For Fargo-Moorhead residents who spend the winter somewhere warmer, the question each November is what to do with the car, truck, boat, or trailer that stays behind. MegaStorage Fargo Moorhead, at 4126 29th Ave S in Moorhead, MN, offers storage units for snowbirds: enclosed, drive-in units with a 12 foot wide by 14 foot tall door, power in every unit, and a month-to-month lease that can match the months you are away. This guide covers unit sizes and monthly prices, what snowbirds store, how to pay while you are gone, and how access works when you leave and come back.

Moorhead Storage Units for the Months You Are Away

Every unit at MegaStorage Fargo Moorhead is enclosed and drive-in, with a 12 foot wide by 14 foot tall overhead door, a 120V electrical outlet, and an overhead light. Four sizes add a 30-amp outlet. A vehicle drives in, the door closes, and it stays indoors for the winter instead of sitting in a driveway under snow.

The buildings sit 55 feet apart, so there is room to turn a truck and trailer or a boat on its trailer and back straight in, even with snow on the ground.

Storage Unit Sizes and Monthly Prices

Sizes below are written depth first, so a 30 x 14 is 30 feet deep and 14 feet wide. The rental page lists the same units width first, so the 30 x 14 appears there as 14 x 30. Every unit rents month to month.

• 30 x 14: $378 per month

What Snowbirds Store in Moorhead

• The car or truck that stays home. If you fly south, the vehicle you leave behind can sit indoors instead of in the driveway. See the guide to indoor car storage in Moorhead.
• The boat. Boating season on the Red River and the Minnesota lakes is over, and the boat goes in on its trailer. See the guide to indoor boat storage in Moorhead.
• A trailer or a second vehicle that does not need to be in the driveway until spring.
• More than one vehicle. The 40 x 28 has two overhead doors and a partition with a pass-through, so two vehicles each get their own door.

How to Choose a Unit Size Before You Leave

• One car or truck: the 30 x 14, the smallest unit, fits one vehicle.
• A boat on its trailer or a long pickup: measure the overall length, tongue to rear or bumper to bumper, and choose a unit deeper than that number. The 35 x 14, 40 x 14, and 50 x 17 add depth.
• Height and width: every door is 12 feet wide and 14 feet tall. Measure the highest point, including a windshield, tower, or rack, and the widest point, including mirrors.
• Two vehicles: the 40 x 28 gives each one its own door. Several vehicles point to the 70 x 28 pull-through.

Paying Rent While You Are Away

MegaStorage Fargo Moorhead offers online rental and online bill pay. You can reserve the unit before you leave and pay the monthly bill online from wherever you spend the winter.

The lease is month to month with no long-term commitment, so you can rent for the months you are gone and move out when you are back in the spring. The reservation deposit equals the first month's rent and is credited in full on the first invoice. If you decide not to move in, it is refunded in full within 30 days of notice.
