Reasons People Use Personal Storage

Home / Reasons People Use Personal Storage

Personal storage has become increasingly popular across the UK, and it’s easy to see why. Between smaller homes, busy lifestyles and the constant search for extra space, having a safe, flexible place to keep your belongings makes life a lot easier.

In this blog, we’ll take a look at the main reasons people use personal storage, and how it can simplify day-to-day life while keeping your possessions safe and organised.

Why People Use Personal Storage

Self storage isn’t just for those in the middle of a move. People use personal storage for a variety of practical and lifestyle reasons, from home renovations to seasonal storage and business needs.

With the number of people choosing this option growing year on year, it’s worth exploring why so many find it indispensable.

Moving Home or Relocating

One of the most common reasons people use personal storage is during the moving process. Moving to a new house can be stressful, with furniture, appliances and valuable items to think about.

A storage unit provides a practical storage solution, giving you time to organise everything, make moving day simpler, or to help you downsize.

With Wigwam, you can store your belongings safely for as long as you need, reducing the stress of moving home. Flexible storage durations mean you can take things at your own pace, and your furniture and valuables remain safe and secure throughout the process.

Home Renovation

Renovating a home is exciting, but it can also be chaotic. Personal storage helps protect furniture, appliances and seasonal items from dust, paint or accidental damage.

Extra space allows you to keep your belongings organised and out of harm’s way, giving you peace of mind while your home is transformed.

Decluttering and Freeing Up Space

Sometimes it’s not about moving or renovations but simply creating more room. Families, students and people working from home often use personal storage to declutter their homes, turning cramped spaces into comfortable, functional areas.

By storing items you don’t need every day, you can create extra space for a playroom or study. Working from home becomes much easier when the house isn’t overflowing with stuff you barely use.

Seasonal Storage and Safe Keeping of Valuables

Some possessions are only used at certain times of the year, like winter sports equipment or summer camping gear. Seasonal items and hobby equipment can all be safely kept in a secure unit, ensuring they remain in excellent condition.

Storing items off-site also keeps family heirlooms and other valuables safe and secure, giving you peace of mind without cluttering your home.

Business or Side Projects

Personal storage isn’t just for homes; it’s also ideal for business storage. Many small business owners or hobbyists use storage units to house inventory, documents or equipment without the cost of renting larger office or warehouse space.

I needed to organise a storage unit on a pretty quick turn around- thankfully having had one at the Alton site before they were able to do so.

Lenny called as soon as I emailed and was extremely helpful on making this process quick and easy so i could get into the unit the next day.

there was an issue with the app when i went to use the unit but i emailed Lenny and he rang back within 5 mins and managed to resolve the issue very quickly.

would recommend and thanks to Lenny for making the process smooth.

Decent website, helpful and rapid responses to queries. Took the time to do a guided tour via phone to help me determine the appropriate unit size. Fast and efficient onboarding and the facility is clean and looks reasonably secure. Other than that, it's a storage space that you can store things in. Reasonable costs. App does the job for opening the doors and stuff. V.Happy so far.

Wigwam self storage have proven very helpful when I couldn’t be around for moving out. They gave the removal company access and were transparent and responsive throughout the process of vacating, even when there were delays. I would like to mention Kasey from Cheltenham, who was very supportive start to finish from when I moved in to when I moved out. Thank you.

I can't fault Wigwam from the point of signing up to moving in, everything was smooth and hassle free. The security app for admission to the site is intuitive, and so user friendly. I have one of the smaller units at just 25 square feet, but it's surprising how much you can get in with ease. I've since got a lot more in freeing up space at home for things I only occasionally need.
Wigwam are highly recommended by me!

Absolutely ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I can’t recommend Wigwam Storage in Lincoln highly enough. From start to finish, the whole experience was fantastic. Every member of the team was incredibly helpful, friendly, and professional — nothing was too much trouble, and they genuinely went out of their way to make the process easy and stress-free.

The facility itself is excellent: clean, secure, well-maintained, and clearly run with a lot of care. It’s obvious they take real pride in what they do, and that gives you total peace of mind when storing your belongings.

If you’re looking for a reliable storage facility in Lincoln with an amazing team and top-quality facilities, Wigwam Storage is the place to go. I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again and will happily recommend them to anyone.

Fantastic experience from start to finish.
The signing up process was easy, and the service from the staff was speedy, friendly, helpful and professional.
The app used to access the premises was easy to use and gave added assurance of the security of my items.
Once inside the premises were modern, clean, well lit, and directions to the storage unit were clear and easy to follow…. Even the lift had step by step instructions!
All in all a fantastic company and storage facility.
Thank you!

12:27 12 Nov 25

We found ourselves in a fix when my mums purchase failed to complete on a Friday so could not move in a van full of her belongings, so needed a storage unit at zero notice large enough to fit a Luton van of contents. Wigwam were so understanding and helpful and arranged for the unit to be available so quickly - a real godsend! As we only needed it for a week they explained how to only pay for 2 weeks rather than the normal month- so much cheaper that keeping the hire van van for a further week - thank you!

Mark Blezard

16:59 11 Nov 25

So, self-storage in a city like Bath is like giving candy to a kid, everyone wants/needs it. But to have such a slick operation as Wigwam, and two amazing managers on site is incredible.

The customer service is second to none, and facilities utterly perfect.

11 out of 10.

Karen Mitchell

17:09 05 Nov 25

Everyone I spoke to before leasing my unit was incredibly friendly. I had a tour of the site via phone so I knew what to do and expect.

I was very impressed everything is via the app and that side of things is very responsive and I have had no issues so far.
They even play the radio in there.

Gergo Labancz

18:58 04 Nov 25

Absolutely fantastic service!!!
Holly was an absolute star, we were panicking as we were in the middle of our house moving and needed a quick storage area. Less then an hour after our first call we were already putting boxes to our Storage.
The site is nice and clean, the entry system is truly clever and makes the storage Access easy and quick.
Customer service is top notch 👌

Deborah Kirkpatrick

16:54 04 Nov 25

The telephone staff are very friendly and efficient, helped me when I set the alarm off (oops), they provide very good service both prior to renting a unit and during the rental period. They helped me decide on the right size unit by letting me access to view the various sizes and shapes.
They talked me through the entering and exiting the facility. Jess was outstanding dealing with all the paperwork quickly and me being forgetful and dim.
Thank you very much, hopefully I won't set any alarms off again

Many thanks to Selina and Sascha at Wigwam Self Storage Bath for the great service during a hectic period of house-moving and stuff-sorting. Highly recommended.

House Imagination

13:51 31 Oct 25

We have been extremely impressed by the high level of service from Sascha and Selina at Wigwam in Bath. Following a busy period delivering our public arts project, we urgently needed a small space to store items and within one hour we had agreed a competitive cost and had keyless access via the app. Very happy and would highly recommend.

Jam Daniel

09:50 31 Oct 25

Staff were friendly and professional both on the phone and via email. No pressure, straight-forward process and easy to access.

Dominique Mitchell

22:41 30 Oct 25

Great facility! Easy to access, good instructions. The outstanding service was from the team at the head office, they were incredibly responsive, helpful and personable. You made a stressful situation SO much better, thank you. Still using the storage but know that the company is super flexible if I need to shorten or make it longer.
My one suggestion is to extend the timers on the doors when entering the storage unit as sometimes it enough time to unload big deliveries onto a trolley and get back to the unit building before the doors close!
All in all, AMAZING company! Couldn’t recommend more :)

Nina Julian

13:53 29 Oct 25

Great experience from the get go. Easy to book. Staff are on the ball. Great communication. Facilities easy to access via app. Staff on hand if needed just give them a call. Highly recommend.

I enquired about a unit a few weeks ago and was helped by a lovely young lady called Selina. She showed me the units and gave me all the info I needed and followed up on email to make sure I had all the info. I also had some dealings with Sasha and she was equally as helpful. I ended up not needing the unit but their amazing service couldnt go unrecognised. Wigwam are lucky to have such a dedicated professional employees. They were a pleasure to deal with and behave in a way that you'd think they owned the business. Thanks Selina and Sasha for restoring my faith in customer service.

I enquired about a space in Bath a few weeks ago but was uncertain if I'd need it. I was helped by a lovely young lady called Selina. She went out of her way to give me info and showed me around the facillity. I didnt end up taking the unit but I had to write this because such service is rare nowadays. My sister has a unit at Wigwam and also raves abut the service.

The whole experience was excellent.
TheWigwam staff saw the shipment into the storage unit for us and made it all as simple as is possible when moving home and countries at the same time.

Wigwam storage units in Lincoln are fantastic. From the first contact to ask about the storage to now 5 months later it has been exceptional. The price is very good. I am happy that my items are safe.
The units are easy to access, they are spacious and clean. I have a lot of camping equipment plus all my Xmas decorations (I have a lot) in the winter we will also be storing our hot tub. We also have lots of stuff that was the children’s when they were growing up. It has given us the spare room back at the house.
Staff are always polite friendly and very helpful.

Excellent new storage facility in Alton. Clean and well organised. All opened up using an app so no staff on site so it’s very quiet. I cannot praise the office staff highly enough. I made an error of judgment when I chose the size of unit I thought I required. After nearly filling the original unit I realised my mistake and within half an hour I was allocated a bigger unit down the hall which made relocating to it much easier. As it was also a Friday night when I realised my error they allowed me to have the two units until the next day to give me time to swap over. The staff were so helpful and made a stressful day much easier than it could have been.

All staff have been extremely helpful in explaining all the options to us. Very good security, very convenient to be able to use our own code and get in at any time to suit us. Very good to receive a monthly e-mail regarding the invoice. Would definitely recommend to anyone who is thinking about storage.

I had an outstanding experience with Wigwam Storage. The staff were incredibly helpful and guided me through the entire process to access my unit with ease. The unit itself was very clean, and the whole process was seamless from start to finish. I also felt reassured by the strong security measures in place. Highly recommend for anyone needing reliable and friendly storage services.

Wigwam offer a superb variety of storage solutions with robust security and monitoring systems, giving you the confidence that your goods will be stored in very safe hands. Access is made very easy with personalised codes allowing you to come and go at your convenience. The team on the front desk are also all extremely friendly and helpful. We could not recommend Wigwam Storage more highly.

Well organised. Not pushy. They made some helpful suggestions when I realised I'd not booked enough space. They gave me all the options. Were fair with the costs. Transferred the service agreement and had the paperwork ready when I came back with the next load. What a nice bunch of people to deal

Great location, great facility and great service. What’s not to like? Price? It’s competitive.

App worked smoothly - site is clean and modern, unit was sensibly designed and easy to get to. Only tiny complaint is our unit was about as far away from the front door as it can be (albeit without having to use the lift) but I guess someone has to be :-) The roller doors on the 100 sq ft unit we have were beautifully balanced such that you'll want to be careful you don't use too much force when opening and closing them. The trolleys might take a little bit of time to get used to the rear-wheel steering particularly when heavy loaded but if you're used to somewhere like B&Q you'll be fine.
For full disclosure, we've only just rented the unit and filled it up, but the experience so far has been great. Response times to emails and helpfulness of staff has been excellent.

Trevor Mott

Everything ran smoothly, the unit was perfect for my requirements, the staff were incredibly helpful....and then when I left, my deposit still has not been returned 3 weeks later. There is no excuse for the return of deposits to take this long and I am advised it can take up to 4 weeks. That is why this not a 5 star review

Nicola Cooper

Excellent experience!
We needed sudden storage after selling our parents’ house. I stopped in at the Bromsgrove branch and found it unmanned, (which I now know is normal).
I rang the number and spoke to an extremely helpful employee who offered me immediate, remote access to the building and let me see inside two different sized units.
After that, the set up was extremely quick!
I applied in the morning and was able to drop stuff off the same day. Everything is activated by an app on your phone but staff can be contacted by phone if needed.
On my second visit (after lots of rain) I did notice a pool of water not far from my unit. I rang up and by next day it had been sorted. No recurrence.
I am really happy with the unit and the excellent service.

I needed local storage so my friend recommended this place ! I went along to look round I just can not believe how much space they can offer you all dry clean well lit and importantly safe!! They think of everything there trolleys lifts and electric tail
Lift so you don’t have to struggle in and out with your things lots of parking too
The best thing that made me hire space is the ladies in reception they were so accommodating and helpful so thank you

I highly recommend Store Away.
I hired storage for my daughter to store all her Uni belongings while she was away for the summer.
Sasha provided excellent friendly service. Always at hand to help with any questions from the beginning to the end of our contract.
Great value for money.
Thank you Sascha.

Used StoreAway to store my stuff over the summer because I was moving off university campus. It was really easy to use, simple to find, the staff was really friendly, they were always quick to respond to my emails, and the price was very reasonable for the service provided.

Very impressed with this brand new storage facility. The security and access is very impressive and it’s so easy using my mobile to open the gates and doors. I spoke with Helen and Sarah who were brilliant and made moving in my stuff very simple. Well done Wigwam, I am glad you've opened in Alton.

I had the pleasure of arranging my storage needs through Helen.

Helen was efficient, proactive, enthusiastic, engaging and more importantly had a great sense of humour.

You could not ask more of a person or company.

Well taken by surprise just how good this experience was. The app for access works perfectly every thing is like new and excellent condition. When you enter the storage main door there’s all types of trolleys pallet trucks etc to help you get to your unit.

Highly recommend this company

Anita Bennett

First time using a storage unit and was bit apprehensive but the staff at Wigwam storage are so friendly and helpful that they made everything very easy. The storage unit was easy to find and the app easy to use and any problems there was always someone on the other end of the phone to help. The unit was clean and tidy and it was nice to have music in the background. Would definitely recommend.

Leslie Ifeanyi Ehirim

18:47 23 Aug 23

Whoa, where do I start from, the guys there deserve more than a 5-star, pleasant, patient, good listeners, etc. Having used other storage this is the 1st I've experienced where the guys are happy to get involved with your stuff. The app allows you to have access which for me was way better than the traditional locks. I got there needing a big size but the guys advised that I get my stuff in 1st to see the best size (they were rather concerned about what suits my needs rather than the money) Luke and Kacey you guys are rock starts. Please keep this up. I'll recommend StoreAway Self Storage any day anytime.

Jennifer Wilson

00:10 21 Aug 23

All the staff were very responsive and didn't mind answering several email questions before the start of the contract. The app that allows access was super easy to use and the facilities are clean and in excellent condition. Rolling carts made move-in and move-out of our items so much easier.

Vikki Jones

13:57 14 Jun 23

What a fantastic setup! All members of staff are incredibly professional with a friendly manner and provide a brilliant service.The storage unit is ultra secure, but easy to navigate once set up. We were very impressed with everything from initial enquiry through to the end of our contract.
Would definitely recommend.

Wigwam have generously donated a unit to The Basement Project for our food bank. It is very high tech and access is managed through an app which is simple to use. Jos and the team have been really supportive and are easy to contact if we have any questions.

Dani Di Cio

13:26 03 Mar 23

I cannot recommend StoreAway enough for all your storage needs. The customer service I have received has just been fantastic. Luke is so helpful, friendly and professional. As are all the other staff I have met. Nothing is too much trouble. Not only is it conveniently located in the centre of town it’s so easy to access as you have an app on your phone so no faff with padlocks etc. Extremely competitive prices. Thank you so much Luke & all your team for making it such an easy process & for the incredible service. Dani

Let down by an online delivered van hire hours before we needed it (Nationwide) - had a ring round and discovered Wigwam also did van rental and they were closer to us. They were so helpful - quick, efficient and professional and did what they said. They saved our home move in the cold and snow. Couldn't have been happier with service - and patience even after we rang back and said - are you sure it will be there tomorrow when we arrive? . Would highly recommend.

Our 40ft international container 'off loaded' with no problems. Wigwam helped with a storage unit they knew would be the correct size! We had the unit for 6 months as we slowly moved things to our new home. I always felt safe, Wigwam is very clean and well lit. Most importantly EVERYONE at Wigwam were very professional, helpful, knowledgeable and understanding. They were even able to downsize my unit to save me money as I made progress. I would use them again for certain. My unit was upstairs and the huge easy to use goods lift made it super quick to access the units upstairs. I took out insurance which was flexible depending on my progress. The picture is of my smaller unit at the end once empty.

Rachel Munday

16:24 20 Dec 19

Very efficient and friendly service for great storage spaces at a competitive price. Guided through carefully at the start to make sure we got the right sized space for our needs and for our budget. Really supported through the "moving in" process & beyond. Would definitely recommend to friends and family needing storage but also extremely professional set up for small or independent business needs.
