With unique restaurants and impressive street fairs, Jamaica, Queens is known as one of New York City\u2019s most culturally rich neighborhoods. With rents soaring in Manhattan and Brooklyn, New Yorkers are looking at Queens for affordable housing options. Though not often associated with its many colleges and significant student population, the neighborhood comes alive September through May while classes are in session at York College and St. John\u2019s University. When exams finally end and dorms have been packed up, college students can use CubeSmart self-storage to store their furniture, clothing, and school supplies for the summer.<\/p>\n

Storage in Jamaica, Queens is easy because you\u2019re never far from one of our stores. While you can find us on 94th Avenue <\/a>and along Jamaica Avenue in the Hollis <\/a>neighborhood, St. John\u2019s University students choose our location between 179th Place and 180th Street on Jamaica Avenue<\/a>, because of the \u201csuper service in a close to campus facility on the way to the airport,\u201d as said by customer Gigi1221 in a review for the store.<\/p>\n

We have a bilingual manager to help you find the right storage option and\u00a0a free Super Move truck and driver to bring your belongings from your apartment to our store. There are lobby workstations with free Wi-Fi and professional shredding so you can get rid of any bills, leases, or old assignments (or tests Mom and Dad don\u2019t need to see). Our facilities always provide 24-hour video-recording, and this store also offers temperature monitoring and individual lighting and electricity in your unit.<\/p>\n

Jamaica Apartments vs. Storage Cost Analysis<\/strong><\/h2>\n
\"Jamaica<\/a><\/div>\n

Even if you\u2019re not a college student, our Jamaica Avenue CubeSmart self-storage facility is a great solution for getting that extra storage space you need at a fraction of the cost per square foot of Queens apartments.<\/p>\n

Less than 10 minutes from our Jamaica Avenue CubeSmart, a 1-bedroom apartment rental starts at $1,875 for 740 square feet while a 2-bedroom starts at $2,500 for 1,000 square feet. For that one extra bedroom in an apartment in the same building, you\u2019ll pay an additional $625 every month. If you are looking for an extra bedroom as a means of storage and not for a roommate, you could instead save over $400 a month by renting a\u00a010×10 climate-controlled storage unit <\/a>at CubeSmart. For just $197.10 a month (as of 8\/3\/16), a 10×10 climate-controlled storage unit fits the contents of a standard 2-bedroom apartment. You can keep your 1-bedroom Jamaica apartment, and conveniently store seasonal items, clothing, mementos, and more in CubeSmart self-storage. No need to spend the money each month for more apartment square footage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
