Pricing for Self Storage

I couldn't see the best place to post this so apologies if I'm completely wrong.

I'm wondering if anyone would be willing to share the price they pay per month for their self storage, which company they use and the size of their unit.

    What does this have to do with buying and selling property?

    it will come down to your location, size needed and type of unit - indoors/outdoor container etc

    google self storage in my area, and get a few quotes - only way you will get a proper estimate for your needs

    what use is such info to you? It would be out of context and thus worthless

    If it's short term check Shurgard, they offer first month for £1 (in some of their facilities) and you can cancel the contract anytime. Or at least that's what their ad says.
  • 20sqft unit (c. 4ft x 5ft wide and 7ft high) = £51/month

    it's located near London (Lakeside). Couldn't get anything in London itself as it was stupidly expensive.
