How much does self storage cost?
There's no one-size price — but here's exactly what affects the cost, and how to pay for only what you use.
The honest answer: it depends on how much you store and how long for. There's no single price that fits everyone, which is why we send you a tailored quote rather than a price list.
With collection self storage you only pay for the space you actually use — not a fixed unit that's half empty — and there's no van to hire or fuel to buy, because we come to you. Below is what really drives the cost, and a few simple ways to keep yours down.
* Free collection and return applies when you store with us for three months or more.
What affects the cost of storage
How much space you need
A few boxes cost far less than a full house. With collection storage you only pay for the space you actually use, so you're never charged for a half-empty unit.
How long you store for
The longer you stay, the less you pay. Short stays cost a little more per month; longer stays bring the monthly rate down.
Getting your things there
Traditional self storage means hiring a van and paying for fuel. We collect from your door instead — free on stays of three months or more* — so that cost disappears.
The extras you choose
Optional things like extra packing materials, weekend collection, or contents cover add a little. We tell you up front, so nothing is a surprise.

How to pay less for storage
Declutter before you store
Sell, donate or recycle what you won't need. The less you store, the less you pay.
Store for a little longer
Because longer stays cost less per month, a slightly longer booking often works out cheaper overall.
Pack smart
Fill boxes fully and stack neatly so you use less space. Not sure how much you'll need? Try our size guide. Find your storage size.
Only cover what matters
Contents cover is optional and priced on what you're protecting — so you're not paying to insure things you don't need to.

Your monthly cost depends on the space you need and how long you stay — longer stays cost less per month. We give you a clear monthly price in your quote, with no add-ons and nothing to pay upfront. You only ever pay for the space you actually use.
