storages

Places for belongings

Storages is the plural of storage, referring to multiple instances of space or capacity for keeping things: The building has separate storages for each tenant.

The word appears in technical contexts—data storages, cold storages—but in everyday speech, storage usually serves for both singular and plural concepts.
