Safestore

Safestore is the UK's largest self storage operator by number of locations, with 139 facilities across England, Scotland, and Wales. The company rents climate-controlled storage units ranging from 10 sq ft to 600 sq ft or larger for both personal and business use. Storage sizes serve different needs: a 25 sq ft unit suits a studio flat, 75 sq ft holds contents of a two-bedroom house, and larger units accommodate business inventory and office relocations. The company operates in major cities including London, Birmingham, Bristol, Manchester, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Leeds, and Newcastle, among others.

Customers can book online, by phone, or in-store with no long-term commitment required and no deposit. The company offers introductory pricing options, currently 50% off for eight weeks or £1 for the first month at selected locations. Access is available seven days a week during store opening hours, which vary by location; many stores offer extended access hours. All facilities are monitored by 24-hour CCTV and secured with individual unit alarms. Safestore holds a 4.7 rating on Trustpilot and was named Multi-Site Operator Store of the Year at the 2025 FEDESSA European Self Storage Awards. The company was founded in 1998 and listed on the London Stock Exchange as Safestore Holdings PLC.
