Why Torrance Apartment Residents Choose Box-n-Go Storage

Look, apartment living in Torrance comes with trade-offs. You’re close to the beach, near great restaurants on Carson St, and probably paying less than homeowners. But storage space? That’s where things get tight.

We’ve worked with renters in Torrance for nearly two decades. We understand you don’t want to spend your Saturday wrestling a couch into a U-Haul, driving to some storage facility in Gardena, then unloading everything again. That’s three times you’re moving your stuff (and probably three times you’re hurting your back).

Our portable storage approach is simple: we deliver, you load once, we store. Ground-level access. No stairs, no elevators, no stress.

Our Apartment Storage Process

Step 1: We Deliver to Your Apartment
We bring a weather-resistant portable storage unit to your apartment’s parking lot or loading area in Torrance. Most complexes have designated spaces—we’ve worked with property managers at hundreds of buildings across the South Bay.

Step 2: Load at Your Own Pace
Take your time. Load during evenings after work, on weekends, whenever works for your schedule. No facility hours to worry about, no gate closing at 6 PM.

Step 3: We Pick Up and Store
When you’re ready, we pick up your loaded unit and transport it to our secure Torrance facility. Climate-controlled options available. 24/7 monitoring, controlled access.

Step 4: We Deliver When You Need It
Moving to a new apartment? We’ll deliver your stuff to your new Torrance address. Need something from storage? We’ll bring your unit back or you can visit our facility during business hours.


Storage Unit Sizes for Torrance Apartments

8′ Portable Storage Unit – Perfect for Studio and 1-Bedroom Apartments

This is our most popular size for Torrance apartment renters. If you’re in a studio near El Camino College or a one-bedroom in Old Torrance, this unit handles your overflow storage without breaking the bank.

What fits in an 8′ unit:

  • 1 to 1.5 rooms of furniture
  • Bedroom set (queen bed frame, dresser, nightstand)
  • 20-30 medium moving boxes
  • Seasonal items (winter clothes, holiday decorations)
  • Sports equipment (bikes, surfboards, golf clubs from Sea-Aire)
  • Patio furniture from your balcony

Think of it this way—if you’ve got a closet’s worth of seasonal stuff, a few pieces of furniture you’re not using, and boxes of things you’re not ready to part with, the 8′ unit works beautifully.

Common Apartment Storage Scenarios We Handle in Torrance

Downsizing to a Smaller Apartment

Rent’s going up. Maybe you’re moving from a two-bedroom near Del Amo Fashion Center to a one-bedroom in Harbor Gateway. You don’t want to get rid of your furniture, but it won’t all fit.

We store your extra furniture, boxes of belongings, and anything else that doesn’t make the cut. When you move again (and you probably will—that’s apartment life), we’ll deliver everything to your new place.

Staging Your Apartment for Move-Out

Property managers in Torrance want apartments to show well. That means your place needs to look spacious, clean, and depersonalized for showings.

Here’s what we’ve learned after working with hundreds of Torrance renters: decluttering your apartment before your final walkthrough can mean the difference between getting your full security deposit back or losing hundreds of dollars.

Store your extra furniture, personal items, and anything that makes rooms look cramped. When you’ve got your deposit check in hand, we’ll bring your stuff to your new apartment.

Between Apartments – Temporary Storage

Lease ends May 31st, but your new apartment isn’t available until June 15th? We’ve all been there. And honestly, staying with family for two weeks sounds fine until you’re sleeping on your cousin’s couch.

We’ll store everything from your Torrance apartment, give you breathing room during the transition, then deliver to your new place when you’re ready. No need to move things twice or pay for overlapping rent.

Student Storage for El Camino College Students

Summer break storage shouldn’t be complicated. We deliver to your apartment near El Camino before finals week, you load your stuff (futon, mini fridge, textbooks, clothes), and we store it all summer.

Come August, we’ll deliver everything to your new apartment or dorm. Beats hauling it all home to San Diego or the Bay Area, then bringing it back three months later.

Student storage specials available – call for summer rates: 877-269-6461

Decluttering While You Live There

Sometimes you just need space. Your apartment isn’t getting any bigger, but your stuff keeps accumulating.

Store seasonal items (winter coats in summer, beach gear in winter), duplicate furniture from when you moved in with your partner, hobby equipment you use occasionally, or anything else that’s valuable but taking up daily space.

Keep your apartment feeling spacious without giving up the things you actually need. You can access your stored items anytime at our Torrance facility or schedule a delivery.

Renovation Storage

Not common in apartments, but if your Torrance landlord is remodeling your unit or the building, you might need temporary storage to protect your furniture and belongings during construction.

We’ve worked with property management companies across Torrance during building upgrades. We’ll keep your stuff safe and clean while work happens, then return everything when it’s done.


Box-n-Go vs. Traditional Storage Facilities for Torrance Apartments

Let me be clear about something: traditional storage facilities aren’t bad. Public Storage, Extra Space Storage—they’ve been around forever for a reason.

But for apartment renters in Torrance? Our portable storage approach just makes more sense. Here’s why:

The Three-Move Problem

With traditional facilities, you’re moving your stuff three separate times:

  1. Load it into a rental truck at your apartment
  2. Drive to the facility (probably in Gardena or Carson)
  3. Unload everything into your storage unit

That’s three times you’re lifting your couch. Three times your friend who “doesn’t mind helping” is secretly regretting saying yes.

With Box-n-Go: We deliver to your apartment. You load once. Done.

The Truck Rental Hassle

U-Haul costs money. You’ve got to pick it up, return it with a full tank, and hope nothing goes wrong with the vehicle. Plus, good luck finding parking for a truck at most Torrance apartment complexes.

With Box-n-Go: We handle all transportation. Our trucks, our insurance, our problem if something goes wrong.

Access and Convenience

Traditional storage means driving to the facility every time you need something. Their hours are their hours. If you’re working late and realize you need something from storage, you’re out of luck until tomorrow.

With Box-n-Go: Schedule access at our Torrance facility, or we can deliver your entire unit back to your apartment. Much more flexible.

 

Hidden Costs

Storage facilities love add-on fees. Insurance, locks, administration fees, rate increases after promotional periods.

With Box-n-Go: Transparent pricing. We tell you exactly what it costs upfront. Month-to-month contracts. No surprises.

FeatureBox-n-Go Portable StorageTraditional Storage Facilities

What to Expect: Storage Costs for Torrance Apartments

Let’s talk money. Because that’s what you actually want to know, right?

Storage unit costs in Torrance vary based on size and how long you need it. Here’s what’s realistic:

8′ Portable Unit: Typically ranges from $150-220/month depending on season and availability
16′ Portable Unit: Generally $250-400/month for Torrance deliveries
20′ XL Container: Around $400-550/month for full apartment storage

That pricing includes:

  • Delivery to your Torrance apartment
  • Pickup and transport to our secure facility
  • Storage at our Vermont Ave location
  • Basic protection for your belongings

Not included: Packing supplies (we sell boxes and materials), professional loading help (available for an additional fee), or insurance beyond basic coverage.

Pro tip: Rates fluctuate based on demand. Summer months (May-August) tend to be busier with students and movers. Winter months sometimes offer better pricing. Call for current rates specific to your Torrance address.

Serving Every Torrance Apartment Neighborhood

We deliver portable storage units throughout Torrance and the surrounding South Bay. Here’s where we regularly help apartment residents:

Old Torrance Apartments

The historic downtown area has some of Torrance’s oldest apartment buildings—lots of character, but often limited storage space. We’ve delivered to complexes along Sartori Ave, Cabrillo Ave, and throughout the Craftsman district.

North Torrance Apartment Complexes

Near Torrance Memorial Medical Center and the shops on Hawthorne Blvd, North Torrance has newer apartment communities with better amenities but the same storage challenges. We work with complexes from Sepulveda Blvd to Crenshaw Blvd.

Walteria Neighborhood Apartments

Close to the beach, quieter than some Torrance neighborhoods, but parking and storage can be tight. We deliver to apartments along Pacific Coast Highway and the streets running toward Torrance Beach.

South Torrance Near Del Amo

High-density apartment living near Del Amo Fashion Center means convenience and walkability, but storage space is at a premium. We’ve worked with buildings on Carson St, Sepulveda, and throughout this busy commercial area.

Harbor Gateway Apartments

Technically part of LA but closely connected to Torrance, Harbor Gateway apartments often have the tightest storage situations. We deliver throughout this corridor from Carson to Sepulveda.

Apartments Near El Camino College

Student housing, young professionals, and starter apartments dominate this area. We do tons of summer storage for students and help young renters declutter small units.

We also serve nearby: Redondo Beach apartments, Gardena complexes, Carson residences, and Lomita rentals.

How to Prepare Your Torrance Apartment for Storage

You’ve booked your portable storage unit. Now what? Here’s what we tell every Torrance renter:

Check with Your Property Manager First

Most apartment complexes in Torrance allow portable storage units in their parking lots or loading areas for short periods (usually 72 hours to a week). Some require written permission.

Call your property manager ahead of time. Explain that Box-n-Go will deliver a storage container, you’ll load it over 2-3 days, then we’ll pick it up. Most say yes—we’ve worked with hundreds of Torrance apartment complexes.

If your building won’t allow it on-site, we can coordinate a nearby street delivery (checking city parking regulations first).

Sort Before We Deliver

Don’t pay to store things you don’t need. Before we deliver your unit to your Torrance apartment:

  • Donate or sell furniture you don’t use. That extra chair you’ve been meaning to list on Facebook Marketplace? Now’s the time.
  • Trash obvious garbage. Broken items, expired products, things you haven’t touched in three years.
  • Digitize documents. Old bills, papers, and photos take up box space. Scan what you can.

One client in Southwood told us she reduced her storage needs from a 16′ to an 8′ unit just by spending two weekends decluttering first. Saved herself $100+/month.

Gather Packing Supplies

You’ll need:

  • Moving boxes (small for books, medium for most items, large for lightweight stuff like bedding)
  • Packing tape (the good stuff—cheap tape fails)
  • Bubble wrap or packing paper for fragile items
  • Furniture covers or old sheets to protect upholstery
  • Labels and markers

We sell all of this. Call when you book your storage unit, and we’ll deliver supplies with the container.

Pack Strategically for Storage

Heavy items on the bottom, light on top. Seems obvious, but you’d be surprised how many people stack boxes wrong then wonder why things broke.

Leave walkways. If you think you might need to access something, pack with a narrow aisle down the middle of your unit.

Fragile items away from walls. When we transport your unit, there’s minimal movement, but buffer breakables with soft items anyway.

Label everything clearly. “Kitchen stuff” isn’t helpful six months from now. “Kitchen—pots/pans/dishes” is better.

Furniture Protection

Wrap mattresses and upholstered furniture. Disassemble bed frames if possible (takes up less space). Remove legs from tables if easy to do.

Don’t store anything that’ll attract pests. No food (even canned goods can leak), no plants, no scented candles that’ll melt in summer.

What NOT to Store

By law and common sense, don’t store:

  • Hazardous materials (paint, chemicals, gasoline)
  • Perishable food
  • Anything alive (pets, plants)
  • Irreplaceable valuables (store these at your new apartment or a safe deposit box)
  • Items prohibited in your rental agreement

Frequently Asked Questions: Apartment Storage in Torrance, CA

How much does apartment storage cost in Torrance?

For Torrance apartments, expect to pay $150-220/month for an 8′ portable unit (good for studio or 1-bedroom), $250-400/month for a 16′ unit (2-3 bedrooms worth), or $400-550/month for a 20′ XL container (full apartment). Pricing includes delivery to your apartment, pickup, and storage at our secure Torrance facility.

Traditional storage facilities might advertise lower rates, but once you add truck rental ($75-150), gas, and your time, portable storage often costs the same or less.

Can I keep the storage unit at my apartment complex?

Most Torrance apartment complexes allow portable storage units in parking areas for 2-7 days. Some require written permission from property management first.

We coordinate with hundreds of apartment buildings across Torrance. We’ll work with your property manager to find an acceptable loading schedule. If on-site parking isn’t allowed, we can arrange street delivery (following city regulations).

Once you’re done loading, we pick up the unit and store it at our secure Torrance facility. You won’t have a container sitting in your parking lot long-term.

How long does it take to load a storage unit?

Most Torrance apartment renters take 1-3 days to load their unit. You’ve got flexibility—load after work during evenings, knock it out over a weekend, take your time if needed.

We don’t charge extra if you need a few extra days for loading. Just coordinate with your apartment complex about how long the unit can remain on-site.

Pro tip from our team: Gather all your boxes and packing materials before we deliver. Once the unit arrives, you can load efficiently rather than scrambling to find supplies.

Do I need to rent a truck for apartment storage?

Nope. That’s the entire point of portable storage.

With traditional storage facilities, you rent a truck, load your stuff at your apartment, drive to the facility, and unload. Then do it in reverse when you need your stuff back.

With Box-n-Go: We deliver the storage unit to your Torrance apartment’s parking lot or loading area. You load once at ground level. When you’re done, we pick it up. No truck rental, no fuel costs, no driving across town with your furniture bouncing around.

Can I access my stored items after you pick up the unit?

Yes. You have two options:

Option 1: Visit our Torrance facility at 22107 S Vermont Ave during business hours. We’ll give you access to your specific unit so you can retrieve items or add more.

Option 2: Schedule a delivery back to your apartment. This costs extra, but if you need multiple items or want to reorganize, it’s often worth it.

Most Torrance apartment customers visit the facility if they just need one or two things. If they’re fully moving out or need major access, they schedule a delivery.

Call to schedule facility access or redelivery – 877-269-6461

What size storage unit does my apartment need?

Studio or 1-bedroom apartment: Our 8′ portable unit usually works perfectly. It holds bedroom furniture, 20-30 boxes, and your overflow items.

2-bedroom apartment: The 16′ unit is most popular. You can fit living room furniture, dining set, bedroom furniture, and 50-60 boxes.

3-bedroom apartment: Consider our 20′ XL container, especially if you’re storing everything during a move.

Still not sure? Call us at 877-269-6461. Describe what you’re storing, and we’ll recommend the right size for your Torrance apartment. We’d rather you rent the correct size than pay for space you don’t need.

Is my stuff safe in storage?

Our Torrance facility at 22107 S Vermont Ave features:

  • 24/7 video monitoring
  • Controlled access gates
  • Well-lit, fenced perimeter
  • Individual locks on each storage unit
  • Regular security patrols

Your portable storage unit is weather-resistant and sits on-site at our facility. Unlike traditional storage with shared hallways where strangers walk past your unit, your container is yours alone.

Insurance: We offer basic protection, but we recommend adding storage insurance for high-value items. Many renters’ insurance policies cover items in storage—check your policy.

How quickly can you deliver to my Torrance apartment?

Usually same-day or next-day for most Torrance neighborhoods. We keep units at our Vermont Ave facility ready for delivery.

Delivery times depend on:

  • Current demand (summer is busier)
  • Your apartment’s location
  • Your building’s access requirements
  • Unit size availability

Best practice: Call us as soon as you know you need storage. We’ll lock in your delivery date and give you time to prepare.

Check today’s delivery availability – 877-269-6461

Do you require a long-term contract for apartment storage?

No. We offer month-to-month storage with no long-term commitment.

Many Torrance apartment renters need storage temporarily—between leases, during a remodel, for summer break if they’re students. We don’t lock you into 6-month or 1-year contracts like some traditional facilities.

Cancel anytime with reasonable notice. No penalties, no hassle.

Can you help me load my storage unit?

Yes. We partner with professional movers who can help load your unit at your Torrance apartment.

Loading services include:

  • Packing boxes
  • Wrapping furniture
  • Loading the unit efficiently to maximize space
  • Heavy lifting (refrigerators, couches, dressers)

This costs extra beyond the storage unit rental, but many Torrance renters use this service when they’re short on time or dealing with heavy furniture alone.

What items can’t I store in my unit?

Not allowed:

  • Hazardous materials (paint, chemicals, propane, gasoline)
  • Perishable food or items that attract pests
  • Anything illegal
  • Firearms or ammunition
  • Living things (plants, pets—obviously)

Use caution with:

  • Important documents (keep originals elsewhere or in fireproof box)
  • Irreplaceable items (family heirlooms, expensive jewelry)
  • Electronics sensitive to temperature changes

Everything else? Furniture, clothes, boxes of belongings, sporting equipment, seasonal items—all good.

Will my furniture get damaged in storage?

Not if you pack correctly. Here’s what we recommend for Torrance apartment renters:

Furniture: Wrap upholstered items in furniture covers or old sheets. Disassemble legs from tables if possible. Stand mattresses on edge rather than laying flat.

Boxes: Don’t overpack—25-30 lbs max per box. Stack heavy boxes on bottom, light boxes on top.

Electronics: Wrap in bubble wrap and label “fragile.” Consider original packaging if you kept it.

Our portable units are weather-resistant and sit securely at our monitored Torrance facility. The main cause of damage is improper packing, not the storage itself.
