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.
Storage demand and seasonal trends
Storage demand varies by season — student moves peak May-June, house moves peak spring and autumn, business stock rotation peaks before Q4. Early booking secures the best-located spaces.
Frequently asked questions
Can I store inherited items while deciding what to keep?
Clearing a family home after a bereavement is emotional and rarely urgent. A Packhood space lets you store inherited furniture, photo albums, china and sentimental items safely while you take time to decide. Indoor spaces (spare rooms, basements) protect delicate heirlooms. No minimum term means you store for exactly as long as you need.
What should I do before putting my car into storage?
Inflate tyres to the upper recommended PSI to prevent flat spots. Fill the fuel tank to reduce condensation. Disconnect the battery or use a trickle charger if the host allows power access. Clean the interior to prevent mould. Disclose any fuel in the vehicle on your Packhood booking as required by the platform's terms.
How do I store important documents and artwork safely?
Use acid-free boxes for documents and flat portfolio cases for artwork. Never roll oil paintings. Choose a climate-stable indoor space on Packhood — spare rooms and basements are ideal. Avoid attics (heat fluctuation) and sheds (moisture risk). For irreplaceable items, consider adding specialist contents insurance beyond the standard Host Guarantee.
What types of space can I list?
Garages, spare rooms, driveways, sheds, attics, basements, lock-ups, storage containers, warehouse bays, commercial units, parking spaces, workshops — any unused space that's secure and accessible. Most hosts earn €80-220/month from a single space.
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.
Can businesses use Packhood?

What is the cheapest way for students to store belongings between terms?
Packhood peer-to-peer storage is typically 40-60% cheaper than university storage schemes or commercial pods.

No contracts, no minimum term.
Can students use Packhood for summer storage?
