How to read the result

The four fill-rate bands and the decision each one implies
Fill rateWhat it meansWhat to do
Under 60%Generous access, and space you are paying for but not usingCheck the size below before you sign
60–85%A practical fill with room for what you forgotTake it
85–100%Fits physically, no tolerance for awkward shapes or late additionsTake it only for short, no-access storage
Over 100%Does not fit at the selected packing densitySize up, or pack tighter and re-check
The fill-rate bands, from empty to over capacity 0 to 60 percent: Under 60%. over-sized. 60 to 85 percent: 60–85%. practical fill. 85 to 100 percent: 85–100%. tight, no tolerance. 100 to 120 percent: Over 100%. size up. Under 60% over-sized 60–85% practical fill 85–100% tight, no tolerance Over 100% size up 0% 25% 50% 75% 100% 120%
Where the result lands on one axis. The band that matters most is the one just above the target: at 90 to 100 percent everything must go exactly as planned, and inventories rarely do.

Usable capacity by unit size

What the percentage is measured against. Usable volume is gross volume at moderate packing density, computed from the published size data rather than quoted from a brochure:

SizeFloor areaGross volumeUsable at 85%Typically holds
5×525 sq ft200 cu ft170 cu ftPart of one room

Item volumes on the other side of the comparison are the published packed values in the furniture dimension dataset.

Assumptions and limitations

The fit percentage uses the packing efficiency and aisle choice saved in your Storage Plan. It compares packed cubic feet with estimated usable capacity; it does not prove that a sofa will pass through the actual door, turn through a corridor or occupy the ideal shape. Advertised unit dimensions are nominal. Confirm interior and door measurements with the facility before renting.
