Most of us

have no idea how much storage space we will need for our items so we have put this rough guide together to help you.

We always recommend where possible, that you visit prior to move in and discuss your needs. You can see the different room sizes, you’ll get good advice and a feel for what is right for your storage needs.

There’s no need to worry, even on the day you arrive with all your belongings, we generally have plenty of options, just in case there is a little extra that you realised!
