    What are the units of measurements of your given dimensions ? Inches, centimeters, feet, yards, meters, Kilometers, miles ?

    Never mind, I had a brain fart and my thoughts went sideways…. I started thinking you had a big old box of some sort and wanted to shove it into your attic………

    I'd be concerned about putting a bunch of weight in the attic - you sure it's up to it structurally? Also gets mighty hot in attics.....

    It couldn't get much hotter than the steel shed of a storage locker I have today (and for the past 10 years?)

    I'm sure time is taking it's toll on these items, but at this point my storage bill is so high that I can air condition the attic. (just kidding)

    What I can afford to do is put down a layer of insulation and then something like this, https://todayshomeowner.com/attic/vi...in-your-attic/

    My storage unit is 10x30 (feet). My apartment is probably 20x50 feet. The attic access is very limited, and I can post those dimensions if it would be helpful.

    Thanks for everyones help...

    Most trussed attics are not designed for additional weight. I got the "DO NOT STORE STUFF UP THERE" talk when I had my house built. I'm sure a little bit of stuff won't hurt, but this doesn't sound like a little bit of stuff.

    Maybe it's time for a bunch of listings on Craig's List, finding a cheaper storage unit, or a new apartment/house?

    Do you have a yard where you could build a shed?

    Not busting anyone?s balls here, but if you?ve had stuff in storage for ten years do you really need that stuff?

    I say sell the stuff that?s worth something and find a dumpster for the rest of it.
