Storage spaces in Singapore
We all dream of living in that Pinterest-worthy, Airbnb-worthy house, filled with pretty furniture and not a shred of clutter to ruin the aesthetic. And we try to achieve that, with storage hacks and space-saving furniture. But given that most of us face the task of storing an entire lifetime’s worth of belongings within 1,300 sqft or less, it’s not easy to prettify the space without decluttering.
If you can’t bear to toss out your beloved belongings Marie Kondo-style, here are some storage spaces in Singapore to consider. These out-of-home storage options come in various sizes, high security and even valet services to help you “hide” the old but valuable whilst hitting all your #homegoals.

What is a storage space rental?
Storage space rental has become increasingly popular especially in Singapore since most of us have limited space in our homes. You can use these spaces to store almost anything you want – from excess household items to even large pieces of furniture.
Storage spaces can also be used by businesses to keep extra inventory. However, there are some things which aren’t allowed such as chemicals, radioactive materials, hazardous substances – you get the picture.
The pricing of each strage unit is heavily dependent on various factors – the storage facility, the size that you’re renting, and the duration of your rental. Generally, for most of these facilities, the longer you store your items, the lower the rates. The size of these rental spaces range from a box’s worth of storage space to the equivalent of a bedroom.
Although you are paying money for the space, you aren’t allowed to do anything you want with it. This means that you aren’t allowed to live there or set up your office. The space should solely be used for storage purposes only.
