Storage Plans Built Around Your
Actual Timeframe

Most storage providers push you into a single standard contract. We built our plans around how long people need space, from a fortnight during a renovation to several years for an expat relocation.

No Minimum Commitment Short-Term

Need space for just one or two weeks? There's no minimum term and no penalty for a short stay. Pay only for the time you use.

Better Rates the Longer You Commit

Move to a 6-month plan and save around 10%, or an annual plan and save around 20% versus paying month-to-month.

Switch Plans Anytime, No Penalty

Start short-term and your plans change? We adjust your rate to the right long-term discount going forward, with no re-signing and no hassle.

Same Security, Any Plan Length

24/7 CCTV, individually locked units, and insured storage apply equally for a one-month stay or a three-year one.

Whatever Your Timeframe, We Fit It

Real reasons our customers store short-term or long-term. See which sounds like you.

Learn more

Learn more

Short-Term vs Long-Term
Storage

Not sure which plan makes sense? Here's a straightforward way to think about it.

Under 3 Months: Go Short-Term Weekly or monthly billing, no minimum term, and no penalty for ending early. Best for temporary gaps and one-off situations.
3-6 Months: Either Works Monthly billing is flexible; the 6-month plan saves roughly 10% if you're fairly confident you'll need the space that long.
6+ Months: Go Long-Term The annual plan saves around 20% versus month-to-month, making it the clear choice for downsizing, expat storage, or business archives.
Not Sure? Start Short, Switch Later If you're not certain, start on a monthly plan. We'll move you to a long-term discount automatically if you decide to stay longer.

Why Dubai's Climate Changes What Good Storage
Looks Like

Summer heat and coastal humidity in Dubai are harder on stored belongings than most people expect, especially once a few months pass. It is worth knowing what to check before you book.

Un-Insulated Units Heat Up Fast

A storage unit without proper cover or shading can sit well above the outside air temperature for hours during Dubai's summer, which is hard on wooden furniture, electronics, and anything held together with glue or adhesive.

Humidity Swings Cause Warping and Mould

Dubai's humidity, especially between May and September, can warp wood, crack leather, and let mould develop on fabric or cardboard if items sit without any airflow or moisture control.

It Matters More the Longer You Store

A week or two in a standard unit rarely causes visible damage. Six months or a year is different, which is why our units are shaded and ventilated rather than left as open yard storage.

What to Ask Before You Book Anywhere

Ask whether a unit is shaded, covered, and ventilated, not just secure. For wooden furniture, instruments, electronics, or leather, that matters as much as the lock on the door. Our guide to climate-controlled self storage in Dubai covers this in more detail.

What You Can Store, and What We Cannot Accept

A quick guide so there are no surprises on drop-off day, on either a short-term or long-term plan.

Store With Confidence

Furniture, mattresses, boxed belongings, appliances, documents, seasonal items, and most household goods are accepted on both short and long term plans. Wrap upholstered and wooden pieces before drop-off using our packing and unpacking guide to protect against dust and scuffing.

Not Accepted in Any Unit

Gas cylinders, flammable liquids, and other hazardous materials cannot go into a standard self storage unit under Dubai's safety rules. Dubai Municipality's guidelines require filled LPG cylinders to be kept in a licensed, permitted facility, which rules out standard storage. The same applies to live plants, perishable food, and anything illegal to possess in the UAE.

Check With Us First

Pianos, artwork, antiques, and anything of high declared value can usually be stored, but call first so we can confirm the right unit and any extra protection needed. The same goes for business records or stock kept under our business storage Al Quoz plan.

What Our Storage Customers Say

Verified Google reviews from customers on both short and long term plans.

Short-Term

Our kitchen renovation ran three weeks and we just needed somewhere for the dining furniture. No contract, no fuss. Paid weekly and collected everything once the work was done.

Long-Term

We took a two-year posting back home and didn't want to sell our furniture. The annual plan worked out much cheaper than shipping everything, and it'll all be ready when we're back.

Started on the monthly plan not knowing how long I'd need it. Six months in, they switched me to the discounted long-term rate automatically, with no awkward renegotiation needed.

Short & Long Term Storage: Common Questions

Everything you need to know before choosing a plan.

We generally treat anything under 3 months as short term, and 6 months or longer as long term, with a flexible middle ground in between. You can start on a short-term plan and switch to a longer-term rate at any point if your needs change.
No. Short-term storage can be booked for as little as one week with no minimum commitment. Long-term plans of 6 or 12 months come with discounted rates but no penalty for adjusting later.
Yes. The 6-month plan typically saves around 10% versus paying month-to-month, and the annual plan saves around 20%, since we can plan facility space more efficiently for longer commitments.
Yes. If you start on a short-term or monthly plan and later decide to commit longer, we adjust your rate going forward to the appropriate long-term discount without any penalty or paperwork hassle.
Common short-term uses include storing furniture during a home renovation, bridging the gap between moving out of one home and into another, or storing belongings during a few weeks of travel.
Long-term storage suits expats storing belongings while relocating abroad temporarily, downsizing households with excess furniture, or businesses archiving documents and equipment over multiple years.
No. Dubai safety regulations do not allow flammable or hazardous materials such as filled gas cylinders in standard self storage units, and we are not permitted to accept them. We can point you toward a licensed hazardous goods facility if you need one.
It can, especially over several months. We use shaded, covered, and ventilated units rather than open yard storage to reduce heat and humidity exposure, which matters most for wooden furniture, electronics, and leather items on longer-term plans.

Long-Term Storage: Better Rates the Longer You Stay

For expats relocating abroad temporarily, households downsizing, or businesses archiving records and equipment, our 6-month and annual plans offer meaningfully discounted monthly rates, up to 20% cheaper than paying month-to-month.
