How much a storage provider charges depends on a bunch of things. Here’s a quick recap of the main factors:
The amount of your furniture: With self-storage, you’re basically paying for empty space so the more space you need, the more you should expect to pay.
Contract length: Many facilities offer discounted prices for either short- or long-term leases. Ask around and see what providers are offering what deals.
Packing materials: To keep your valuables protected from dust, moisture and other environmental nasties, you might want to look at quality storage materials. If you don’t have furniture covers, boxes, sheets and so on, storage providers will often sell or rent them to you.
Transportation: Unless you’re exceptionally lucky, your self-storage unit won’t be right next to your home so you’ve got to think about how you get your belongings there. Professional movers will do the best job but will cost you between £20 and £50 per hour.
