Each sealed wooden unit gives you 6.3 m³ of space at R850 per month. Here are typical 1, 2 and 3 unit loads — and the quote calculator works out your exact number of units from your own item list.
Every PickupStorage unit is the same size: 6.3 m³ of sealed wooden storage inside our managed warehouse. You book whole units — one unit is the minimum — and your monthly price is simply the number of units × R850.
As a rough guide, R850 per 6.3 m³ unit works out to approximately R135 per m³ per month — a space-guide comparison only. Storage is billed per whole unit, not by the individual cubic metre.
One unit typically holds 1 to 1.5 rooms' worth of furniture and boxes. You don't need to guess: add your items to the quote calculator and it adds up the volume, rounds up to whole units, and shows your monthly total instantly. Start with the units you're sure about — you can always add another unit later if you run out of space.

Get my unit countHalf-empty boxes waste space and crush easily. Pack them full with soft items like linen and towels filling the gaps.
Bed bases, dining tables and wardrobes take far less space when dismantled. Keep screws in a labelled bag taped to the largest piece.
Leave light items inside chest drawers, fridges and washing machines — the space is already there, so use it.
We pack each unit floor to ceiling. Upright couches and mattresses free up floor space for boxes and small furniture.
Our team packs units properly: heavy items and solid furniture at the bottom, boxes stacked up top. Every unit is inventory-listed so nothing gets lost.
