Facility Overview
Situated at 10300 Watson Road in the Sunset Hills and Crestwood suburban commercial corridor of southwest St. Louis County, this Extra Space Storage location offers specialized vehicle parking alongside traditional self-storage solutions. The facility features a secure, gated open-air surface layout with wide driving aisles designed to accommodate personal and commercial vehicles alike.

Wide perimeter lanes allow for straightforward maneuvering, backing up, and turning even for larger vehicular profiles.
