Why Ground-Level Storage Units Make Moving Day Easier at Modern Storage® Bentonville

Moving is never anyone’s idea of a good time, but how you store can make a huge difference. At Modern Storage® Bentonville, we believe the best storage experience starts with one simple choice: Keep it on the ground. All of our units are located on the ground level, no elevators, no stairs, no nonsense. Whether you’re storing a few household items or pulling up with an RV, here’s why ground-floor access makes all the difference.

1. 🚚 Faster Unloading = Less Time Moving

When you’re on the clock (literally or emotionally), the last thing you want is to wait around for an elevator or haul items upstairs. Ground-floor storage eliminates the wait and the work.
  • No elevators to slow you down
  • No stairs to navigate with boxes or furniture
  • Direct access from your car or truck to your unit
More efficiency means less stress and more time to enjoy your new space, not just move into it.

2. 💪 Easier on Your Body and Back

Moving is physically demanding enough. Don't make it harder than it needs to be. At Modern Storage® Bentonville, every unit is accessible without climbing, lifting, or awkward maneuvering. Here’s how we make it even easier:
  • Climate-controlled building with sliding glass doors
  • Complimentary rolling carts for indoor moves
  • Drive-up units for outdoor access, just pull up and unload
Whether it’s a couch, a file cabinet, or holiday bins, you won’t break a sweat (or a muscle) getting your items stored safely.

3. 🛡️ Safer for You and Your Belongings

No stairs. No elevators. Fewer accidents. Ground-level storage reduces your risk of:
  • Tripping on stairwells
  • Dropping items from a height
  • Getting stuck in faulty elevators
  • Slips, scrapes, or overexertion
You’ll also avoid damaging your items during vertical lifts or tight squeezes. And to make things even safer, we offer a free move-in truck with your rental, complete with dollies and moving blankets to protect your belongings.

✅ Why Ground-Level Storage at Modern Storage® is Different

At many other storage facilities, ground-floor units are limited or cost more. Not here. At Modern Storage® Bentonville, every single unit whether indoor, climate-controlled, or outdoor drive-up is located on the ground floor. It's not a perk. It's our standard. Plus, we provide:
  • Clean, secure, and fully fenced facilities
  • 24/7 surveillance and controlled-access gates
  • No hidden fees, deposits, or surprise charges
