How do we compare with conventional self storage?

It can be difficult to compare our storage services with traditional self storage providers due to differing business models. We offer services they are unable to, and vice versa.

Typically, conventional self storage providers are targeting customers seeking larger storage spaces. Conversely, Stowable focuses on providing unparalleled convenance and flexiblity, but on a smaller scale. Check out the storage comparison below – and we deliver and collect from your doorstep 👇

Big Yellow Storage – 27ft³ (9ft unit), 12 months (paid monthly), storage total cost including all current discounts = £565.80*

Stowable – 27.85ft³ (5 Extra Large Boxes and a Large Box), 12 months, storage total cost including all current discounts & returns = £555.35

If you need a lot of space or have large items to store, traditional self-storage may be the right solution. For everything else, you’ll be amazed at what Stowable can offer!
