flag UK self-storage market hits £1.2B, driven by housing costs and mobility, with South West seeing fastest growth.

flag The UK self-storage market has exceeded £1.2 billion annually, fueled by rising house prices, smaller homes, and increased mobility, with the South West leading growth. flag Bristol, Exeter, and Bath are top users, while towns like Portsmouth and Truro see sharp demand increases, including Truro’s first orders. flag The market grew 7% year-on-year, with demand expected to rise 5-6% annually. flag Usage varies: extra-large boxes in Bristol and Bath reflect major life changes, while Exeter’s larger boxes suggest short-term needs like home offices. flag Despite 50% of adults being aware of storage, only 10% plan to use it, and the UK still lags behind the U.S. in per capita capacity. flag The Box Co. is offering a 10% South West discount until March to support demand, which is projected to keep rising through 2026.
