    Why use storage for this

    The benefits, in plain English

    Real reasons people in your shoes use self storage — not generic marketing talk.

    Bridge the gap

    Cover the awkward window between completion dates with flexible weekly or monthly rolling contracts.

    Declutter to sell

    Estate agents recommend clearing rooms before viewings — storage helps your home show at its best.

    Climate-controlled, secure units protect electronics, art and antiques during the chaos of a move.

    Stage renovations

    Move furniture out of the way while you decorate, refit a kitchen or rip up flooring.

    What to know

    The practical detail, before you book

    Honest answers to the questions movers, businesses and families ask us most.

    How much storage space do I need when moving home?

    As a rough guide: a 1-bedroom flat fits comfortably in a 50 sq ft unit, a 2-3 bedroom house typically needs 75-100 sq ft, and a 4+ bedroom property usually needs 150 sq ft or more. Our size guide on the homepage gives concrete comparisons (boxes, garages, Luton vans) so you can choose with confidence.

    How long should I rent storage for?

    Most UK facilities run on monthly rolling contracts with no long tie-ins. If your move is delayed, you simply pay for another month. If completion comes through early, most providers only charge you for time used. We'd recommend booking with a small buffer rather than cutting it fine.

    What does moving storage cost?

    Expect £80-£180/month for a typical 2-3 bedroom house in most of the UK, rising in central London. Many facilities offer 50% off the first month or free van hire for new movers — check the offers field on each listing.

    Should I use a removals company or self storage?

    They're complementary. Removals firms shift your belongings; self storage is where they live in between. Some removals companies bundle short-term storage, but standalone self storage is almost always cheaper for stays over two weeks and gives you direct access whenever you want it.
