Bolt Storage runs a no-frills, 24-hour drive-up and outdoor parking facility at 1579 Depot Street NE on the northeast side of Christiansburg, VA. The site is built around two simple use cases: fast drive-up self storage for everyday household and apartment-sized loads, and outdoor parking for RVs, boats, trailers, campers, and extra vehicles. It is a practical pick for renters across the New River Valley who want quick access without paying for features they will not use.

About this Bolt Storage facility

The 1579 Depot Street NE site sits just off Route 11 on the northeast side of Christiansburg, a short drive from downtown, the Christiansburg Aquatic Center, and the New River Valley Mall, with quick access to Interstate 81 via Roanoke Street. Gate access is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week, with a keypad entry system, and the lot is fully fenced and lit for evening visits. Every rental is month-to-month with no long-term commitment, every unit comes with a free lock, and rates stay affordable with discounts that change based on current unit availability.

This is the more compact of the two Bolt Storage sites in Christiansburg. If you need larger commercial sizes (12×24 up to 18×30), interior hallway-access units, or dedicated student storage near Virginia Tech, the Roanoke Street location is a better fit. Depot Street is built for fast drive-up access and outdoor vehicle parking.

Drive-up storage units

Pull up to your unit, load or unload in minutes, and drive right out. All five drive-up sizes are ground-level with exterior roll-up doors:

  • 5×10 — boxes, seasonal items, small furniture.
  • 8×10 — a little more depth for awkward items, shelving, or sports gear.
  • 10×10 — contents of a one-bedroom apartment.
  • 10×20 — two-bedroom home or small-business inventory.
  • 10×25 — three-bedroom home or larger business loads.

RV, boat, and outdoor vehicle parking

The 12×30 outdoor parking space at this Christiansburg facility is sized for RVs, fifth-wheels, boats, trailers, campers, jet skis, work trucks, and extra household vehicles. The lot is fenced with keypad gate access and lit for night visits, so you can drop off or pick up your vehicle on your own schedule — useful for boating weekends, hunting season, or work crews staging trucks and trailers. RV, boat, and automobile storage are listed service categories on this site's Google Business Profile.

"Was put in a bind with my rental situation and quickly needed to move into a storage unit. Was able to do everything online and have access right away- like immediately! I got to the gate and realized I didn’t have a PIN number to get in- called the number (well after business hours) and was pleasantly surprised I had a real person help me!!! Happy so far!"
