Je lege ruimte kan €1.752 per jaar opleveren.

A typical urban garage at 20 m³ lists between €70 and €100 a month depending on city and access. After Packhood's 5% commission you keep 95% — paid via Stripe Connect on the next payout cycle. Premium locations like Dublin 4, Amsterdam Oost or central London regularly clear higher monthly figures.

Spare rooms used for storage (not occupants) typically clear €120–€220/mo in the cities where Packhood is live. Renters never have access to the rest of the home; access is by appointment only.

Every booking includes the Packhood Host Guarantee — up to €300 per booking, aggregate across all claims for that booking. Eligibility: verified host (email + phone + Stripe Connect), accepted+paid+active booking, pre-move-in photos uploaded, prohibited-items and access-rules compliance, claim filed on time.

Treatment depends on use and frequency (Box 1 vs Box 3). There is no Rent-a-Room equivalent in the Netherlands. Consult the Belastingdienst before listing. The named scheme is "Belastingdienst rules". Source: Belastingdienst (https://www.belastingdienst.nl/wps/wcm/connect/bldcontentnl/belastingdienst/prive/woning/woning-en-belasting/). Packhood is not a tax adviser; if you're close to or above the threshold, consult an accountant.

If you rent your home, check your tenancy agreement first — most allow short-term storage of items, but some prohibit any commercial use. If you own a leasehold flat, your lease may set conditions. We can't override those agreements; the responsibility to comply sits with you.

5% commission on each booking. There are no listing fees, subscription fees, or hidden costs. Payouts arrive in your connected Stripe account on Packhood's normal payout cycle.

About 12 minutes: photos, three-sentence description, set a price, complete email + phone + Stripe Connect verification. Most active-city listings receive their first booking request within 6–14 days.

Yes — pause anytime in your dashboard, with no cancellation penalty. Active bookings continue to their agreed end date; new bookings are blocked the moment you pause.

Renter pays Packhood → Packhood holds the payment via Stripe → on the booking's first payout date you receive 95% (the listed price minus the 5% host commission) into your connected Stripe account, on Packhood's normal payout cycle. No invoicing, no chasing.

Renters who have completed email + phone verification and paid by card through Stripe with 3-D Secure (SCA). Their payment is authorised and held until you accept — so a booking only reaches you with money already secured. Your address is shared only after a booking confirms, and renters agree to your access rules and prohibited-items list before they pay.

SpareRoom is for renting rooms to live in; Packhood is for renting space to store items. Different KYC, different insurance, different legal status — storage hosting is not a residential let, so no tenancy rights apply. That makes Packhood a much faster, lower-commitment way to monetise the same property.

Anything dry, secure and accessible: garages, sheds, attics, basements, driveways, spare rooms, box rooms, commercial mezzanines and warehouse bays. We don't accept shared/communal areas, anything below building-code waterproofing, or spaces with active mould or rodent issues.
