Self-storage in East London for Current University Students

Whether you’re currently a student or heading to university in September, secure storage containers can be a real help! In this week’s edition, our expert team discuss how self-storage in East London can be hugely beneficial for current university students. 

Do you have to move accommodation in summer? 

Most student accommodation doesn’t allow you to stay over the summer holiday period. This means you must cart all of your personal belongings back home with you for a few weeks, only to return with them at the start of the next term.  

Self-storage in East London can instantly alleviate this stress! Storing away your belongings means that you don’t have to worry about squeezing everything into the car or holding onto all your suitcases for dear life on the train, as you venture home for the holidays.  

Studying abroad 

Some universities offer the opportunity to study abroad for a year as part of the degree course. If you’re thinking about making the most of this chance to travel, it might not be ideal having to take your belongings back to your parent’s house. Using East London storage facilities means that you will have a secure space to hold your assets for the year, without limiting space for your parents.  

Sharing with friends 

If you live with other students, it may be helpful to share a storage container together for the summer period. This will keep costs to a minimum, prevent wasted space in an individually rented unit, and save you the hassle of transporting everything back home with you, multiple times. 

International students 

As an international student, you don’t want to bring all the possessions that you’ve accumulated at university back to your home country. This is very expensive, time-consuming and can be a long and drawn-out process. Save the stress and use self-storage in East London to hold your belongings over the holidays, whilst you’re enjoying time with family back home.  

At Store That, we use 24-hour CCTV surveillance and an in-house security team, meaning that even whilst you’re half-way across the world, you can rest easy knowing that your things are safe with us.   

Party decorations 

We all know that university students hold a few parties every now and then... and decorations for themed nights are a must! If your student flat is starting to overflow with party accessories and decorations or your wardrobe is full of fancy dress costumes, it might be worth considering using East London storage units to hold your celebratory items! As the yearly Halloween or birthday party approaches, you can simply access your unit to collect your belongings and get prepared for a wild night, as and when you need!
