University of Surrey Summer storage ideas?

I'm looking to put my items in storage over the summer, but unsure which company to pick. There are several, including Urban Spaceman, Lovespace, Spaceways, and Student storage box, among others. Do any students who have used these companies before have recommendations on which to pick?

Currently looking too! I've used Door2Door Student Storage before and they were very good, the people who collected my stuff were really sweet and I got all my stuff back in one piece. They were recommended by the receptionist at halls in first year, so would deffo recommend them. I'll either go with them again or possibly sevenseas (if I'm taking my stuff abroad, just waiting on life decisions) but I've not used them before so unsure. So if anyone has some experiences with them that would be amazing 😅

Also, would highly recommend checking out this site to compare student storage companies- student storage reviews It's been a lifesaver, some student storage companies charge a fortune when you want your stuff back! 😣

Would defo not recommend Lovespace ☹️ I had a bad experience with them where a lot of my valuables were delivered completely shattered; both their collection and delivery were delayed by more than 3 days too.

Lovespace are the cheapest of all them as you can use your own boxes and packing materials. Their return charges are pretty reasonable as well, look out for the small print. A lot of companies seem well priced and first but it's all in the return fees
