I would recommend 3rd party cloud storage like Google Drive (available from the App Store for free, 15 GBs). You can then upload any files and access them from any device. I use it and it works well. Regarding saving space, as Brenden mentioned Pages files are not large unless they contain a lot of graphics. Plain documents take little space. Photos, Music, and other media consume the most of the storage.
