Storage was boring. We couldn’t leave it alone.

UK self storage has been the same for thirty years: a metal shed off a ring road, a logo, a padlock, and a contract with more asterisks than sentences. It works — but nobody has ever loved it, and plenty of people have been quietly stung by it.

Boxroom started with a simple bet: treat storage like a consumer product and people will notice. Purpose-built stores instead of converted warehouses. Weekly pricing with no deposit instead of monthly contracts with surprise fees. A size guide that speaks human instead of square feet. Buildings you can actually find, painted colours you can see from the motorway.

We’re starting where the pressure on space is highest — London, the Home Counties and the South East — with 0 stores open and more on the way. Every store runs the same way: PIN-code entry, CCTV that never blinks, individually alarmed units, free trolleys, and a staffed reception where someone will actually help you.

The name is the system. You don’t “utilise a storage solution” at Boxroom — you box it, you drop it, you’re done.

Boxroom is a Yeats company — built by the commercial property group developing purpose-designed space across London and the South East. Yeats buys the sites, designs the buildings and backs the brand; Boxroom runs them.
