To determine which storage locker offers a better price, we need to calculate the monthly cost of locker B, which rents for $2.13 per week. Since there are 4 weeks in a month, that means locker B costs per month. Now, we can see the costs:

To find out which one is better, we can compare these two prices directly. Locker B, at $8.52 per month, is cheaper than locker A as long as . This indicates that if the variables and are low enough, locker A can be a good deal, but generally, locker B is the winner here for typical values.

Now, when considering storage options, think about how often you’ll access your items. If it’s frequent and you need convenience, a more centrally located, possibly pricier locker might save you vehicle and time costs in the long run! On the other hand, if the items can remain semi-untouched, save those bucks with locker B!
