Grande Prairie’s Winter Storage Crunch: Why November Is the Best Time to Secure Your Unit

When the temperatures drop and the snow starts flying, Grande Prairie residents know it’s time to think ahead. Every year, garages and driveways fill up with summer gear, classic cars, tools, and toys that need a warm, dry spot for the winter. That’s where Cans N Boxes Storage comes in — but here’s the thing: by the time December hits, most of our best units are already gone.

If you’ve been meaning to get organized before the cold sets in, November is the perfect month to lock down your space.


1. Beat the Rush and Get Your Pick of Units

Once the first big snowfall hits, people start scrambling for storage. Motorcycles, lawn tractors, camping gear, and renovation tools all need a dry home — and that means storage units go fast.
By reserving early, you’ll have your choice of drive-up units, ground-level containers, or double doors for easier access. No waiting lists, no last-minute stress.


2. Protect Your Stuff from Grande Prairie’s Winter Freeze

Grande Prairie winters aren’t gentle. Between temperature swings, snow, and moisture, things like furniture, electronics, and vehicles can easily be damaged if left outdoors or in unheated sheds.
Our steel shipping-container units are weather-sealed and rodent-resistant, built to handle northern Alberta’s toughest seasons. That peace of mind alone is worth booking ahead.


3. Make Room at Home Before the Holidays

If your garage or basement feels more like a storage locker than a living space, now’s the time to reclaim it. Whether you’re hosting family dinners, parking an extra vehicle, or just want room for holiday decorations — a Cans N Boxes unit helps you start the season organized.


4. Flexible Rentals for Every Need

You don’t need to commit to long-term storage to get a great unit. We offer month-to-month rentals, easy online payments, and secure 24/7 access.
Need to store a sled trailer or work truck for just a few months? No problem. Want to keep household goods tucked away all winter? We’ve got you covered.


5. Local, Family-Run, and Focused on Service

At Cans N Boxes Storage, we’re proud to be locally owned and operated in Grande Prairie. We care about keeping your belongings safe — and about treating our customers like neighbors, not numbers.
We’re located just minutes off the main routes, making access easy even in winter weather.
