The Storage Place on TX-19 is a locally owned self storage facility a few minutes north of downtown Athens. Every storage unit here is drive-up, and there is covered parking for boats and vehicles, with Cedar Creek Lake and Lake Palestine both a short drive away. It is also a U-Haul location, so you can rent the truck and the unit in one stop.
Rent it whichever way suits you. Talk to a real person on the property, or find your unit and rent it online in a few minutes without making a single phone call.
The number on your agreement is the number you pay for a year. No surprise hikes after you move in.
Staffed seven days a week by people who know the property and will walk you out to a unit.
Pick your unit and sign online in minutes if you would rather skip the call entirely.
Most people guess one size too small. Here is what actually fits in each size on TX-19, including an 8×12 for anyone caught between a 5×10 and a 10×10. Live availability and pricing are in the tool at the top of this page.
Every storage unit at our TX-19 property is ground level with a roll-up door. No elevators, no hallways, no carts. Back up to the door, unload, and you are done.
That matters most on the days that count: moving in, moving out, and every time you need to grab one thing in a hurry.
Units run from 5×10 up to 10×30 and larger, so it works whether you are storing a few boxes or a whole house.

Pick a size. Rent it your way. Drive up and unload.
It depends on the size and what is available. Live pricing for every unit at our TX-19 location is in the availability tool at the top of this page — the real number, not an estimate. We do not publish a headline starting price on purpose: rates move, and we would rather you saw the actual figure for the actual unit.
Your rate is locked for 12 months from the date you sign. The number on your agreement is the number you pay for a year, not a teaser rate that jumps once you have unloaded.
As a rough rule: a 5×10 holds a studio, an 8×12 or 10×10 holds a one-bedroom apartment, a 10×15 holds most of a house, and a 10×20 holds a house plus a car. If you are between two sizes, take the larger one — the price gap is usually small and moving twice is not.
Yes. Every storage unit on the property is ground level with a roll-up door you can pull a vehicle or trailer right up to. No elevators, no hallways, no carts.
Not at this location. Every unit on TX-19 is a standard drive-up unit. If you are storing electronics, photographs, documents or instruments, that is worth knowing before you rent — and we would rather tell you now than have you find out in August. If you need climate control, our Athens South location is fully climate-controlled.
Yes. Our covered spaces are about 10 by 20 feet, which fits a car, a small boat on its trailer, a jet ski or a utility trailer. Clearance runs from about 8.5 feet at the front to 9.5 feet at the back. For longer RVs and trailers we have a few uncovered 12 by 30 spaces, though those tend to stay full, so check availability before you plan around one.
The gate is open 6am to 10pm every day. If you need to get in outside those hours, 24-hour access is available for an added fee — ask us about adding it to your unit. The office is staffed 8am to 6pm, seven days a week.
Yes. Pick your unit in the tool at the top of this page and complete the whole rental online in a few minutes. If you would rather talk to someone or see a unit first, come by the office.
Yes. The TX-19 property is a U-Haul location, so you can rent a truck and a storage unit in the same stop.
Yes. The Storage Place bought the TX-19 property from Sentry Storage. If you see older reviews under the Sentry Storage name, they are about this same location.
Yes. Our 10×25 and 10×30 units fit a whole house plus the garage, or a contractor’s tools, trailer and materials. Month to month, with no commercial lease.
Reserve online using the tool at the top of this page, or come by the office. Bring a government-issued photo ID and a payment method. Everything is month to month, and boxes, tape and hand trucks are on site if you need them for move-in.
Yes. We offer a military discount, along with student and other discounts. Ask about it when you rent and we will apply the one you qualify for.
No advance notice is required. Let us know when you move out and send photos of the empty, clean unit. There are no move-out fees unless the unit is left damaged or full of trash.
Yes. The Storage Place is a locally owned, family-run company, not a national chain. There are real people on the property seven days a week, and the people setting the rates own the business — so when something needs a decision, it gets made here.
