How to find the cheapest prices for self storage in Earlsfield

You’ll find a wide range of storage solutions in the area, especially if you expand your search beyond the suburb and across the borough. But even though Earlsfield is generally considered to be a little cheaper than neighbouring parts of Wandsworth and Clapham, it can still be hard to find
an affordable option.

The good news is that there are ways to shave a few pounds off the price of storage, if you know where to look. You’ll need to know exactly what you’re looking for, and perhaps be prepared to compromise a little on how much stuff you’ll be storing.

We’re here to help, with a handy guide on finding the cheapest prices for self-storage in Earlsfield. Let’s start with assessing your storage needs.

How much space do you really need?

The first step to finding affordable storage in Earlsfield is defining exactly what you need. The most crucial factor is how much space you’ll need. If you don’t know in metres squared or at least the number of boxes, there’s a risk you end up paying extra for space you simply don’t use.

Storage companies tend to offer units in a wide range of different sizes.

At the Kiwi Storage site in nearby Wandsworth, we have units from 5 square foot to 150 square foot. In some, you can store just a few boxes or the contents or a garden shed. While in others, there’s enough space for the contents of a whole four-bedroom house.

And as you’d expect, the smaller the unit, the lower the cost. This is why it’s so important to choose the right sized unit, one that matches the amount of stuff you have.

This can be tricky to do, so use this handy space estimator tool to get started. It has a visual representation of what you can fit inside each size unit, along with some tips on what each unit is typically used for.

Compare quotes carefully – and look out for special offers


To hunt down the very cheapest prices for self storage in Earlsfield, you’ll need to get a number of different quotes. This is the best way to compare what’s out there and perhaps take advantage of any price-match guarantees too.

Watch out for hidden or extra charges


Before you enter into an agreement for self-storage, it’s worth asking about extra charges – and checking the terms and conditions carefully. Look for hidden charges for things like:

  • Insurance
  • Security deposits
  • Accessing your unit outside of standard hours.
  • Annual rent increases
  • Cancellation charges
  • Charges for moving out of your unit before the end of the pre-agreed period.

Remember – storage should meet your needs, as well as your budget


We’ve been focusing here on finding you the cheapest prices for storage in Earlsfield. But while cost is undoubtedly important, it isn’t the only factor to consider. You also need to make sure you end up with a storage solution that meets your needs.

Is the unit and facility fully secure, and what are the opening hours for access? Can you come and go as you please, or do you need to wait in a queue to check in at reception? These are key questions to ask.

You might also want to see the unit first, to make sure it’s clean and dry.
And then of course, there’s location. It needs to be easy to reach for your chosen mode of transport. Ideally, you’ll want your unit to be centrally located, near a major road and local transport links.

If you live in Earlsfield, it’s useful to know that the Kiwi Storage Wandsworth site is just a stone’s throw away.
