    Snappy Self Storage Cambridge

    Snappy Self Storage is a full-service, high-security self storage depot based just over an hour from central Cambridge – an ideal location for any volume of storage requirements within easy proximity of London, the M11, M25 and A10.

    The wider area of Cambridgeshire is only 49 miles from our depot, making it a popular destination for business clients, traders, and house movers relocating into or out of London, without the congestion so common in the city’s centre, and yet close enough for convenience.

    We provide 24/7 access and verified entry systems, with the assurance that your self storage container is safeguarded and reserved for your sole use for the duration of your hire period, whether long or short-term.

    Finding Storage Units Near Me in Cambridge

    Clients are welcome to pre-book their required self storage space in advance, enabling Cambridge businesses and those moving around Greater London the peace of mind that their private self storage unit is ready for the date of their move.

    Many of our Cambridge self storage clients reserve a unit to assist with projects such as:

    • Storing household items during the summer or winter, such as cold weather clothing, summer items like garden furniture and barbecues, or sports-based equipment including skis, snowboards, kayaks and canoes.
    • House sales and purchases or transactions related to business premises, storing equipment, records, computers and inventory throughout a transitional period.
    • Keeping display units, event-based equipment and other items in storage outside of summer shows, festivals, public events, Christmas markets and other events.
    • Storing valuables, collectables and artworks over the long term, ensuring items are within a weatherproof storage container and properly protected from damage, dust or theft.
    • Placing furniture, furnishings and belongings into storage when embarking on a property renovation or extension project, with easy access when your building is ready to move back into.

    Self storage is most popular during a house move or relocation or when businesses need a cost-efficient space to store assets and inventory, keeping these close to London without the need to transport anything back and forth unnecessarily.
