Managed Warehouse Storage in Cape Town

PickupStorage is a door-to-door managed warehouse storage service. We collect your belongings, transport them to our Cape Town warehouse, label and inventory each item, and store them safely until you request them back.

How managed warehouse storage works

Unlike traditional self-storage, you don't arrange your own transport or pack a unit yourself. We handle the entire process — from collection at your door to storage inside our managed warehouse. You book whole 6.3 m³ units, based on the items you're storing, at R850 per unit per month.

  • Door-to-door collection from your home, office or business
  • Careful labelling and inventory of every item
  • Secure storage inside our managed Cape Town warehouse
  • Return delivery on request

Collection from the customer

Our team arrives at your address at the scheduled time, carefully handles your items, and loads them for transport. Fragile and awkward items are wrapped and protected before being moved.

Labelling and inventory

Every item or box is labelled and recorded against your account, so we can locate and return exactly what you asked for — no guesswork.

Sealed storage units inside the warehouse

Your belongings are packed into sealed wooden storage units, each holding 6.3 m³ at R850 per month. The units are labelled and stacked inside a controlled-access warehouse. Customers do not access the warehouse directly — this keeps the space secure and organised at all times.

Controlled access and security

The warehouse operates on controlled, supervised access. Restricted-entry access controls and staff-supervised handling protect your belongings while they're in our care.

How items are organised

Items are stored on shelving, with fragile and heavy items handled and placed appropriately. Labelled archive boxes and furniture are kept in easy-to-retrieve positions where possible.

Monthly unit-based pricing

Storage is billed at R850 per unit per month, with each unit giving you 6.3 m³ of space (approximately R135/m³ as a space guide). You book whole units, one unit minimum, and only book as many as you need. Storage is payable monthly in advance, with no deposit and no long-term contract. 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.

Return delivery

Request your items via WhatsApp, phone or email and we schedule a return delivery to your chosen address in Cape Town.

Managed storage vs customer-access self-storage

Traditional self-storage requires you to rent an entire unit, hire a van, transport your items and pack the unit yourself. Managed warehouse storage removes all of that — we do the transport, the packing and the storing. You just say what you need collected and when.

Cape Town areas we serve
