An outdoor unit is typically a drive-up unit with a roll-up door, which gives you the ability to load your belongings directly from a vehicle or truck.

Indoor units are frequently climate-controlled, and provide a clean and secure environment. Free hand carts are available to assist in loading and unloading indoor units.
