Storage FAQs (Bristol)
What size storage unit do I need for a 2-bed house?
Most 2-bed moves fit in a 75–100 sq ft unit, depending on how much you keep. As a rule of thumb, ~500 cu ft of contents ≈ 65–70 sq ft; round up to 75 sq ft for comfort, or 100 sq ft if you’ve lots of boxes or furniture.
How much is storage per month in Bristol?
Typical rates are around £1.80–£2.60 per sq ft per month. That’s ~£135–£195 for 75 sq ft, or £180–£260 for 100 sq ft. Climate control can add ~25%. Multi-month bookings often get 5–15% off.
Is climate-controlled storage worth it?
Choose climate control for instruments, antiques, electronics, fine clothing or long-term storage. For most household goods in a dry, ventilated unit, standard storage is usually fine.
Do I need storage insurance?
Many facilities require it. It protects against theft, fire, flood and other risks. A common guide is 0.5–1.0% of item value per month. Our estimator uses ~0.8% as a sensible default.
Can a removals company collect and store my items?
Yes. Many Bristol removers offer collection, storage and redelivery. It’s convenient for full-house moves and can beat couriering to self-storage when volumes are large.
