Elbowroom is self storage for homes and shops that ran out of corners. We keep what you are not using yet, dry and lit and alarmed, a few minutes from the M602, so the rooms you live and work in can breathe again.

Elbowroom works by the month: no contract, no deposit, no admin fee, and fourteen days' notice when you are done. Change size whenever life changes and we move your things across for free.
Still unsure? Come and stand in one before you book.
Not on a poster in reception: in the contract. If we break one of them, your next month is free.
(1)
From a 15 sq ft locker to a 150 sq ft garage, every unit 2.4 m high and swept clean. Outgrow yours or shrink it and we move everything across for free, the same week.
Most people book one size too big. Ask us first.
(2)
Open every hour of every day. Your phone opens the gate, the lift and your own door. Drive-up bays sit beside the loading doors, with flat trolleys waiting.
Kerb to unit in four minutes. We timed it with a sofa.
(3)
Pay by the month and leave with fourteen days' notice. No deposit, no admin fee, and your last month is charged to the day you hand back access.
Most people stay eight months. Some stay eight years.
Most of what fills a home is waiting for a later that comes once a year: the camping kit, the Christmas boxes, the cot between babies. Move it here and the spare room is a room again.
A desk. A guest bed. A floor for the jigsaw.
Our customers clear about nine square metres at home on average, the size of a box room. Bring it in one trip; we lend the trolley and the van.
