Personal Storage Units

Change is a constant in life. When it happens, STOREX personal storage is your reliable partner in dealing with said change.

When you are tackling a new move, a challenging renovation or a temporary downsizing, affordable extra space makes your life easier. Short-term household storage helps you store furniture between house moves. Long-term storage supports people who are travelling or living abroad. Whatever your situation, STOREX offers flexible personal storage to help keep your belongings organised and out of the way.

Get in touch with our helpful and professional staff and let’s discuss how we can help you through the challenging times.

Personal Storage Unit Sizes

We offer three practical unit size bands to match your needs:

• Small Units (16–50 sq ft): Suitable for boxes, luggage, seasonal belongings and selected smaller furniture. Capacity depends on the size and arrangement of your items.
• Medium Units (60–130 sq Ft): Suitable for furniture, moving boxes and belongings from several rooms. The space required depends on your furniture and how it's packed.
• Large Units (160–400 sq Ft): Designed for full house moves or substantial quantities of household belongings.

Need to change your size later? You can upsize or downsize your unit as your needs evolve, subject to availability. Just let our helpful team know and they will be happy to adjust or advise on personal self storage options that meet your requirements.

Clear Pricing

STOREX offers clear pricing with no security deposit required. Eligible customers can also get 50% off their first two months of storage.* Check the available unit prices and rental terms before booking. You can view and manage your account details on the STOREX app so you always stay informed and in control.

Why Choose STOREX for Personal Storage?

We design our facilities around your everyday routine. Here is how we make storing your belongings straightforward and hassle-free.

Helpful Extended Access Hours

Your schedule does not always fit into standard office hours. That's why selected unit sizes offer extended access from 5am to 11pm**, seven days a week.

This extended availability makes a huge difference during stressful moving days. For example, you can drop off household storage items during early starts before work or late evening visits. Busy working weeks are much easier to manage when you can visit on your own schedule. Check extended access availability when booking your storage for moving house online.

Modern and Secure Keyless Storage

No need to worry about carrying keys or remembering padlock combinations. The STOREX app acts as your digital key, letting you access your unit directly from your smartphone.

Our modern personal self storage options mean:

• Unlock doors directly from your smartphone
• No traditional keys or padlocks needed
• Quick digital ID verification for fast onboarding and simple online bookings
• Share digital access with trusted family members, friends or contractors helping with your move.

Climate-Controlled Storage

Furniture, clothing and other household belongings can be sensitive to changing storage conditions. Climate-controlled storage can help maintain a more consistent environment. Check which options are available at your preferred STOREX location.

Sustainable Facilities, Processes and Practices

We care about our environmental impact and actively plan our buildings and business with a greener future in mind. Our sites feature a selection of eco-friendly features including:

• A low-carbon approach to building design
• Green or blue roofs
• On-site EV charging stations
• Fossil-fuel-free infrastructure
• Solar/PV technology generating renewable energy
• Fully paperless booking and account management

Secure Space for Storage

Security at STOREX starts with knowing who is in the building. Everyone with access has verified their identity in the app, and units open with smart locks rather than padlocks that can be cut or copied. Our multi-layered security approach includes:

• Controlled building access at every entry point
• Smart locks on every unit, opened from the STOREX app
• 24/7 monitored CCTV across the building
• Digital identity verification

Easy Loading and Unloading

Moving heavy boxes is already hard enough. That's why we provide practically designed facilities and additional amenities to take the strain out of your move:

• Covered loading bays and on-site parking at every site
• Large goods lifts and wide corridors for furniture
• Free trolleys available at every store

These personal self storage features make moving large furniture and heavy items smooth and pain-free.

Convenient InPost Lockers

Every STOREX location has InPost lockers, making it convenient to collect or send parcels while visiting your unit. These lockers operate separately from STOREX storage services. Please note that STOREX staff do not receive or manage InPost parcel deliveries for customers.

Personal Self Storage for Moving, Decluttering and Everyday Life

Every life transition requires a slightly different approach to space. Here is how STOREX personal storage solutions for you fit into real everyday situations.

Temporary Storage When Moving Home

House moves don't always go to plan. Personal storage gives you somewhere to keep your belongings when moving dates don't line up.

Flexible Renovation Storage

Home improvement projects create dust and clutter. Moving furniture, electronics and boxes away from work areas helps protect them from dust and accidental damage. If renovations take longer than expected, flexible storage gives you more time.

When you're ready to move out, simply give seven days' notice through the STOREX App, subject to your rental terms. Paint, solvents, aerosols and fuel cannot be stored, so keep those at home.

Convenient Decluttering Storage

Keep the things you love safe without crowding your personal living space. Storing items you want to keep (but do not need daily) instantly opens up your home.

Affordable Downsize Storage Solutions

Moving to a smaller home takes careful planning. Temporary storage buys you precious time to decide what to keep, sell or donate without feeling rushed or being forced to sell or donate items that have sentimental value.

Seasonal Storage

Free up valuable wardrobe and garage space throughout the year. Our units are ideal personal storage options for:

• Holiday decorations
• Travel suitcases and trunks
• Sports equipment like bikes or skis
• Garden furniture and tools
• Seasonal clothing swaps

Long-Term Personal Storage

Life can also take people away from home for longer stretches. If you are travelling, studying abroad, relocating for work or temporarily living elsewhere, long-term storage keeps your belongings safe yet accessible for as long as you need, and you can share access with someone at home if anything needs collecting. Students have a dedicated page at storex.storage/household/student.
