Balancing studies and social life can be challenging, so you’re probably looking forward to a well-deserved break during the summer holidays—whether you’re heading back to your parents, traveling abroad for work, or simply exploring on your own.
With all the chaos that comes with the end of the academic year, you’ve likely not yet had the opportunity to think about what you’ll do with all your belongings over the summer. It’s incredible how quickly you accumulate things, even when you’re limited to a single dorm room.
When it comes to moving and transporting all your belongings back home, it can feel overwhelming. More specifically, if you’re returning in a few months, it doesn’t make much sense to pack everything you own and move it back to your family home or apartment, only to bring it all back again shortly after.
While moving everything to your parents’ place might be the cheapest option, it’s not always the most practical or convenient solution for everyone.
The first thing you may want to check before deciding on storage.
Some of you live in private apartments, and either you or the landlord may rent the apartment out on Airbnb during the holidays. Check whether the landlord will require all items to be removed from the room, and whether they are willing to let you leave your belongings in the apartment while you’re away.
If you can’t leave your belongings in your apartment or dorm and you don’t have any other safe storage options, don’t assume that taking everything home is your only solution.
There is a better way! Self-storage could be the answer.
Self-storage allows you to safely store your belongings over the summer; simply pack your items, bring them to Misterbox self-storage, store them, lock your unit, and forget about them until October. More importantly, start enjoying your summer.
Across the country, you’ll find hundreds of self-storage facilities—Misterbox has more than 7 locations nationwide, so there’s a very good chance one is near your university. We operate sites in major cities such as Prague, Brno, Plzeň, Hradec Králové, and Liberec.
As a student, your budget may be limited. Our units offer a great balance between price and size. It’s more cost-effective to reserve a larger unit and split the cost with other students. By using a code lock on the container, you won’t have to worry about managing keys.
