8 Best Self-Storage Companies in Singapore 2026 — Every Headline Discount Is a First-Months Teaser, So Here Is What Each One Costs Over a Year

Singapore's self-storage operators are all advertising big numbers this month — 50% off, two months free, three months free, 35% off — and almost none of them are discounts on what you will actually pay. They are teasers on the first two to four months of a lease that most people keep for a year. StorHub says the quiet part out loud on its own promotions page: its 'two months free' offer is labelled 'up to 16% off 12 months'. We compared all eight operators on the same basis — the effective discount over a 12-month rental — and the ranking changes completely. Work+Store's aircon offer (free 4 months plus 35% off, 55-65 sqft) is the deepest on the island but demands full prepayment; Extra Space's flat 30% is the only one that holds for the whole year, and it ends 31 August. Two operators on this list are advertising nothing at all right now, and one of them is the only chain here running robotic storage.

Every self-storage operator in Singapore is advertising a big number this month. 50% off. Two months free. Three months free. 35% off. Put them side by side and the market looks like a price war.

It is not. Almost every one of those numbers is a teaser applied to the opening months of a lease — and most self-storage rentals run far longer than the promotional window. The discount that decides what you actually pay is the one spread across the whole term, and on that basis the ranking is close to the reverse of what the posters suggest.

> Quick view: Work+Store is the deepest offer on the island once annualised (~57% off) but demands full prepayment · Extra Space's flat 30% is the only discount here that covers the entire prepaid term, and it ends 31 August 2026 · StorHub is the largest network at 18 facilities and rates its own best offer at "up to 16% off 12 months" · Storefriendly and Store Room are advertising nothing at all right now.

The one calculation nobody does

StorHub says the quiet part out loud. On its own promotions page, the offer headlined "Two months free" carries the subtitle "up to two months free (up to 16% off 12 months)". Two months out of twelve is 16.7%. That is the operator itself telling you that its headline is a sixth of a year, not a discount on a year.

Apply the same arithmetic to everything else:

  • "50% off two months" — two months at half price is one month saved. On a 12-month rental that is 8.3% off.
  • "50% off 4 months" (StorHub's Jurong East and Jurong West locker deal) — two months saved, so 16.7% off a year. Note the wording on their page: the normal monthly rate applies from the fifth month onwards.
  • "Up to 3 months free" (Urban Space) — 25% off a 12-month rental.
  • "Free 4 months + 35% off" (Work+Store) — four months at zero, eight months at 65%. That is 8 x 0.65 = 5.2 months of rent for a whole year, or roughly 57% off. The deepest offer on this list by a wide margin.
  • "30% off" (Extra Space) — applied to a prepaid term of 3 to 12 months, so it is simply 30% off, and it does not step back up.

The lesson is not that teaser rates are dishonest — they are clearly labelled if you read the small print. It is that you cannot compare a percentage against a number of free months without converting both first, and the two operators shouting the loudest numbers are not the two offering the most money off.

Three deadlines inside the next ten days

This matters more than usual right now, because three of the offers below close together:

  • Extra Space Asia's 30% — its "Moving Season. Get Extra." campaign states Offer Ends 31 August 2026, for both self storage and wine storage.
  • StorHub's two-months-free"Sign up by 31 August 2026 to enjoy this exclusive offer."
  • Lock+Store Ayer Rajah — the brand-new aircon units at 60% of the rate require you to pre-book by end August 2026.

After that, what remains is Work+Store's aircon promotion (no end date published), Lock+Store's Kaki Bukit three-month deal, Urban Space's three-months-free, and StorHub's other two offers.

Two operators are advertising nothing

Worth saying plainly, because their absence from every deal roundup gets read as an oversight rather than a fact. Storefriendly — eight facilities, all with 24/7 access, and the only operator here running robotic storage — has a promotions page in its main navigation, and as of 21 August 2026 it lists no active offer. Store Room has a Promotion page in its menu and the page is empty; what it offers instead is a standing lowest-price guarantee. Neither is a reason to strike them off, but if you are choosing between them and a discounted competitor, you are comparing rack rate against promotional rate, and you should ask both for a written quote before deciding.

StorHub — The Largest Network (18 Facilities), Lockers From S$25/Month, and the Chain That Publishes Its Own Effective Discount

StorHub introduced self-storage to Singapore in 2003 and is the **largest operator in the country by facility count, with 18 sites**: Changi, Changi 25A, Toa Payoh (743 Lorong 5), Toa Payoh (615 Lorong 4), Bukit Batok, Bukit Batok No. 9, Jurong East, Jurong West, Marsiling, Marsiling (Riverside Road), Woodlands Loop, Hougang, Hougang (91 Defu Lane), Tampines, Kallang Avenue, Serangoon, Yishun and West Coast. If proximity is your first filter — and for a unit you will visit repeatedly, it should be — StorHub has the best odds of having something near you. **There are three separate offers running at once, and they are not interchangeable.** (1) **50% off two months** at selected locations, described as 'two months for the price of 1', with no security deposit and a best-rate guarantee; availability is limited to selected facilities and unit sizes. (2) **From S$25 a month** for lockers at **Jurong East and Jurong West only**, framed as 50% off four months — and the page is explicit that the **normal monthly rate applies from the fifth month onwards**. This one is **auto-pay only** and for **new customers, or existing customers taking an additional unit**. (3) **Two months free**, which StorHub itself annotates as **'up to 16% off 12 months'** — the single most useful sentence on any storage promotions page in Singapore, because it is the only place an operator does the annualisation for you. This third offer runs across all 18 locations and requires you to **sign up by 31 August 2026**. On top of those: a **S$100 referral incentive** paid the month after your friend signs up, with no cap on how many people you refer, and **buy 5 storage boxes, get 1 free** of the same size. StorHub's stated position across all three deals is no security deposit required, which removes the traditional one-month hold. Enquiries on 6337 2000.

Three offers running: 50% off two months at selected locations (no deposit, best-rate guarantee) · lockers from S$25/month at Jurong East and Jurong West, 50% off four months with the normal rate from the fifth month, auto-pay and new units only · two months free across all 18 sites, which StorHub itself rates as 'up to 16% off 12 months' — sign up by 31 August 2026. Plus S$100 per referral (no limit) and buy 5 boxes get 1 free. No security deposit on any of them.

Extra Space Asia — 30% Off the Whole Prepaid Term, No Deposit, and It Ends 31 August

Extra Space Asia — 30% Off the Whole Prepaid Term, No Deposit, and It Ends 31 August logo

Extra Space Asia — 30% Off the Whole Prepaid Term, No Deposit, and It Ends 31 August

**This is the cleanest offer on the list, and the only one whose discount does not step back up partway through.** Extra Space Asia's **'Moving Season. Get Extra.'** campaign gives a flat **30% off self storage when you prepay 3 to 12 months**, with **no deposit and no hidden fees**, and it is stated on their own promotions page as **Offer Ends 31 August 2026**. A parallel **'Rose Season'** offer gives the same **30% off wine storage units**, also ending 31 August 2026. Because the 30% applies across the prepaid term rather than to a fixed number of opening months, a 12-month prepay is genuinely 30% off the year — nearly double what StorHub's two-months-free works out to, and the reason this sits second on the list despite a smaller headline number than several competitors. **The trade is the prepayment itself**: you are committing 3 to 12 months of rent up front to get it, which is fine for a fixed-length renovation and less fine if your timeline is open-ended. **Twelve Singapore locations**: Ang Mo Kio, Boon Keng, Commonwealth, Eunos Link, Hillview, IMM, Kallang Way, Marymount, Tai Seng, Toa Payoh, West Coast and Woodlands — a spread that covers most of the island's residential belt, with IMM and Hillview useful for the west and Eunos Link and Tai Seng for the east. **The range of services is the widest here**: air-conditioned and non-air-conditioned units, dedicated wine storage, **BIZplus+** shared workspaces, **e-Valet** door-to-door storage (they pick up, store and deliver), **e-Locker** parcel drop-off and collection any day, and **e-Move** moving services. If you want the valet convenience of Spaceship but with the option of visiting a physical unit later, Extra Space is the operator that offers both models under one account.

'Moving Season. Get Extra.' — 30% off self storage when you prepay 3 to 12 months. No deposit, no hidden fees. Offer ends 31 August 2026. A parallel 'Rose Season' offer gives 30% off wine storage units, also ending 31 August 2026. Unlike the free-months deals elsewhere on this list, the 30% applies across the whole prepaid term rather than to the opening months only.

Lock+Store — 16 Locations, and Two Branch-Specific Deals Worth 40% Each

Lock+Store runs **16 locations in Singapore** and takes a different approach to promotions from the chains above: rather than one network-wide campaign, it discounts **specific branches**, usually where new capacity has just come online. **Two offers are live on its homepage right now, and both are worth 40%.** First, **Lock+Store Ayer Rajah**: **pay only 60%** for **brand-new air-conditioned storage units**, with the instruction to **pre-book by end August 2026** to secure it. Second, **Lock+Store Kaki Bukit**: **40% off air-conditioned and non-air-conditioned storage space when you rent for a minimum period of three months**. Note the difference in structure between them — the Kaki Bukit deal names its minimum term openly (three months), while the Ayer Rajah offer is a pre-booking on new units, so ask what term the 60% rate is held for before you commit. Both are branch-specific: **neither applies at the other 14 sites**, so if your nearest Lock+Store is elsewhere you are on rack rate, and it is worth pricing the journey to Ayer Rajah or Kaki Bukit against the saving. **On its own FAQ, Lock+Store describes its model as flexible packages with no long-term commitment**, and says it runs early-bird, referral and seasonal promotions, with current ones displayed at the top of the homepage — which is the right place to check before enquiring, because branch campaigns rotate as capacity fills. The 24-hour access Lock+Store is known for is a **branch-level feature rather than a chain-wide guarantee**, so confirm it for the specific site you intend to use.

Two branch-specific offers, both worth 40%. Lock+Store Ayer Rajah: pay only 60% for brand-new air-conditioned storage units — pre-book by end August 2026. Lock+Store Kaki Bukit: 40% off air-con and non-air-con storage space when you rent for a minimum period of three months. Neither applies at the other 14 locations. Terms and conditions apply.

Work+Store — Free 4 Months Plus 35% Off: the Deepest Offer on the Island, If Your Unit Is 55-65 Sqft

**On annualised terms this is the biggest discount in Singapore self-storage right now, and it is not close.** Work+Store's own campaign artwork advertises an **Aircon Storage Promotion: FREE 4 MONTHS + 35% OFF, from 55-65 sqft**. Four months at zero plus eight months at 65% comes to **5.2 months of rent for a full year — roughly 57% off** a 12-month rental, against 30% for the next-best offer here. **The conditions are where it gets narrow, and Work+Store publishes them in full on its promotion page.** The promotion is valid **for new customers and new move-ins only**; it **cannot be combined** with any other discount, promotion or offer; it **requires full prepayment**; it is a **limited-time offer on a first-come, first-served basis**; and it **applies to selected units at designated facilities, subject to availability**. Work+Store may **reserve your chosen unit up to one month in advance**, which is genuinely useful if your move-in date is fixed but a few weeks out. One quirk worth knowing before you go looking: **the promotion page itself publishes only the terms and an enquiry form** — the actual offer lives on the banner artwork, so if you land on the terms page and see no numbers, you have not missed anything. **Five facilities**: Kallang Bahru, Ang Mo Kio, Eunos, Aljunied and Tampines — a tighter network than StorHub or Extra Space, concentrated in the centre and east. **Unit types** cover Basic (non-aircon), Aircon, Business, Wine and Door-to-Door storage, with **24/7 access** and size bands running from below 25 sqft (locker) through 25-40 sqft (HDB lift), 45-60 sqft (storeroom), 70-90 sqft (common bedroom) and 100-125 sqft (master bedroom) to 130 sqft and above.

Aircon Storage Promotion: FREE 4 MONTHS + 35% OFF on units from 55-65 sqft — roughly 57% off a 12-month rental, the deepest offer on this list.

Storefriendly — Eight Branches, Every One 24/7, Robotic Storage — and No Promotion Running At All

**Storefriendly is the operator most likely to be unfairly skipped this month, because it is advertising nothing.** Its promotions page sits in the main navigation and, as of **21 August 2026**, lists **no active offer**. That is a fact about the page, not a judgement about the business — but it does mean that if you shortlist on discounts alone you will never see it, and you should ask for a written quote to compare its rack rate against a competitor's promotional rate before ruling it out. **What it has instead is the most consistent access policy on this list.** Storefriendly publishes **Access Hrs: 24/7 on every one of its eight branch listings**, rather than as a chain-level claim with per-site exceptions: **Paya Lebar** (107 Eunos Avenue 3, Storefriendly Centre, S409837 · 6206 7331), **Leng Kee** (19 Leng Kee Road, S159093 · 6206 7334), **Bedok South** (202 Bedok South Ave 1, Blk A, #01-02, S469332 · 6206 7336), **Ubi** (69 Ubi Crescent, S408561 · 6206 7338), **Clementi** (1 Clementi Loop, #03-06, S129808 · 6206 7332), **Bukit Merah** (10 Jalan Kilang Timor, S159306 · 6206 7337), **Jurong East** (10 Toh Guan Road East) and **Hougang**. Each branch has its own direct line, which is a small thing that makes getting a real quote much faster than a central enquiry form. **It is also the only operator here running robotic storage**, alongside self storage, wine storage, business storage, workspaces, coworking, a movers service and merchandise. **Access is by smart card with biometric security**, with no additional payment or telephone reservation needed to visit during opening hours, and trolleys at the loading dock. **The agreement is deliberately short-form**: Storefriendly states there is **no long-term lease** — it uses an SSAA-approved storage agreement, you can move in the day you sign, stays can be **as short as one month**, and you give **at least 14 days' notice** to move out. Fees are paid monthly in advance by cash, cheque or credit card. Free parking is available at selected branches. Over 20,000 individuals and businesses use it.

Spaceship — Door-to-Door From S$72/Month, Where You Never Visit a Facility (But Pay for Every Trip, Twice)

Spaceship — Door-to-Door From S$72/Month, Where You Never Visit a Facility (But Pay for Every Trip, Twice)

**Spaceship is the operator to use when the problem is not space, it is that you have no vehicle and a dozen boxes.** It is a **door-to-door valet service**: they pick up, store your items on pallets in their own Singapore facility, and deliver them back — you never visit a unit. **Storage itself is priced transparently and competitively**, starting at **S$72 a month for a 20 sqft plan**, which Spaceship rates as fitting **12 cartons and 3 suitcases**, approximately **1.4m x 1.3m**; a 40 sqft plan covers a small room of personal items. **The part to model carefully is the transport, because it is billed separately from the storage and billed again on the way back.** Going in: **Small Item Pickup is S$20 per trip plus S$3 per item**, best for a few boxes and **capped at 20 items**; **Move to Storage**, for furniture, bulky items and whole-home contents, starts at **S$120 per trip** and includes a team of trained movers, free brand-new double-walled packing cartons and a covered vehicle with driver. Coming out: **Small Item Return is S$20 per trip plus S$3 per item**, and a **Storage Return starts at S$120 per trip for a 20 sqft move load, plus S$60 for each additional load**. So twelve boxes in and back out runs roughly **S$56 each way in handling** before a cent of rent — which is exactly why this beats a physical unit for a student's summer boxes and loses to one for a renovation. **Items are barcoded and inventoried**, which means you can see what you have in storage without going to look. **Read the coverage carefully**: basic protection is **SGD 1.00 per kilogram, up to S$200 per item, capped at S$1,500 per customer**, with a **S$30 excess** on eligible claims — adequate for household overflow, well short for anything valuable. Spaceship also runs SpaceLabs co-warehousing, Fulfilment by Spaceship for e-commerce sellers, office-with-storage and managed B2B logistics. Sales on 6220 0126.

Urban Space — Up to 3 Months Free at a Single Bukit Merah Site That Also Rents Desks and Does Fulfilment

**Urban Space trades network size for range of services under one roof.** It operates from **one address — 3 Depot Close, #01-02, Singapore 109840, in Bukit Merah** — and describes itself as Singapore's integrated space provider, combining **self-storage, workspace, e-commerce fulfilment and door-to-door storage** at the same site. **The current offer is up to 3 months free** when you sign up, with terms and conditions applying. On a 12-month rental, three free months is **25% off the year** — which places it above StorHub's headline offers and below Extra Space's flat 30%, and makes it the strongest deal on this list from an operator most people have not heard of. Two smaller offers run alongside it: a **referral programme**, and **boxes on sale — buy 5, get 1 free**. **The single-site structure is the thing to weigh.** If you live or work anywhere near Bukit Merah it is a genuine contender; if you do not, a unit you will visit repeatedly at a location across the island usually costs more in time than the discount saves in money. **Where the one-roof model earns its keep is for small businesses.** The **Workspace** offering is a hybrid setup aimed at e-commerce sellers, freelancers and SMEs, with working areas, a pantry, meeting rooms and live-stream studios, so you can work, hold stock and run operations in the same building. The **E-commerce & Fulfilment** service adds 24/7 access to self-contained units plus value-added logistics — goods receiving, pallet handling, last-mile delivery arrangements and a shared packing area. For storage proper: **24/7 access, round-the-clock CCTV surveillance and strict access controls**, flexible terms with the ability to **upgrade or downsize your unit at any time** (worth having, given how often people over-rent), and an online **Space Calculator** so you only pay for the size you need. Booking is a three-step flow — calculate, get a tailored quote with an optional site tour, then pay online and move in. Contact 6282 0000 / 9628 0088 or hello@urbanspace.com.sg.

Up to 3 months free when you sign up — worth roughly 25% off a 12-month rental, terms and conditions apply, no end date published. Two smaller offers run alongside it: a referral programme, and boxes on sale (buy 5, get 1 free). One site only: 3 Depot Close, #01-02, Singapore 109840, Bukit Merah.

Store Room — One Facility, 24/7 Access, Cubicles From 12 Sqft, and a Lowest-Price Guarantee Instead of a Promotion

**Store Room is the plainest operator on this list, and it competes on rate rather than campaign.** Like Storefriendly, its website carries a **Promotion page in the menu — and that page is empty**; what it advertises instead is a **lowest-price guarantee**. If you are shopping this month, that means the comparison to run is Store Room's quoted rate against a discounted rate elsewhere, not against another headline. Ask for both in writing. **One facility**: **6 New Industrial Road, #01-02, New Century Building, Singapore 536199** — off Upper Paya Lebar Road, in the industrial belt between Tai Seng and Ang Mo Kio. **Office hours are Mondays to Fridays 9:00am to 6:00pm and Saturdays 10:00am to 4:00pm, closed Sundays and public holidays — but storage access is 24 hours a day, 7 days a week**, so the office hours constrain when you can sign, pay or ask questions rather than when you can reach your things. Enquiries on **6282 3966** or enquiry@storeroom.com.sg. **The size range is genuinely wide for a single site**, running from **cubicle stores at 12-19 sqft** — one of the smallest entry sizes on this list, and the right answer for documents, a few boxes or seasonal items — up through small (20-40 sqft), medium (41-60 sqft) and large, to **extra-large units at 82-114 sqft** that will take the contents of a flat. There is an online size calculator, and the site is set up for both personal storage (decluttering, moving house, household goods, collectibles) and business storage (inventory, office equipment, SME and corporate stock). **Flexible rental terms with 24-hour access** is the core proposition, and the single-site model means the team knows the building — worth something when you are trying to work out whether a sofa will fit through a particular door.

What to check before you sign

Get the renewal rate in writing, not just the promotional rate. Every teaser on this page reverts. StorHub's Jurong locker deal spells it out — normal monthly rate from the fifth month onwards — but most operators do not put the post-promotion figure on the poster. Ask for it as a number, for the specific unit, before you commit.

Work out whether the discount is tied to a prepayment you cannot get back. Extra Space's 30% requires prepaying 3 to 12 months. Work+Store's terms state the promotion requires full prepayment. StorHub's Jurong offer is auto-pay only. Prepaid rent is committed capital; if your renovation finishes two months early, you are unlikely to see it again.

Check the promotion applies to the unit you actually need. Work+Store's headline offer is for 55-65 sqft aircon units — outside that band it does not apply. StorHub's S$25 entry rate is for lockers. Lock+Store's 60% rate is for the brand-new aircon units at Ayer Rajah specifically. A deal you cannot use at your size is not a deal.

Confirm 24/7 access at the branch, not the brand. Several chains advertise round-the-clock access as a group feature while individual sites differ. Storefriendly publishes Access Hrs: 24/7 on each of its eight branch listings, which is the level of specificity to look for. Ask about the branch you will actually use.

Read the insurance ceiling before you store anything valuable. Spaceship publishes its basic coverage plainly — SGD 1.00 per kilogram, capped at S$200 per item and S$1,500 per customer, with a S$30 excess. That is fine for household clutter and nowhere near enough for equipment, instruments or collections. Ask every operator for their per-item cap and what it costs to raise it.

Do not over-rent. Every operator here has a size calculator. The commonest expensive mistake in self-storage is taking one band too large "to be safe", then paying for the extra square footage for a year.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which self-storage company in Singapore is actually cheapest right now?

It depends entirely on how long you are storing for, and that is the point most comparisons miss. For a full year, Work+Store's aircon offer is the deepest on the island - free 4 months plus 35% off the rest works out to roughly 57% off a 12-month rental - but it applies only to 55-65 sqft aircon units, is limited to new customers and new move-ins, and requires full prepayment up front. If you want a discount that simply applies without unit-size conditions, Extra Space Asia's 30% off is the cleanest offer running, and it is the only one on this list that holds for the entire prepaid term rather than just the opening months - it ends 31 August 2026 and requires prepayment of 3 to 12 months. For a short stay of one to three months during a renovation, the ranking flips: StorHub's 50% off two months and Lock+Store's Kaki Bukit 40% off are worth more to you than Extra Space's 30%, because you will never reach the months where the teaser rates expire. And if you only have a dozen boxes, none of these are the right answer - Spaceship's door-to-door service at S$72 a month for 20 sqft, with no facility visit, will usually beat renting the smallest unit at a physical site once you price in the trips.

Why does a '50% off' storage promotion only save me 8% over a year?

Because the discount is applied to a fixed number of opening months, not to the lease. StorHub's '50% Off Two Months' means two months are billed at half price - that is one month of rent saved. Spread across a 12-month rental, one free month is 1/12, or 8.3%. StorHub is unusually honest about this on its own promotions page: the offer it labels 'Two months free' carries the subtitle 'up to two months free (up to 16% off 12 months)', which is exactly 2/12. Run the same arithmetic on every offer before comparing them. Three months free on a 12-month rental is 25%. Four free months plus 35% off the remaining eight months is 8 x 0.65 = 5.2 months of rent for a year, or about 57% off. A flat 30% for the whole prepaid term is 30%. Only once every offer is on that common basis can you tell which is genuinely the biggest, and the ordering is not the one the advertised percentages suggest.

What size storage unit do I actually need in Singapore?

The commonest and most expensive mistake is renting one size too big. As a rough guide from the operators' own size bands: a locker or cubicle of 12 to 25 sqft holds documents, luggage and seasonal items - Store Room starts its cubicles at 12-19 sqft and StorHub's lockers start from S$25 a month. A 25-40 sqft unit is roughly the footprint of an HDB lift and takes the contents of a bedroom. Spaceship rates its 20 sqft plan at 12 cartons plus 3 suitcases, which is a useful concrete benchmark - about 1.4m by 1.3m. A 45-60 sqft unit is storeroom-sized and is the typical choice for a renovation; Work+Store's current aircon promotion sits in exactly this band at 55-65 sqft. Above 70 sqft you are into whole-bedroom and whole-flat territory, and Store Room's extra-large units run 82-114 sqft. Every operator on this list publishes a size calculator or estimator, and several keep physical size guides at reception - use one before you sign, because moving down a size after move-in usually means re-signing rather than adjusting the existing agreement.

Do Singapore self-storage companies charge a security deposit?

Increasingly not, and it is worth asking because it is real money held up front. StorHub states 'no security deposit required' on all three of its current promotions, and Extra Space Asia's 30% offer is advertised as 'no deposit, no hidden fees'. That is a meaningful difference from the older model where a month's rent was held. What has replaced the deposit is prepayment: Extra Space's discount requires you to prepay 3 to 12 months, Work+Store's promotion terms state that full prepayment is required, and StorHub's Jurong East and Jurong West locker offer is auto-pay only. So the cash you are not putting down as a deposit, you are often putting down as advance rent instead - and prepaid rent is committed to that operator in a way a refundable deposit is not. Also check the insurance position separately: Spaceship, for example, includes basic coverage at SGD 1.00 per kilogram capped at S$200 per item and S$1,500 per customer, with a S$30 excess on eligible claims, which is a low ceiling if you are storing anything of real value.

Is door-to-door valet storage cheaper than renting a self-storage unit?

For small volumes, usually yes; for anything approaching a room of furniture, usually no - and the reason is that valet storage prices the transport separately from the storage. Spaceship's storage itself starts at S$72 a month for a 20 sqft plan, which is competitive. But the movement is billed on top and billed twice. Small Item Pickup is S$20 per trip plus S$3 per item, capped at 20 items; a Move to Storage for furniture and whole-home contents starts at S$120 per trip. Then the return is charged all over again: Small Item Return is S$20 per trip plus S$3 per item, and a Storage Return starts at S$120 per trip for a 20 sqft move load plus S$60 for each additional load. So a dozen boxes in and out costs roughly S$56 each way in handling on top of the rent. The trade is convenience and no vehicle: for a student storing boxes over a summer, or anyone without transport, that is money well spent. For a renovation where you are moving a household in and out, a physical unit you can drive to - and where several operators on this list give 24/7 access - works out cheaper and lets you retrieve one item without booking a delivery.
