Frequently Asked Questions

Where do I mail my payment?

Rent payments can be mailed to: Carnegie Self Storage P.O. Box 15408, Pittsburgh PA, 15237

Is a long term lease required at Carnegie Self Storage (CSS)?

Most Storage companies require 2 to 3 months rent up front. At Carnegie Self Storage (CSS), the rent is pro-rated at move-in, with new rent charging out every first of the month.

Is a 30-day notice required (to the office) before I can vacate?

While some facilities may require a 30-day written notice to vacate, Carnegie Self Storage only requires that a tenant give us notice by the 10th day of their last month.

What type of identification (or documentation) is required to rent a storage unit?

Pennsylvania law requires a person to be 18 years of age to sign a contract. In addition to that, Carnegie Self Storage requires a person to have a valid driver’s license or a state issued I.D. card.

Are locks provided by the storage facility?

No. Each tenant has to provide his/her own lock and have their unit door secured within 24 hours of signing the rental agreement. Locks are available for purchase at the office.

Do I need insurance to store my items with CSS?

Insurance is recommended but an option. Carnegie Self Storage does not insure tenant's’ contents which are being stored in a rented storage space. That responsibility falls on each tenant. Often times, a homeowner’s insurance policy will also cover their storage space. Check with your insurance agent. For those who do not own a home, a simple renter’s insurance policy can be purchased at an affordable rate. Again, check with your agent to see if your storage space is covered. Insurance is more than just security; it buys you peace of mind.

Does CSS offer parking spaces for the storage of RV's, boats, or vehicles?

We have limited exterior spaces for a boat with trailer or a vehicle such as an RV. Interior unit storage of vehicles and boats is considered on a case-by-case basis. Please contact us with overall dimensions (L, W, H) and vehicle detail information.

What are the acceptable methods and ways to make a payment?

At this time, we accept cash, checks and money orders.

Is there a grace period to pay rent?

The rent is due promptly by the 1st of every month. However, CSS does offer a grace period of five days for the few who might find it necessary under special circumstances. However, if a payment has not been received by the 5th, then a $20 late fee is added to the tenant’s account.

How do I know what size to choose for my storage?

Let us help. We will work with you to select the appropriate storage space.
