About Lakeshore Portland Storage Bays
Lakeshore Portland Storage Bays is a specialty self-storage facility in Portland, Maine, established in 1979. The site supports military & pcs storage, document & records storage, business inventory & records, with on-site staff, controlled access, and unit sizes ranging across the most-requested footprints. Renters in this market often choose Lakeshore Portland Storage Bays for the combination of climate stability, security posture, and proximity to Portland's residential and business districts.
The facility tracks closely with the broader Maine specialty-storage profile: indoor units run climate-controlled with HVAC and dehumidification, while outdoor and drive-up bays support oversized goods, vehicles, and trailers. The on-site team is available during business hours for move-in coordination, packing supplies, and unit upgrades, and electronic keypad entry plus video surveillance secure the property outside staffed hours. If you're storing anything sensitive — wine, vehicles, fine art, archival records — request the climate logs and access policies before reserving; this facility will share them on request.
Specialty conditions
Each storage type at Lakeshore Portland Storage Bays has its own conditions and operating norms. Climate-controlled and wine-grade units are temperature- and humidity-managed with continuous monitoring. RV and boat bays are sized for full-size rigs and many cruiser-class boats, with shore power and dump-station access available at participating sites. Document and records storage follows industry chain-of-custody norms with logged retrieval. For vehicle and fine-art storage, expect indoor bays with battery tending or museum-grade conditions, respectively. Bring your specs and the facility will confirm fit before move-in.

What renters say
“I rotated 42 banker boxes off-site over a weekend. Their indexing portal is honestly better than what my old firm used. Pulled a closed file in under 20 minutes.”
Devon Hayes — Independent attorney
“Their boat bay is heated, has shore power for our tow rig, and the team helps wrap and uncover at season change. Worth every dollar versus what we were doing in my driveway.”
Jamie Park — Wakeboard team owner
“Keeping a backline rig at room temperature without humidity damage is harder than it sounds. Their indoor unit holds steady and the 24/7 access matters when load-out runs late.”
Will Okafor — Touring guitarist
