Self storage works on the principle of renting a box. The customer rents a space based on his needs, but he must pay for the space that is not used. For example, if the customer rents a 20m3 box, but only uses 15m3, he must still pay for the remaining 5m3. This can represent a significant loss of income at the end of the month.

The furniture repository, on the other hand, offers a dedicated space that is calculated to the nearest cubic meter according to the client's needs. Thus, the client only pays for the space actually used, which allows for significant savings.

Self storage can be complicated, as the customer has to do everything himself, from the preparation of the goods (dismantling, protection, boxing) to their storage and transportation. This can be particularly complicated for professionals who have bulky or fragile goods.

The furniture repository, on the other hand, can offer a turnkey service. At Moovebox, for example, customers are accompanied from A to Z with a service that includes the collection of goods, the dismantling if necessary, the transport to the storage places and even the possibility of sending back part of the goods if necessary. This service saves precious time for individuals and professionals.

Self-storage can be limiting for people with varying storage needs, such as seasonal businesses. For example, a retailer who sells Christmas items only needs to store his products for a few months a year. However, with self storage, he is obliged to rent a box during all the year, which represents a significant cost.

A furniture storage unit, on the other hand, offers a flexible and non-restrictive solution. The person can rent a storage space for a determined period, according to his real needs. At Moovebox, for example, it is possible to rent a furniture repository for a few weeks, a few months or several years, depending on the client's needs.

The furniture repository also offers additional security compared to self storage. Indeed, it is accessible only in the presence of a chosen and authorized professional. In addition, the maintenance of the premises, the cleanliness, the protection of the premises and the security with cameras are a plus that you cannot always find in self storage. This can be particularly interesting for valuable goods or confidential archives.
