation and it saves an expensive mistake in either direction.
Will my things stay dry?
Ask about the specific unit and about climate control options. In this climate it is the single most important question, particularly for upholstery, paper and electronics.
How long do I have to rent for?
Ask about month-to-month terms when you call.
When can I get to my unit?
Call to ask about access hours — it is worth confirming before you rent if you need evening or weekend access.
Do you have space for a boat or trailer?
Call and ask. Outdoor and vehicle space depends on what is available at the time.
