How much does storage space cost?

Tips for avoiding hidden costs

How much does storage space cost?

When renting storage space, it’s important not only to look at the rental price but also at any additional costs. Many providers have hidden fees such as mandatory insurance, price increases for existing tenants or high ceilings that limit the usable space. At Eurobox Self Storage we aim for transparency and give you an overview of what storage space really costs.

The Basics: What influences the cost of storage space?

The price of storage space depends on various factors such as location, size and the length of the rental period. Examples of factors that can affect costs are:

Location: Storage units in cities like Haarlem or Rotterdam are often more expensive due to high demand.
Size: A small 3 m³ unit is naturally cheaper than a 30 m³ space or larger. If there are limited size options, you may end up paying for space you don’t need because a suitable unit isn’t available.
Rental period: Can you cancel mid-term or do you pay by the full month?

At Eurobox Self Storage we offer more than 30 different unit sizes, so you’ll always find a tailor-made option without paying for unused space.

What storage space costs can you expect?

Many storage companies advertise low starting prices but then charge extra fees. Think of compulsory insurance or administrative fees.

At Eurobox Self Storage we use an all-inclusive pricing model: the rental price includes insurance with no hidden costs.

Below we explain some common fees:

Mandatory Insurance and Extra Fees

With some providers it is mandatory to take out insurance through their own partner. These costs can amount to €20 per month. At Eurobox Self Storage insurance is always included in the price. This way you know exactly where you stand from the outset.

Price Increases for Existing Customers

Many storage companies raise their rates several times a year for existing customers. Be sure to read the small print carefully! A rent increase of 20–30% is not uncommon. This can, of course, be an unpleasant surprise if you need the storage unit for a longer period. That is why our costs remain transparent, and you will always be informed in advance of any changes, which will only be applied once a year.

How to Compare Storage Providers?

Comparing storage space can be challenging due to different pricing structures and levels of quality. Here are some tips for making a fair comparison:

  • Watch out for hidden costs: Ask about additional charges such as compulsory insurance, administrative fees or deposits.
  • Look at the height of the storage unit: Many providers in Haarlem and other cities offer a height of 3.5 metres. Although this seems spacious, you often pay for unused vertical space.
  • Check the security: Is the storage unit well protected with cameras, alarm systems and access control?
  • At Eurobox Self Storage we offer storage units with a standard height of 3 metres, which is perfect for practical use. We also have extensive security measures, including CCTV; every area of our premises and every unit has its own intruder alarm.

Flexible Storage Options for Private Individuals and Businesses

At Eurobox Self Storage we cater to both private and business customers, including e-commerce companies. For businesses we offer extra services such as:

  • Free size swaps: Ideal for fluctuations in stock.
  • Parcel and pallet reception: We accept your deliveries, so you can focus on your business.

Short-Term Storage or Long-Term Rental?

At Eurobox Self Storage you can choose short or long rental periods. This means you are flexible and only pay for the time you actually need the storage space. Our customers value this flexibility, especially during moves or seasonal peaks.
