You may notice something new the next time you come by. We’re in the process of installing a new sign to help increase visibility from the highway, making it easier for people to locate and navigate to our facility. In addition, this sign will also feature an LED reader board.

Of course, having the sign is one thing, but getting it in place was a process in itself! The sign was fabricated off site, then painted and transported on a flatbed trailer to our office. Once it was here, the only way to lift it was by crane, so we hired All-Out to come and lift the sign from the trailer to mount on the concrete pad we had prepared for it.

Once the sign was off the trailer, it was carefully maneuvered into place and set on the mounting plates that had been installed a few days prior. The plates were set first because aligning a plate without the weight of the sign on it is a much easier process, especially if any small adjustments need to be made to line up the holes in the plate with the mounting bolts.

Once the sign was placed over the mounting plates, lining it up for final placement and making sure it was level was the next step. Making minor adjustments to ensure the sign was standing straight is essential, so it was checked multiple times throughout the process to be sure that it was perfectly upright.

Once the sign was properly set up and aligned with the mounting plate, the process of welding began. Russ is an expert welder in addition to fabricating our sign post, and he took the time to set up a series of heavy welds to ensure maximum strength and that the sign and mounting plate were permanently fused together.

As the welding continued, the level was checked several times to make sure that the sign remained perfectly upright. Once this was ensured, the mounting bolts were tightened into place to lock down the plates in their final fitment.

And as the sun sets, our new sign post is in place. Once the installers are scheduled, the sign faces and LED reader boards will be installed. More on those to come soon!

We are pleased to announce our new climate-controlled storage building is now completed and ready for move in!

We designed the building to use high-density foam-filled construction panels for increased insulation and radiant floor heating, in order to provide more efficient and even heating across the building for the winter months. The building uses an advanced thermometer monitoring system to maintain the interior temperature at 55 degrees. Having radiant floor heating means that all units will be evenly heated without any restrictions due to airflow. In the summer months, the insulation and large footprint of the building will help keep it naturally cool, making it a cost effective solution to maintaining temperatures year-round.

Our main entry features an automatic sliding door, so no need to fumble with keys or punch in a keycode if you have an armload of items to carry inside. We also provide flatbed moving carts for use at the building, so carting heavier items in and out of the building won’t be much of a hassle. Inside, we feature the same roll-up doors used across our facility and the same deadbolt-style cylinder locks to maintain security for your stored items. A high-end surveillance system has also been set up inside the building to monitor the facility 24/7.

Access hours are from 7:00am – 8:00pm, 7 days a week. For security purposes, the doors will close and deactivate after those hours in order to maintain a more secured facility.

These units are perfect for storing antiques, vintage furniture, documents, records, book collections and more, as the temperatures inside are ideal for minimizing moisture in the air. (They’re also perfect if you would prefer to stay out of the cold or heat when you’re accessing your regular items as well!)

Far West Mini Storage – The FIRST best place for storage in the Bitterroot Valley.

Our newest buildings have completed construction and we now have multiple 12×30 and 10×20 units available for rent! All our new units have fully paved access right to your unit door inside our fenced and access-controlled gated facility, and will have camera surveillance and dusk-to-dawn lighting like in the rest of our facility.

We now have an additional 134 10×20 units and 31 12×30 units available for rent as of August 1st, 2022.

In addition to the new units in the back, construction will begin soon on our final building at the front of our property. This will feature a total of 12 12×30 storage units with a wider turnout area, and 90 enclosed climate controlled units. Our climate controlled units will be enclosed in the north end of the building, which will feature radiant heated floors to ensure even temperature control. The building will be secured by a single entry door and will feature full lighting and video surveillance, with 5′ wide hallways between units. Construction is expected to begin in the coming weeks, with estimated completion this fall.

We look forward to the completion of these units so we can continue to serve all your storage needs!

At Far West Mini Storage, safety and convenience are our top priorities for our customers. We have multiple unit sizes, ranging from 10×10 all the way up to 28×38. Our standard (non-RV) unit sizes are either 10 or 15 feet wide, from 10 up to 30 feet deep. Everybody has different storage needs, so we built our unit buildings to create a variety of unit sizes to fit almost every need.

We also have our facility fully paved, because rain or shine, you should never have to worry about splashing through a puddle or tracking mud inside your unit. Pavement also prevents unwanted weeds from growing in front of unit doors and helps discourage rodents*. Our alley ways are all 30 feet wide, giving you ample room to turn corners while towing a trailer. We plow and clear our facility regularly after every snowfall to make the best possible experience for all our customers.

_{*while pavement discourages rodent populations, no guarantee is made by Far West Mini Storage or its employees regarding the presence of rodents. Tenants are responsible for taking any additional actions for further rodent prevention in their units.}
