Storage in Observatory, Cape Town
PickupStorage collects your belongings from Observatory and the surrounding Southern Suburbs, stores them in our managed Cape Town warehouse, and delivers them back when you need them. No van hire, no self-storage unit to visit.
Why Observatory households and students use door-to-door storage
Observatory is a student and family hub with shared houses and compact flats. Whether you're a student storing belongings over the holidays, a tenant between leases or a family decluttering, we collect, store and return on request.
Simple unit-based pricing
Storage is billed at R850 per 6.3 m³ unit per month — you book whole units, worked out from your item list so you never overbook. As a rough guide that's approximately R135/m³, though storage is billed at R850 per 6.3 m³ unit per month, not per cubic metre. Collection is a standard once-off fee of R600 from our Epping warehouse, shown on your quote before booking, and return delivery is quoted separately.
Insurance included
Your goods are covered under our OUTsurance policy while in our warehouse. No separate insurance to arrange.
