How to find the cheapest prices for self storage in Tooting

Whatever your plans, it sounds like you might need some storage.

The good news is that there’s lots of choice when it comes to storage solutions in this part of South London. But even though Tooting is generally considered to be cheaper than neighbouring areas like Clapham and Balham, it can still be tricky to find an affordable option.

If you want to find ways to save on storage in Tooting, read on. We’ve put together a handy guide on how to find the cheapest prices for self-storage in Tooting.

You’ll need to know exactly what you’re looking for, have an eagle eye for promotions and be prepared to compare lots of prices. But in the end, your bank balance will thank you.

So, let’s start with our first tip – pinpoint exactly what you need in terms of storage space.

Step 1 – Define your needs

The first step to finding affordable storage in Tooting is to assess your needs.

The most crucial factor is how much space you’ll need. Ideally, you’ll need to know in square metres, or at least number of boxes. You can use our space estimator tool to work it out.

This is important because storage units tend to come in a wide range of different sizes. Each is priced accordingly – with bigger units typically being more expensive. If you guess what size you need and get it wrong, you could end up paying through the nose for space you don’t need.

Conveniently for Tooting residents, Kiwi Storage has a site located on Merton Road in Wandsworth. Here we have units ranging from 5 square foot all the way through to 150 square foot. This means there’s an option for everyone.

Step 2 – Get and compare lots of different quotes

The first price you see isn’t necessarily going to be the cheapest, so it’s recommended to get a few different quotes and compare them. This will give you a good idea of what’s out there and what prices are reasonable.

Ultimately, it should help you narrow down your options and find the very cheapest prices for self storage in Tooting. And make sure to keep an eye out for special offers, whether it’s promotions for new customers or discounts for long-term bookings.

Step 3 - Check for extra charges


In most cases, the price you’re quoted for a storage unit will be the price you pay. But it’s not unheard of for storage facilities to charge extra fees, for things like:

  • Insurance
  • Security deposits
  • Accessing your unit outside of standard hours.
  • Quarterly or annual rent increases
  • Cancellation charges
  • Charges for moving out of your unit early.

Step 4 - Make sure it meets your needs


So far, we’ve run through the steps involved in getting the cheapest prices for storage in Tooting. But remember that cost isn’t the only important factor to consider. The unit, and the storage facility in general, needs to meet your needs too.

Key things to check are the security and cleanliness of the facility, as well as the arrangements for access. Location is also crucial, as ideally you’ll want a unit that is centrally located and easy to reach via road or public transport (depending on how you plan to access your unit).
