020 3260 1600London's extreme property prices force compromises. The average London flat measures just 46 square metres (495 sq ft, the smallest in the UK. When you're paying £2,000+/month rent for a one-bedroom in Zone 2, every square foot counts. Storage offers the extra space without the premium of rent.
Common reasons London residents rent storage:
The 10×10 unit (100 sq ft) is most popular—fits a one-bedroom flat with room to access items. Currently averages £325/month across London, with cheapest options at £260/month. That's your bottom line for what "cheap" actually means in London.
Location matters differently in London than elsewhere. A storage facility 3 miles away in traffic can mean 45 minutes on the North Circular. Choose a location where you'll actually use storage:
The best value typically sits in outer London boroughs—Tottenham, Alperton, Mitcham, Eltham. Lower land prices mean lower rents. Our postcode search shows you the best prices within your desired travel distance.
Central London (Zones 1-2): Premium pricing but unbeatable convenience. Facilities in Bloomsbury, Kennington, Kings Cross, Camden, Chelsea average £350-450/month for 10×10 units. Worth it if you're car-free and need frequent access via tube.
North London: Finchley, Tottenham, Neasden, Hornsey offer better value—£280-350/month for 10×10s. Good access via North Circular and A1. Popular with families moving between North London properties.
South London: Balham, Wandsworth, Streatham, Norbury provide competitive pricing (£260-320/month) with excellent transport links. Ideal for South London residents avoiding cross-river journeys.
East London: Bow, Stratford, Charlton, Barking offer some of London's cheapest storage—£240-300/month for 10×10 units. Rapidly improving transport infrastructure makes these increasingly attractive.
West London: Acton, Chiswick, Richmond balance quality and price (£300-380/month). Popular with professionals and families in West London postcodes who want nearby storage without central London premiums.
London offers two main storage types. Traditional indoor facilities (Big Yellow, Shurgard, Access) These facilities provide traditional units inside secure buildings—better for furniture, electronics, documents. Container storage (Bloc, some independent operators) uses shipping containers in secure yards—cheaper but are more at risk of temperature exposure.
Indoor units average £325/month for 10×10 spaces. Container storage runs £140-200/month for equivalent space. Trade-off: containers experience temperature swings but work fine for boxes, tools, garden furniture, sports equipment.
Self-access facilities let you visit anytime (or during access hours) with your own key or code. You load/unload yourself. Full-service providers (Stored, easyStorage) collect items from your home, store them in their warehouse, and return them when needed. This service comes at a premium, but convenient if you're car-free or storing just a few items.
Self-access: £260-450/month depending on location and size. Full-service: From £89/month but typically £150-250 for comparable storage volume.
Prices as of November 2025 across 82 London facilities:
10 sq ft (small locker): From £20/month | Fits suitcases, boxes, student storage between terms
25 sq ft (large cupboard): From £89/month | Small business inventory, seasonal items, archive boxes
50 sq ft (walk-in wardrobe): From £135/month | Furniture from one room, small flat contents, business stock
100 sq ft / 10×10 (single garage): Average £325/month, from £260/month | One-bedroom flat contents - Most popular
200 sq ft / 10×20 (double garage): Average £666/month | Two-bedroom house, large flat, business inventory
Pro Tip: Always be sure to ask about any additional fees and whether the total monthly cost includes VAT.
London parking costs £200-400/month for a single space in central areas. Vehicle storage offers cheaper alternatives, especially for cars you don't use daily, classic cars requiring secure storage, or caravans and boats.
Options available:
Outdoor vehicle storage: £100-180/month for standard parking in secure compounds. Basic security, full weather exposure. Fine for daily-use vehicles or older cars.
Covered vehicle storage: £180-280/month for covered parking protecting from weather. Recommended for classic cars, motorcycles, campervans. Prevents paint fade and rubber deterioration.
Indoor climate-controlled: £300+/month for classic cars and valuable vehicles. Full protection but expensive—only worth it for genuine collectors' vehicles.
Boat storage: Facilities near Thames, Essex coast, and Surrey offer secure boat storage from £150/month. Many boat owners store inland during winter, saving expensive marina fees.
Caravan storage: Secure compounds in outer London (Mitcham, Alperton, Wembley) offer caravan storage from £120/month. Much cheaper than keeping it on your drive and attracting council attention.
Pro Tip: Some standard storage units accommodate vehicles if you measure carefully. A 10×20 unit averaging £666/month might cost less than "dedicated vehicle storage" at the same facility. Worth comparing both options.
London's university students face unique storage challenges—expensive accommodation, frequent moves between halls and private rentals, summer breaks, study abroad programmes, and post-graduation gaps before permanent housing.
Major universities served: University College London (UCL), King's College London, Imperial College, London School of Economics (LSE), Queen Mary University, City University, Royal Holloway, plus dozens more across Greater London.
Small units (10-25 sq ft) run £20-89/month—affordable on student budgets. Many operators offer student discounts, flexible rental terms matching academic calendars, and free van hire for moving in/out. Some even provide group storage deals for students sharing costs.
Popular areas for student storage: Bloomsbury (UCL), Aldwych/Strand (King's College, LSE), South Kensington (Imperial), Mile End (Queen Mary), Camden, Kings Cross. Book early before summer break—May and June see highest demand and lowest availability.
UK storage facilities typically offer three access types:
Business hours (8am-6pm): Cheapest option, staff on-site for assistance. Works if you only need occasional weekday access.
Extended hours (6am-10pm): Most common, covers early morning and evening access. Suits most people's schedules.
24/7 access: Premium feature costing £15-30/month extra. Essential for shift workers, businesses needing overnight access, or overseas residents returning on odd-hour flights. Not worth premium if you're just storing furniture long-term.
Security standards across London facilities:
Big Yellow, Shurgard, and Access Self Storage maintain higher security standards. Budget operators sometimes skimp on individual alarms or monitoring. Worth paying £20-30/month extra for proper security if storing anything valuable.
London storage follows predictable demand cycles:
Peak season (April-September): House moves peak during the summer months, students need storage, and facilities charge 20-30% premiums. Availability drops and promotions disappear. If you're moving in July, book storage 3-4 weeks early.
Off-peak (October-March): Fewer moves, nervous facility managers, aggressive promotions. "50% off first 8 weeks" and "First month £1" offers appear everywhere. Same facility charging £350 in July might offer £280 with first month free in February—real savings.
Christmas and New Year bring short-term deals as facilities compete for remaining capacity. January sees deep discounts as demand stays low but operating costs continue.
Pro Tip: If moving house with completion in peak season, consider booking storage 2-3 months early during off-peak pricing, even if paying for empty space initially. The off-peak discount often exceeds the cost of extra months.
Everyone underestimates required space. You need room to walk inside, access items at the back, and reorganize as needed—not just theoretical volume calculations.
Realistic size guide:
Pro Tip: Visit facilities in person before booking online. Storage companies photograph units from corners with wide-angle lenses—they appear 30% larger than reality. Bring a tape measure, visualize your largest items (wardrobes, sofas, beds), add walkway space. Saves expensive upgrade fees later.
Big Yellow Self Storage: London's largest operator with 20+ facilities across all zones. Reliable, professional, good security. Premium pricing (£300-450/month for 10×10) but worth it for peace of mind. Regular "50% off first 8 weeks" promotions.
Shurgard Self Storage: International operator with extensive London coverage. Competitive pricing (£280-380/month), excellent facilities, strong security. Known for "£1 first month" promotions and flexible terms.
Access Self Storage: Growing operator with good South and West London coverage. Mid-range pricing (£260-350/month), decent facilities. Less central locations mean better value.
Attic Self Storage: Premium operator in select locations. Higher prices but excellent facilities and customer service. Popular with business users.
Independent Operators: Smaller operators often offer better pricing (£240-300/month) but variable quality. Worth investigating for long-term storage if security standards meet your needs.
