Self Storage Near the University of Scranton: A Student's Guide

Student Storage


UrbanLock Storage
April 1st, 2026



Heading home for the summer, studying abroad, or moving between apartments? Storing your stuff locally beats hauling it across the state twice. UrbanLock Storage is a short drive from the University of Scranton and Marywood University, with affordable, secure units and month-to-month terms built for the academic calendar.

Why Students Store Locally

  • No long drives home with a packed car at the end of the term
  • Month-to-month rental means you only pay for summer or a semester away
  • Split a unit with roommates to cut the cost further
  • Your belongings stay close for an easy move-in when you return

What Size Do Students Need?

Most students do fine with a small unit. A 5x5 holds boxes, a mini-fridge, and dorm gear; a 5x10 fits a full dorm or a studio apartment's worth of furniture. Not sure? Try the size calculator or see all unit sizes.

How to Store Smart Over the Summer


  • Label every box and keep an inventory on your phone
  • Elevate boxes off the floor and leave a small aisle
  • Don't store food or anything perishable
  • Disassemble bed frames and furniture to save space

Secure and Simple

UrbanLock is fully fenced and gated with 24/7 cameras and an on-site manager, with daily access 6 AM to 10 PM. Rent and pay online before you even arrive. See our student storage options.
