Self-Storage for Students During Summer
Summer break is an exciting time for students, but it often comes with the challenge of figuring out what to do with all their belongings. For those living in halls of residence or shared accommodation, there’s typically limited storage space, and moving everything back home can be a hassle—especially if home is far away. This is where self-storage can be a game-changer. Self-storage facilities like ours at Easy Store offer a convenient, affordable, and flexible solution that helps students keep their belongings safe and secure during the summer months. At Easy Store we have 3 secure 24/7-accessible self-storage facilities in Colchester, Ipswich, and Norwich.
What Do Students Need to Store?
During the academic year, students accumulate a variety of items that may not be needed over the summer but are essential when they return in the fall. Typical items that students often need to store include things such as:
- Textbooks and Study Materials: Textbooks can often be heavy and bulky, and these items can take up a lot of space and are better stored in a secure environment where they can be easily accessed when needed.
- Furniture and Dorm Essentials: Many students bring their own furniture, such as desks, chairs, and small appliances, to make their rooms feel more like home. Moving these items back and forth can be inconvenient, making self-storage a perfect solution.
- Seasonal Clothing: With the change in seasons, students often have an excess of clothing that isn’t needed during the summer months. Rather than packing it all up to take home, self-storage allows for these items to be securely kept until they’re needed again.
Benefits of Self-Storage for Students
Self-storage offers numerous benefits for students, making it a popular choice during the summer break:
- Secure Storage: Self-storage units like the ones at Easy Store are equipped with security measures such as CCTV, gated access, and individual locks, providing peace of mind that belongings are safe.
- Flexible Rental Terms: Unlike traditional rental agreements, self-storage offers flexible terms, allowing students to rent a unit for as long—or as short—a period as needed. This flexibility is ideal for students who may only need storage for a few months.
- Convenient Locations: Many self-storage facilities, like Easy Store, are located close to major campuses, making it easy for students to drop off and pick up their belongings without travelling far. At Easy Store we have 3 secure 24/7-accessible self-storage facilities in Colchester, Ipswich, and Norwich.
Extra Convenience with Packing and Removal Services
To make the process even easier, many self-storage facilities offer additional services that can greatly benefit students. One of these services is providing packing supplies; from boxes and bubble wrap to tape and labels, self-storage facilities often have everything students need to pack their items safely and securely. Additionally, for students who do not have access to a car or transport, some facilities offer removal assistance, making the move-in and move-out process much more convenient and stress-free. These extra services can save time and effort, ensuring a smooth transition during the summer break. Get in touch with us today to find out more on how we can help you.
