District 9 Storage Rental 2027: Self-Storage, Lockers And Prices By Size
On this page
In the former District 9 area (now eastern wards of Ho Chi Minh City such as Long Truong, previously part of Thu Duc City), storage demand falls into three groups: warehouses and logistics space of several hundred square meters for manufacturing and import-export, self-storage priced by cubic meter for individuals and online shops, and lockers inside the residential area for just a few boxes. MyStorage has a self-service locker point inside Ministop MT Eastmark City (Long Truong) and two nearby self-storage facilities at 375 Võ Nguyên Giáp (An Khanh) and 90 Song Hanh (An Phu). Self-storage starts from 1 m³ (holds about 8 to 10 medium cartons); in 2027 a standard 1 m³ unit has a reference price of 873,000 – 965,000 (about US$34–37) VND per month (flexible plan, excluding VAT), see the exact price for your size.
1. Renting in Former District 9: Warehouse, Self-Storage or Locker?
Choose a warehouse or logistics space when you need several hundred square meters and handle goods by pallet, choose self-storage when you need a few cubic meters for belongings or online-shop stock, and choose a locker when you only have a few boxes and want them close to home.
The former District 9 area is the city’s eastern gateway, home to the Saigon Hi-Tech Park, many new residential areas and the routes towards Dong Nai and former Binh Duong. Storage demand therefore ranges from factories needing thousands of square meters to households storing a few boxes.
| Format | Typical scale | Best for | How it is priced |
|---|---|---|---|
| Warehouses and logistics space | Hundreds to thousands of square meters | Manufacturing, processing, import-export, distribution hubs | Negotiated by location, lease term, floor load and three-phase power |
| E-commerce and fulfillment space | Flexible, usually from about 100 square meters | Larger shops handling orders and sorting stock | Usually priced together with services |
| Self-storage and shared shelves | From 1 m³ | Individuals, households, online shops, offices storing documents | Priced by cubic meter, see Check Price |
| Self-service lockers | A few boxes or suitcases | Residents around MT Eastmark City who want storage near home | By usage package, ask directly |
If you need a warehouse of several hundred square meters, the comparison of containers, storage units and warehouses for businesses weighs the cost of each option, and the list of leading logistics companies in Ho Chi Minh City is where to collect quotes from large warehouse operators. MyStorage focuses on self-storage and shared-shelf storage priced by cubic meter plus the locker network, so the rest of this guide covers those three.
2. Why the Former District 9 Area Suits Storage
The area sits next to the Saigon Hi-Tech Park and Cat Lai Port, with Hanoi Highway, the Ho Chi Minh City – Long Thanh – Dau Giay expressway and Ring Road 3 running through it, and it concentrates many new residential areas, so storage demand comes from both businesses and households.
Distances From the Storage Point to Key Hubs
The table measures straight-line distances from the MyStorage locker point inside Ministop MT Eastmark City (Long Truong) to the hubs customers mention most. Real driving distances are longer depending on the route:
| Destination | Distance from MT Eastmark City |
|---|---|
| Cat Lai Port | about 6.3 km |
| Saigon Hi-Tech Park (SHTP) | about 7.8 km |
| 375 Võ Nguyên Giáp self-storage facility | about 8.1 km |
| 90 Song Hanh self-storage facility | about 8.5 km |
| Ben Thanh Market, central District 1 | about 14.6 km |
In other words, cargo heading to the port or the hi-tech park travels only a few kilometres, and when you need a unit larger than a locker, the two self-storage facilities are about 8 km away, still on the same eastern side of the city.
Transport Infrastructure in the East
The area has several ways in and out for both trucks and private vehicles:
- Hanoi Highway and Võ Nguyên Giáp Street: the main corridor back to the centre, former Thu Duc and former Binh Duong
- Ho Chi Minh City – Long Thanh – Dau Giay expressway: towards Dong Nai, Long Thanh airport and Vung Tau
- Ring Road 3: in its final construction stretch with the full route targeted to open within 2026, adding a route to Dong Nai, Tay Ninh and Cai Mep Port without crossing the inner city
- Metro line 1, Ben Thanh – Suoi Tien: 19.7 km with 14 stations, in commercial service since 22 December 2024, with the end-of-line stations in the east, handy for customers collecting items without a car
If your delivery routes stretch beyond this area, the guides to warehouse rental in Thu Duc and storage in former District 2 compare further options along the Võ Nguyên Giáp corridor and around An Phu and Thao Dien.
Demand From Residential and Industrial Areas
Three main sources of demand in the area:
- Apartment residents and new urban areas: moderate living space means seasonal items, suitcases, sports gear and baby equipment need space outside the home
- People working around the Hi-Tech Park: somewhere to keep documents, personal items or belongings while changing homes
- Online shops and small businesses: stock space close to customers in the east and to the routes towards Dong Nai and former Binh Duong
The video below shows how a family reclaimed living space with self-storage, the very need that keeps coming up in the eastern residential areas:

4. MyStorage Points Near the Former District 9 Area
MyStorage has a self-service locker point with 24/7 access inside Ministop MT Eastmark City (Long Truong) for a few boxes, and two self-storage facilities about 8 km away: 375 Võ Nguyên Giáp (An Khanh) and 90 Song Hanh (An Phu).
Lockers Inside Ministop MT Eastmark City
The locker point is at commercial unit 1.15, block A, floors 1 to 2, MT Eastmark City, 39A street 149C, Long Truong ward. Because it sits inside the convenience store of the residential complex, you can drop off or collect items at any hour and combine the trip with everyday shopping.
- Suited to: luggage, suitcases, boxes and personal items of residents around MT Eastmark City
- 24/7 access: you store and collect on your own schedule, with no trip to a distant facility
- Simple to use: the instructions are displayed at the lockers, so it works from the first visit
For the exact location, how to use the lockers and current prices, see the MyStorage lockers at Ministop MT Eastmark City page.
When a Few Boxes Are No Longer Enough: the Two Nearest Facilities
Once your belongings outgrow a locker, the two nearest self-storage facilities both sit on the Võ Nguyên Giáp corridor:
- 375 Võ Nguyên Giáp (An Khanh): air-conditioned self-storage units with individual locks, multi-layer security, a loading area and 24/7 access; this site also has a workspace for startups and online sellers, so you can sit and work there, take stock from your unit and pack orders on the spot instead of carrying goods home
- 90 Song Hanh (An Phu): inside An Phu Sports Park, near Estella Place and Cantavil, about 3 minutes by car from Mega Market An Phu
See the list of MyStorage facilities to pick the point that fits your route.
5. Choosing by Need: Individual, Online Shop or Business
Individuals and families need anything from a single locker to a 5 m³ unit (about 40 to 50 cartons), online shops need a unit where they can keep stock and pick orders, and businesses storing documents or large volumes should also compare shared shelves and warehouses.
Individuals and Families
Personal storage demand in the east usually appears when the apartment stays the same size but the belongings do not. Common situations and the matching options:
- A few boxes or seasonal items: a locker inside MT Eastmark City is enough, with no trip out of the neighbourhood
- Tidying the apartment: a 1 m³ to 2 m³ unit (about 8 to 20 cartons) for suitcases, sports gear and outgrown baby equipment
- Moving or renovating: a 3 m³ to 5 m³ unit holds belongings and a few small pieces of furniture for weeks or months
- Items prone to mould or sensitive to heat: instruments, cameras, books and wooden furniture do better in an air-conditioned unit; see the air-conditioned storage service
Before storing, clean and dry everything, pack in sealed boxes, lift boxes off the floor and label each one. If this is your first time storing and you want the rental process and what to watch for with household belongings, personal mini storage in Ho Chi Minh City goes deeper into this group.
Online Shops and Small Businesses
For online sellers in the east, storage is a link in the selling process: receiving stock, counting it, storing it, picking orders, packing and handing over to the carrier. When choosing storage, consider:
- How often you come and go: a shop with daily orders needs a unit with its own lock and 24/7 access
- Somewhere to pick orders: with only a unit and nowhere to work, you still carry goods home to pack them
- Delivery direction: from the Võ Nguyên Giáp corridor, goods reach the inner city, former Thu Duc and Dong Nai easily
- Peak season: pick a unit slightly larger than your everyday stock
The 375 Võ Nguyên Giáp site covers all three thanks to its workspace for startups and online sellers. How to arrange stock and choose a unit size for a shop is in storage for online sellers, and the larger needs of a young company are in storage for small businesses and startups.
Businesses Needing Large Warehouses or Document Storage
Businesses in the area usually fall into three groups:
- Documents, records and office assets: accounting files, contracts and unused equipment suit a self-storage unit with its own lock; paper is better kept in an air-conditioned unit, see the document and file storage service
- Consumer goods and e-commerce stock: pick a unit by cubic meter and change size by season instead of signing for a whole warehouse
- Large volumes handled by pallet: once stock passes a few dozen cubic meters, compare self-storage, containers and warehouse space before deciding

6. Frequently Asked Questions About Storage in Former District 9
The questions below answer quickly about the area name, the storage formats, prices and how to book.
Which administrative unit is District 9 in now?
From 1 July 2025 Ho Chi Minh City abolished the district level. Former District 9 had been merged into Thu Duc City and is now made up of eastern wards of Ho Chi Minh City such as Long Truong. This guide uses the name former District 9 because it is still the familiar way to search for storage.
Does MyStorage have a storage point in former District 9?
Yes. MyStorage has a self-service locker point inside Ministop MT Eastmark City, Long Truong ward, with 24/7 access. The two nearest self-storage facilities are 375 Võ Nguyên Giáp (An Khanh) and 90 Song Hanh (An Phu), about 8 km away.
Should I rent a locker or a self-storage unit?
Choose a locker when you have only a few boxes or suitcases and want them inside the residential area. Choose a self-storage unit from about 8 to 10 medium cartons upwards, or when you need space for business stock and somewhere to pick orders.
How much does self-storage cost?
In 2027 a 1 m³ unit has a reference price of 873,000 – 965,000 (about US$34–37) VND per month for a standard unit and 1,136,000 – 1,256,000 (about US$44–49) VND per month for an air-conditioned unit, flexible plan, excluding VAT. See the exact price for your size.
How are locker prices calculated?
Lockers are priced by usage package, unlike units priced by cubic meter. Current rates are on the MT Eastmark City locker page, or you can request a free quote.
How do the flexible and 12-month plans differ?
The flexible plan is billed monthly; the 12-month plan is 15% cheaper than the flexible plan at every unit size.
How is self-storage different from shared-shelf storage?
Self-storage is your own locked unit with 24/7 access. With shared shelves, MyStorage collects goods from the address you give, keeps them on shared shelves and brings them back when needed.
How much does a 1 m³ unit hold?
A 1 m³ unit holds about 8 to 10 medium cartons; 2 m³ holds about 15 to 20 cartons or 2 to 3 large suitcases; 5 m³ holds about 40 to 50 cartons.
How does an air-conditioned unit differ from a standard one?
An air-conditioned unit keeps a steadier environment for items that mould or react to heat, such as clothes, wood, documents and electronics. It costs about 30% to 40% more for self-storage and 18% to 25% more for shared shelves than a standard unit of the same size.
What can I store?
Most commonly household belongings, office documents, seasonal items and online-shop stock. Goods that need freezing below 0 °C or fresh food do not suit a standard unit; if you are not sure, ask MyStorage before booking.
What if my business needs a warehouse of several hundred square meters?
MyStorage does not rent large warehouse space. For that, collect at least three quotes from industrial warehouse operators in the area and compare location, lease term, floor load and technical requirements such as three-phase power.
How do I estimate a unit size and book?
Use the AI Size Estimator tool to estimate volume from photos of your belongings, then choose the service and size in Check Price to see the price and book. A breakdown of each charge is in storage rental costs in Ho Chi Minh City by district. How to estimate volume from photos of your belongings is explained in how to calculate storage size with AI.
