What fits in a garage? A standard single garage (15-18 m²) holds the contents of a 1-2 bedroom flat: sofa, bed frame, dining table, 20-30 boxes, plus bikes and garden equipment. Drive-up access makes loading easy. Most garages are weather-sealed with a lockable door. Tip: stack boxes against the back wall and leave a walkway down the centre for access.

Frequently asked questions
Do I pay tax on Packhood hosting income?
Ireland: first €14,000/year of Rent-a-Room income is tax-free. UK: first £1,000/year falls under the Property Allowance (£7,500 if Rent-a-Room applies). Netherlands: rental income taxed under Box 3 wealth tax. Packhood provides a full payout history. Consult a local accountant for your situation.
How do I move items into the space?
Arrange your own transport to the host's address. Most spaces have drive-up or street-level access. The listing shows access details including parking, lift availability and stairs. For large moves, a van hire or removal service works — the host can usually advise on local options.
What hidden fees do self-storage chains charge?
Commercial chains commonly add: admin or setup fees (£20-50), compulsory insurance (£10-25/month), branded padlock purchase (£10-15), exit fees, price rises after introductory periods, and minimum contract terms (4-12 weeks). On Packhood, the listing price is the total price — no admin fees, no forced insurance, no padlock upsells, no lock-in contracts.
How should I store wine safely?
Wine needs a cool, stable environment — ideally 10-15 degrees C with minimal temperature swings. Basements on Packhood are the best option: naturally cool, dark and vibration-free. Store bottles on their sides to keep corks moist. Avoid garages and sheds where summer heat can spoil wine within weeks. Ask the host about seasonal temperature range before booking.
Where should I store Christmas decorations and seasonal items?
Attics, spare rooms and sheds on Packhood are perfect for bulky seasonal items. Use clear plastic bins so you can see contents without opening them. A 4-6 m² shed or attic holds a full-size artificial tree, 10+ decoration boxes and outdoor lights. Book from January to November for around €45-70/month and free up valuable home space year-round.
How do I protect furniture during a move into storage?
Disassemble bed frames and tables to save space. Wrap upholstered furniture in breathable dust sheets — avoid cling film, which traps moisture. Stand mattresses upright in a mattress bag. Use corner protectors on wooden furniture. Packhood listings with indoor spaces (spare rooms, basements) offer the best protection for delicate pieces.
How does Smart Pricing work?
When you list a space, Packhood's Smart Pricing reads 1,800+ comparables in your area (postcodes, Eircode, space types) and suggests a competitive monthly price. You can accept, adjust, or set your own price. Smart Pricing updates recommendations quarterly.
How fast do hosts get paid?
Hosts receive payment via Stripe Connect within 24 hours of the renter's move-in date. Monthly payments follow the same cycle. Payouts land in your connected bank account in your market's currency (€ for Ireland/Netherlands, £ for UK).
Is my stuff insured while in storage?
Every Packhood booking includes the Host Guarantee covering up to €300 (£300 UK) per booking for renter-caused damage to the host's space. For your own items, standard home insurance policies often extend to belongings stored elsewhere — check your policy or arrange specialist storage insurance from around €5/month.
What is the Packhood Host Guarantee?
Automatic protection included with every booking, covering up to €300 (£300 UK) per booking for renter-caused damage to the host's property. Requires verified host status, accepted and paid booking, pre-move-in photos, and timely claim filing.
