Why students use storage
Between June and September many students have nowhere to keep their things. Halls must be emptied, and the new house share is not ready until September. Storing a few boxes is often cheaper and easier than taking everything home and back.
How it works
- Book a collection date before you move out.
- Pack into boxes and bags, and label them.
- The company collects and stores your things over the summer.
- They deliver to your new address in September.
Tips
- Book early. June collection dates fill up fast in university towns.
- Share with housemates to save money.
- Do not store food, liquids or anything valuable you cannot replace.
