At EZ Self Storage Morwell, our storage options include secure 10ft, 20ft and 40ft containers, plus open-air caravan, car, boat and trailer storage.
Ever wondered why self-storage facilities are so popular?
We all know it’s all about space!
And who couldn’t do with a little (or a lot) more space?
But what are the circumstances that create this need?
We’ve put together a few scenarios that may help explain why the need for additional
space arises in people’s everyday lives.
Selling your house: Often when selling, we find ourselves preparing the house for viewing and needing to store items that just “don’t fit”. Or maybe we need to vacate the premises whilst we go through the settlement process? Utilising temporary storage during this period is a no-brainer and takes the pressure off during this stressful period.
Downsizing: It’s something we all go through at some point in our lives. The problem is, what to do with those belongings we just can’t bear to part with? Or possibly, we just don’t have enough time to sort through everything. Moving items into temporary storage will certainly buy the time you need!
Relocating: Moving from one location to another can be a pain, especially if the timing is off! Storage allows a “transitional” space where we can store belongings and transfer them when we’re ready. Too EZ!
Moving in together: It’s common for a couple to make the big decision to move in together, and it’s also not unheard of for an elderly parent to move in with their son or daughter. Either way, these decisions usually come with a lot of excess gear. Long term or short, storage is ideal for managing this transition.
Home renovations: What a nightmare! If you’re planning on doing some DIY or any type of reno project, do yourself a favour and clear the space before you start work. Our storage facilities can easily fit the contents of an average sized room (even more!).
Storing loved one’s belongings: The loss of a loved one is extremely difficult. Added to this stressful time is often the need to vacate a property, deal with accumulated possessions (which is usually a lot!), and all within short time constraints. Using storage as a temporary or long-term solution can greatly reduce this stress, giving everyone a little more time and space throughout the grieving process.
Cars, motorbikes, boats and anything in between: are found in storage facilities around the country. The reason? People often don’t have enough driveway space, garage space or a decent enough holding area that protects the asset from theft or the elements. Whatever the reason, our storage containers tick all the safety, security and affordability boxes our clients need!
Equipment: So, you’re in between projects, have little space left in the yard, and you’re wondering, “where do I keep this expensive piece of machinery or equipment when it's not in use”? With the added security, safety from the elements, and huge amounts of room, short or long term storage rental is a great fit!
Stock: Businesses often have to contend with excess stock taking up valuable real estate in either an office, or worse, a house! Sometimes it’s seasonal stock (like Christmas materials) that causes a business’s space problem. Either way, storage provides a secure, protected, easily accessible solution for a business’s stock control problem.
Document Archiving: As much as the digital age is upon us, anyone who has run a business will tell you that there is no avoiding the huge amounts of paperwork a business generates. And the worst part, you still need to keep these documents for a specified period of time. The simple solution to decluttering your office and/or home from these documents is to put them into secure and safe storage. Problem solved!
Our compact 10ft containers provide approximately 15.9m3 of secure storage space in a smaller footprint than our larger container options. They are a practical choice when you have outgrown a garden shed, spare room or garage but do not need the capacity of a full 20ft container.
Built from strong, weather-resistant steel, the 10ft option is well suited to general household and business storage, including furniture, appliances, tools, moving boxes, archived documents, seasonal items and smaller quantities of business stock.
Dimensions
Need to know if our 10ft container is the right fit for your needs?
The approximate internal dimensions are:
Internal length: 2.83m / 9.3ft
Internal width: 2.35m / 7.7ft
Internal height: 2.39m / 7.8ft
Usable capacity: approximately 15.9m3 / 561 cu ft
Exact measurements can vary slightly between individual containers. Please contact us if you need to confirm that a particular item will fit.
Capacity
With approximately 15.9m3 of internal volume, a 10ft container is a practical choice for smaller storage loads. It gives you useful room for household belongings or business items without stepping up to one of our larger containers.
Depending on the size of your belongings and how they are packed, a 10ft container can be suitable for a combination of items such as:
These are practical examples rather than a guaranteed packing list, as furniture sizes and packing arrangements vary.
Built from 14-gauge Corten steel, with 33m3 of space, our 20ft containers are ideal for storing anything from household items, appliances, excess business stock, vehicles, and even equipment and machinery.
Dimensions
Need to know if our 20ft container is the right fit for your needs?
Here’s some specific dimensions to help answer the question:
Internal length: 5.9m / 19.4ft
Internal width: 2.35m / 7.8ft
Internal height: 2.39m / 7.9ft
Tare weight: 2,300kg / 5,071.5lbs
Payload capacity: 25,000kg / 55,126.9lbs
Usable capacity: 33.2m3 / 1,172 cu ft
Capacity
To get the most realistic capacity metric you will need to measure in terms of tare weight, payload and cubic capacity. This will give you the best idea of how much you can fit into the container and if it's the right fit for your needs.
Generally speaking, you can fit the entire household contents of a one to
two-bedroom apartment into one of our 20ft containers.
Here’s a Fun Fact from the web…. You can also fit into a 20ft container:
400 flat-screen TVs
200 full-sized mattresses
50-60 refrigerators
48,000 bananas
As with all our containers, our 40ft high-cubes are built from 14-gauge Corten steel
and strong enough to hold over 29 tons (or more than 28,000kg).
They have approximately 76m3 of space and are ideal for holding anything from
general household items to larger machinery and equipment (including cars).
Dimensions
Need to know if our 40ft (HC) container is the right fit for your needs?
Here’s some specific dimensions to help answer the question:
Internal length: 12.03m / 39.5ft
Internal width: 2.35m / 7.8ft
Internal height (high-cube): 2.67m / 8.9ft (1ft higher than standard)
Tare weight: 3,940kg / 8,687lbs
Payload capacity: 28,600kg / 63,052lbs
Usable capacity: 76.3m3 / 2,694.5cu ft
Capacity
When thinking about capacity of the 40ft high-cube, it’s important to focus on the internal dimensions as this is what’s going to matter when calculating the amount of storage it can hold. Another important factor in the High Cube's capacity is its additional height compared with a standard-height container. This will obviously only become important if height plays a factor in your storage needs.
Generally speaking, you can fit the entire household contents of a three- to four-bedroom
family home into one of our 40ft High Cube containers.
Or if you want an even better understanding, you can generally fit:
25 stacked pallets (Euro pallets 1.2m x 0.8m)
3 - 4 standard-sized cars
610 standard package boxes
152 bicycles, or
400 full-sized mattresses
Your caravan is built for weekends away and longer trips, not for permanently occupying valuable space at home. When it is not on the road, dedicated off-site storage can free up your driveway, garage or yard and remove the day-to-day hassle of manoeuvring a large caravan around other vehicles.
EZ Self Storage provides dedicated open-air caravan storage in Morwell, with bay options of approximately 3.2m x 6.5m or 3.2m x 9m. Our facility uses personalised PIN-controlled gate access and is monitored by 32 CCTV cameras around the clock, giving your caravan a dedicated place to stay between trips.
Practical storage between trips
Open-air caravan storage is a straightforward, cost-effective option for customers who want a dedicated place to keep their caravan while retaining regular access when it is time to head away. Storage access at EZ Self Storage is available from 5am-10pm, 7 days a week.
Caravan sizes vary significantly, so please consider the complete storage footprint when choosing a bay. Include the drawbar, rear-mounted accessories and any overhangs in your measurements. If you are unsure which bay is suitable, contact us before booking and we can help confirm the best fit.
Cars, boats and trailers can take up a surprising amount of driveway, garage or yard space when they are not in regular use. Our dedicated open-air storage bays provide a practical off-site option in Morwell for customers who want to reclaim space at home without leaving a vehicle or trailer parked on the street.
Bay options are approximately 3.2m x 6.5m or 3.2m x 9m. The facility uses personalised PIN-controlled gate access and 32 CCTV cameras monitoring the site around the clock, with storage access available from 5am-10pm, 7 days a week.
Designed for cars, boats and trailers
Our open-air bays are intended primarily for:
For boats and trailers, measure the full storage footprint from the front of the drawbar to the rearmost point, including the motor and any overhangs. For cars, measure bumper-to-bumper. This total length helps us match your item to a suitable bay; final bay allocation depends on availability and fit.
Here's a short list of some of the questions we get asked most frequently. If for any reason you cannot find the answer you are looking for, then please feel free to contact us, and we will help you out.
Shipping containers are designed to make long voyages across the open seas of the world. This means they need to be made tough. In fact, our containers are made from 14-gauge Corten steel, meaning these containers are like an impenetrable fortress to thieves, mice, rats and other vermin, as well as the seasonal elements.
What better way to keep your valuables protected!
Our currently published storage options include:
10ft Standard Container with approximately 15.9 cubic metres of usable space and approximate internal dimensions of (L) 2.83m (W) 2.35m (H) 2.39m.

Assuming that you have followed our guidelines, then the short answer is YES!
Unlike traditional storage sheds, our containers are built to
withstand the harshest of conditions, they are vermin resistant,
insect resistant, and resistant to weather elements, such as water and dust.
Mice, rats, insects, and the weather cannot penetrate steel,
and the containers' double-gasketed doors form an extremely tight seal to ensure no nasties get in!
In saying this, nothing is absolutely fool-proof, and shipping
containers are still somewhat susceptible to the forming of
condensation when the right circumstances exist. To ensure that your
items are completely protected, you should check out our FAQs section
on "how do I properly protect my items".
Due to their formidable steel construction and design, our containers are also extremely difficult to break into. Thieves know that without the aid of heavy and cumbersome power tools, their chances of getting in would be very minimal (if not completely impossible). Not to mention that our premises are surrounded by security fencing and covered with monitored CCTV cameras.
Please note: EZ Self Storage provides a clean and vermin/insect free container, designed to keep pests out. This does not exclude the opportunity for these pests to be in your possessions when you place them inside the container. It is therefore strongly recommended that you thoroughly inspect your items prior to stowing them away. This will ensure those creepy crawlies aren't trapped inside and making cosy nests in your belongings.
As mentioned above, when it comes to the protection of your valuables,
our shipping containers are far superior to that of traditional storage
sheds.
But like anything in life, shipping containers are not without their vulnerabilities!
Because shipping containers are constructed using high-grade steel,
they can also be susceptible to temperature fluctuations and changes
in humidity when the correct circumstances exist. This may contribute
to the build-up of condensation within the unit.
Although we have taken additional precautions to prevent this situation
from occurring, such as the installation of pre-installed ventilation,
the risk is still unavoidable!
To help protect your items and to minimise the threat posed by
condensation build-up, we strongly recommend you take the following
actions when storing your items:
1. Attend to your container regularly
(at least once a month) to open the doors and allow air to circulate.
This will greatly reduce the risk of condensation build-up.
2. Add additional protection to your more susceptible items.
This can be achieved by wrapping these items in moisture-resistant
packaging.
3. Reach out for help.
Just remember that we are more than happy to assist in any way!
If you feel there may be an issue arising from condensation build-up,
just let us know as soon as you can, and we can assist you to rectify
the issue.
To put it simply, if you can fit it, you can store it!
EZ Self Storage doesn’t monitor or check what goes into your container, that is completely up to you. In saying this, it is obviously illegal to store any items and/or substances that are considered to be restricted, or illegal by law. Any person found storing such items or substances may be prosecuted for doing so, and EZ Self Storage takes no responsibility for such decisions.
Other than that, our clients find our containers are perfect for items such as:
