Short term storage with flexible contracts

Self storage gives you extra space for as long as you require. Moving, renovating or just sorting through items you don't use becomes easy - your items are stored securely and collected when you need them. Keep valuable or treasured possessions without having to make a hasty decision about them simply because you don't have enough space at home.

Short term storage space for as long as you need it

Rent a storage unit for a short time period without making a long-term commitment. Unlike a traditional tenancy agreement, it does not tie you to a lengthy fixed term. You rent your storage unit by the month and end the rental when you no longer need it.

All standard contracts run on a monthly basis and renew automatically. After the first month, there is no minimum contract term. If you wish to cancel, you simply need to let us know that you are leaving no later than 15 days before the end of your current rental period.

When is temporary storage useful?

Temporary storage can help in many different situations. Whether you are moving home, renovating or spending an extended period abroad, you can store your belongings temporarily until you need them again.

  • Moving home and bridging the gap between two properties: You have already moved out of your current rented or owned property but cannot yet move into your new home. A temporary storage unit allows you to keep your belongings safe during this interim period without relying on spare space belonging to friends or family.

  • Renovation work: Are you having your kitchen renovated, your living room painted or an entire room refurbished? Temporarily storing your furniture creates more room in which to work and protects your belongings from dust and damage.

  • An extended trip or time abroad: Are you going abroad for several months for work, study or a personal project? Temporary storage lets you keep your possessions safely until you return, without having to part with items that matter to you.

  • Decluttering or rearranging your home: Would you like to create more space at home without immediately getting rid of your belongings? Temporary storage gives you time to decide at your own pace what you would like to keep.

  • Selling a property: Are you putting your home on the market and looking to create more space and a calmer appearance for viewings? A temporary storage unit allows you to store surplus furniture and other belongings elsewhere and present your home neatly.

How do the flexible contracts at MijnSafestore work?

Our storage contracts are designed to be simple and flexible. Here is how they work in practice:

  • Monthly billing: The minimum billing period is one month, or 30 days. You can begin using your storage unit during the first week. After the first month, your contract automatically renews in successive 30-day periods.

  • Notice period: Would you like to end your contract? Let us know no later than 15 days before the end of your current billing period. You can notify your storage facility by email or hand in a written notice with your proposed move out date to reception.

  • Contracts for fewer than 30 days: Short-term contracts are available if you need storage for fewer than 30 days. Contact your storage facility for more information.

  • No hidden fees: Your monthly charge includes access to your storage unit, security at the facility and insurance for your belongings. There are no additional move-in or move-out fees.

If you think you may need storage for a longer duration, you can agree to a fixed term where you will use your storage unit. This option may qualify you for a discounted rate.

How much does temporary storage cost in the Netherlands?

The cost of a temporary storage depends primarily on three factors: the size of the unit, the location of the storage facility and the rental period.

​Storage-unit size:

The larger the unit, the higher the monthly rate. A small unit of 1 to 2 m² is suitable for a few boxes or seasonal items. A unit of 5 to 10 m² may be suitable if, for example, you need to store a larger proportion of your household belongings temporarily.

​Storage location:

Location can affect the price. If you are flexible about which storage facility you use, it is worth comparing different locations and considering their accessibility and distance from your home or workplace.

​Rental period:

Our rolling monthly contracts offer considerable flexibility without a long-term commitment. Lower rates may be available for contracts with a fixed term agreed in advance. Promotional offers may also be available from time to time.
