Self-storage firm SecureSpace explains the role of 5x10-feet storage units in a new guide

Jan 15, 2024

SecureSpace has released a new manual giving customers more intuition on the size of 5x10 storage units and what they can use them for.

Redondo Beach, California, United States - January 15, 2024 —

SecureSpace has released a guide that breaks down the actual size of a 5x10 storage unit. The aim is to reassure people that even small, cost-effective units are useful, particularly for those with minimal storage requirements.

“We want to communicate the idea that 5x10 units are perfect for storing furniture, seasonal items, and other household goods,” SecureSpace says. “That’s why we’ve compiled some answers to some of our customers’ most burning questions in this article so they can learn more about this highly affordable form of storage.”

While 5x10 might sound bijou, SecureSpace is keen to point out that it is still 50 square feet. “That’s about the same size as the average walk-in closet size. However, our units have more than eight feet of headroom, meaning that customers can store items vertically, too.”

SecureSpace says it can help customers who aren’t sure what size unit to choose. Friendly staff are available on-site to answer questions and recommend specific rentals.

Customers can also take an inventory of all the furniture, appliances, and household items they will put into storage to get a better sense of what might fit. “If customers are worried they won’t be able to fit all their possessions into a 5x10 storage unit, we offer other options,” the company says. “Packing an entire house’s worth of belongings into fifty square feet can be challenging, but it’s doable with our 10x10 and 20x10 units. In fact, you can fit cars and RVs in the latter.”

Individuals who want to know what a 5x10 storage unit looks like should familiarize themselves with SecureSpace’s guide. It contains numerous pictures that provide a sense of scale and indicate what might fit in one of these units. Details are also available on the kinds of household and business items that can fit inside. The company claims units are large enough for pianos, high chairs, paddle boards, fishing poles, canoes, filing cabinets, desks, lawnmowers, and some ATVs.

“While 5x10 units might be smaller spaces, they are still viable options for businesses wanting to store records, documents, and paperwork,” the brand says. “They give people the flexibility they need to reduce clutter. Even king-size beds will fit inside these units, which is great news for anyone moving house.”

Delos Santos claims bronze in Asian Games debut

YOUNG blood Albert Ian Delos Santos made a grand entrance in his Asian Games debut, setting new junior World and Asian records to capture the bronze medal in the men’s 70-kilogram weightlifting event at the Nagoya City Trade and Industry Centre in Japan. As the youngest competitor in the nine-man field, the promising weightlifter lifted a total of 324 kg—154 kg in the snatch and 183 kg in the clean and jerk—to secure his spot on the podium. Serving as Team Philippines’ flag-bearer, Delos Santos eclipsed his previous junior mark of 321 kg (141 kg snatch, 180 kg clean and jerk), which he set at the Asian Youth & Junior Championships in August. While Delos Santos previously recorded a total lift of 326 kg in the 71 kg class at the IWF World Championships, the International Weightlifting Federation restructured its bodyweight categories in 2026, establishing 70 kg and 71 kg as separate divisions. Coming from a proud lineage of weightlifters—his late father Alvin was a former Southeast Asian Games gold medalist and coach, and his mother Diwa was a former national lifter—an emotional Delos Santos held up a photo of his father following his victory. North Korea’s Won Ju Ri claimed the gold medal with a total lift of 349 kg (151 kg snatch, 198 kg clean and jerk), while Japan’s Masanori Miyamoto took silver with 342 kg (154 kg snatch, 188 kg clean and jerk). Meanwhile, Japan’s 11-year-old eSports prodigy Yuki Kurihara won Asian Games gold on Saturday in style after thrashing a series of opponents up to three times his age. The bespectacled primary school student, believed to be the youngest competitor at the Games in Aichi-Nagoya, won the Puyo Puyo Champions final 10-2. He is host country Japan’s youngest athlete in Asian Games history. Puyo Puyo Champions is a puzzle game where players try to clear their screen of coloured blobs by lining them up and popping them. Look unruffled throughout, Kurihara waltzed into the gold-medal match with a series of dazzling displays. He crushed Thailand’s Tanarak Wongkitkun -- a relative veteran at 28 -- 10-1 in the semi-finals to ensure at least a silver medal.

Underdog Alas faces tough South Korea

THE Alas Pilipinas men’s national volleyball team faces a steep uphill battle as it opens its 2026 Asian Games campaign against a formidable South Korean squad on Sunday at the Park Arena Komaki in Komaki, Aichi Prefecture, Japan. The game is set at 12 noon (Manila time). Slated in Pool D alongside South Korea, China and Taiwan, Alas Pilipinas must secure at least two victories to finish among the top two in the pool and advance to the quarterfinals. Currently ranked 114th in the world, the underdog Philippine team will need Italian head coach Angiolino Frigoni to work his tactical magic against higher-ranked opponents—South Korea (25th), China (34th), and Taiwan (55th). Nevertheless, Alas aims to defy the odds by drawing confidence from its historic FIVB World Championship victory over then-World No. 21 Egypt. To mount its campaign, the national squad has retained its full FIVB World Championship roster. Heavy hitters Bryan Bagunas and Marck Espejo lead the outside hitters alongside Buds Buddin and Jude Garcia, while Leo Ordiales and John Lirck Mendoza anchor the opposite position. Middle blockers Lloyd Josafat, Peng Taguibolos, and Joshua Magalaman, together with libero Josh Ybañez, round out the defensive and net efforts. Adding a crucial boost to the lineup, star playmaker Owa Retamar arrived in Japan following a long-haul flight from Poland, where his club team, Ordu, released him from training camp to answer the national call. Retamar expressed deep gratitude for the opportunity to represent the country across the SEA Games, World Championship, and now the Asian Games, emphasizing that playing for the national team goes beyond contracts and obligations as the team unites to focus on supporting each other. “This goes beyond contracts or obligations. When the country calls, you play for something bigger than yourself. I’m grateful to Ordu for allowing me to represent the Philippines, and after the Asian Games, I will return with the same commitment to fulfill my responsibilities to the club,” Retamar said. The setter made sure to not waste any chance to represent the Philippines. “This is for the young Owa who had all of these on his bucket list—to play in the SEA Games, the World Championship, and now the Asian Games. Playing with the Philippine team will always be a mix of excitement and challenge. Let’s set aside the noise and focus on supporting each other and playing as one team.”
