Comprehensive Storage Options

At Fairfield Self Storage, we understand that one size does not fit all. Our facility is designed to handle everything from micro-storage needs to large vehicle preservation.

Climate-Controlled Storage

New Jersey’s climate is notorious for its extremes. In Fairfield and Totowa, we experience hot, humid summers where temperatures regularly soar into the 80s and 90s, and freezing winters where the mercury drops well below freezing.

Our Climate-Controlled Units are essential for protecting sensitive items from these fluctuations. By maintaining a consistent temperature and humidity level, we prevent:
  • Warping and cracking in wooden furniture.
  • Mold and mildew growth on fabrics and papers (crucial during humid July/August months).
  • Electronic degradation caused by extreme cold or heat.
These units are ideal for storing antiques, electronics, medical records, and family heirlooms.

RV, Boat & Vehicle Storage

Many Totowa residents enjoy the outdoors, perhaps spending weekends at the Jersey Shore or camping in the Kittatinny Mountains. However, HOA regulations and narrow driveways often make parking an RV or boat at home impossible.

We offer dedicated RV Storage, Boat Storage, and Vehicle Storage options. Our wide driveways and secure perimeter make it easy to maneuver large vehicles. Whether you need to park your jet skis for the winter or your classic car for the summer, our facility offers a paved, secure, and monitored environment to keep your investments safe.




Self-Storage Options for Every Need

From 5x5 lockers (perfect for seasonal tires or boxes) to massive 10x30 units (ideal for whole-home moves), our inventory is diverse.
  • Personal Storage: decluttering, renovations, or life transitions.
  • Business Storage: Inventory overflow, document archiving, or equipment storage for local contractors.

Seasonal Storage Information

Living in the Northeast means your storage needs change with the leaves. Here is how Fairfield Self Storage helps you manage the seasons in Essex and Passaic Counties:
  • Winter (Nov - Mar): The local climate can be harsh, with snow and ice common. This is the prime time to store motorcycles, convertibles, boats, and RVs to protect them from road salt and freezing temps. It is also the right time to move patio furniture into a dry, standard unit.
  • Summer (May - Sept): As humidity rises, move your heavy winter coats, snow blowers, and wool rugs into a climate-controlled unit to free up closet space at home.

The Fairfield Advantage: Security and Community

We are more than just a garage for your stuff. We are a part of the local business ecosystem. Our facility is equipped with 24/7 video surveillance, electronic gate access, and a fully fenced perimeter.While you are in the area visiting your unit, you can take advantage of the amenities that make Fairfield a hub of activity. We are located near:
  • Willowbrook Mall: Just a stone's throw away, perfect for grabbing a bite or shopping after a storage run.
  • Notable Landmarks: We are close to the Essex County Airport and local breweries like Cricket Hill Brewery, making your trip to the storage unit part of a productive day out.
  • Green Spaces: If you are retrieving hiking gear, the Great Piece Meadows and local parks are nearby for immediate recreation.
