This is one of a series of articles spotlighting our storage facilities and neighborhoods.
CubeSmart Bartow Avenue, while technically located in the Baychester neighborhood, serves Co-Op City, as well. Baychester is a mix of post-war single- and two-family homes where professionals live and grow their families. Across I-95, Co-Op City is one of the largest cooperative housing developments in the country, where approximately 50,000 residents live in 15,372 apartments in 35 high-rise buildings and 7 townhouse clusters.
Convenient to both thriving family neighborhoods in the Bronx, NY, our CubeSmart self-storage facility serves the residents of both for their storage and moving needs.
With over 148,000 square feet of storage space, this Bartow Avenue location provides you with the space to store your Mom’s belongings when moving her out of her home, starting a business, or experiencing any other life transition. For your peace of mind, this location provides around-the-clock video recording. Plus, our manager lives on-site.
Whether you’re an experienced mover or this is your first time, there are additional amenities CubeSmart offers at this location to aid your transition. Customers can utilize a FREE move-in truck and reliable driver based on availability, or Customers can work with our partner, Simple Moving Labor (SML), at a discounted price for help loading and unloading items from your vehicle. Professional shredding and organizing services, in addition to free Wi-Fi and free lobby workstations, are available to all Customers. Save yourself a trip and pick up professional grade moving boxes along with other packing and shipping supplies while in the store.
