Why Manchester chooses Packhood over self-storage

Cheaper, too. The average Packhood Manchester booking is £125 a month for a 10 m² space; commercial self-storage in the same volume runs roughly £263. Over a year that's money returned to renters and to the neighbours letting you keep your bike, your IKEA flatpack or your grandmother's piano in the garage they never used.
