How the offers here are costed
Short stays: The offer needs a 2-month stay; for 1 month the standard rate costs less, so that is the total shown.
Total = the offer months, then the standard rate, for a 1-month stay, plus admin fee $28; offers need at least 2 months, so for a shorter stay we cost both the offer over that minimum and the standard rate, and show the cheaper. Insurance and price rises are not included.
Monthly rates and offers as listed in the location's online booking widget. Copied from fortknoxselfstorage.com.au on 8 November 2026, 10:11am.
