A zero turn mower, a snow blower, a generator, and a stack of folding tables for the side jobs that come with owning property in Cheyenne add up fast. Most Cheyenne garages were not built with that much equipment in mind, especially older homes near the city center where a single car garage is standard. All-Rite Storage, on Terry Road in Cheyenne, rents drive up units built for exactly this kind of equipment overflow, whether it belongs to a homeowner, a small landscaping operation, or someone who plows driveways in the winter and mows lawns in the summer.

At a Glance

  • All-Rite Storage offers drive up units up to 10x20 for equipment storage in Cheyenne.
  • Units are outdoor and not climate controlled, which matters for fuel, electronics, and anything sensitive to Wyoming's temperature swings.
  • Month to month terms let a renter store snow equipment through summer and lawn equipment through winter without a long lease.
  • The property has security fencing and lighting for equipment left unattended between uses.
  • Drive up access means loading a mower or generator straight off a trailer or truck bed.

Who Actually Needs Equipment Storage, Versus Contractor Storage

This page and All-Rite Storage's contractor storage page cover different problems, even though both involve tools and machinery. Contractor storage is built around a job that starts and ends, materials and tools that move with a project. Equipment storage is built around gear someone owns outright and uses on a recurring, seasonal basis, not tied to any one job.

The Two Person Equipment Storage Handles Best

The first is a homeowner or small property owner in Cheyenne with more outdoor equipment than garage space, someone running a mower, a tiller, a snow blower, and a generator out of a garage that was already full of everyday household items. The second is a small landscaping or snow removal operator, often a one or two person business, who owns their own mowers, trimmers, and plow equipment but does not have a commercial yard to keep it in between jobs.

What Fits, and What a 10x20 Unit Actually Holds

All-Rite Storage's largest unit is a 10x20 drive up space. That comfortably holds a riding mower or a small zero turn, a snow blower, a generator, a couple of push mowers or trimmers, and folded outdoor furniture or seasonal decor stacked around the equipment. It does not comfortably hold a full size tractor with attachments, a dump trailer, or the kind of commercial mowing fleet a larger landscaping company runs. A one or two person operation with a single mower and trailer's worth of hand equipment is a realistic fit. A crew running three commercial mowers and a chipper is better served by a dedicated equipment yard.

Seasonal Rotation Instead of Year Round Storage for Everything

The efficient way to use a 10x20 for both lawn and snow equipment is rotation rather than trying to fit both seasons' gear in at once. Snow removal equipment, blowers, plow attachments, ice melt supplies, takes priority in the unit from roughly October through April in Cheyenne's climate. Lawn and landscaping equipment, mowers, trimmers, edgers, takes over from May through September. Storing both sets year round in the same unit works, but a renter who swaps gear seasonally frees up meaningful space rather than packing the unit solid twelve months a year.

Fuel, Batteries, and What Needs Extra Care in an Outdoor Unit

Because these are drive up units exposed to Cheyenne's actual weather rather than a climate controlled interior, equipment with fuel, batteries, or electronics needs more thought than a box of hand tools does.

Small Engines and Fuel

Gas powered mowers and generators typically need fuel drained or stabilized before extended storage, both as a general small engine maintenance practice and because most self storage facilities restrict stored fuel as a matter of policy. All-Rite Storage's specific fuel and flammable materials policy is worth confirming directly before moving in equipment that still has fuel in the tank.

Batteries and Electronics

Battery powered equipment, cordless trimmers, electric mowers, battery packs for plow controllers, holds up better when batteries are removed and kept somewhere temperature controlled rather than left in an unheated unit through a Cheyenne winter, since extreme cold degrades battery life faster than moderate storage.

Rust and Moisture

Wyoming's climate is dry overall, which helps, but equipment coming out of winter plowing work often carries road salt and moisture that can accelerate rust if gear is stored wet. Hosing off and drying equipment before it goes into the unit protects it far more than anything about the unit itself.

Why Month to Month Terms Fit Seasonal Equipment Better Than a Fixed Lease

A homeowner or small operator storing seasonal equipment rarely wants to pay for a full year of space at the same rate through months when the unit is holding half as much gear. All-Rite Storage's month to month structure lets a renter size up during the season they are actively rotating equipment and keep the same unit through the off season without renegotiating anything, or release it if storage needs shrink. That flexibility matters more here than almost any other single feature, since equipment storage by nature is not a steady, unchanging volume across the year the way boxed household items tend to be.

If your garage in Cheyenne has run out of room for a mower, snow equipment, or a generator, All-Rite Storage's drive up units on Terry Road are sized and set up for exactly that kind of seasonal equipment rotation.
