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
How is Packhood different from Stashbee or Storemates?
Packhood operates specifically in Ireland, the UK and the Netherlands with local Stripe payouts, ID verification, and the €300/£300 Host Guarantee. Month-to-month rolling, no minimum term. Hosts keep 95% (5% commission vs 15-20% on some platforms).
How does Packhood verify hosts?
Three-step verification: email confirmation, phone verification, and Stripe Connect identity checks (government ID + bank account). Hosts with low ratings or policy violations are delisted. All profiles show verification status, response time and review score.
Can I store garden furniture and BBQs over winter?
Yes — garages, sheds and covered parking spaces keep garden furniture protected from frost, rain and UV damage. Clean and dry all items before storing. Stack chairs, wrap cushions in breathable covers, and disconnect gas from BBQs. A 5 m² space on Packhood fits a full patio set, BBQ and parasol for around €55-85/month over winter.
What happens if the host cancels?
Full refund to your original payment method. Packhood's trust team helps you find a comparable space in your area. Hosts with repeated cancellations are delisted to protect renter experience.
Is Packhood available in my area?
Packhood is live in Ireland, the United Kingdom and the Netherlands across 240+ towns and cities. If your area doesn't have listings yet, you can be the first host — early hosts in new areas typically book fastest as they have no local competition.
Can I store my car or vehicle?
Yes — driveways, garages, parking spaces and lock-ups are among the most popular listings. Filter by "driveway" or "parking" on the search page. Caravans, motorbikes, boats and trailers are also welcome. Vehicles with fuel must be disclosed in the booking.
Where should I store furniture during a renovation?
A garage or spare room within 10 minutes of your home is ideal — close enough for easy access if you need something mid-project. Most kitchen and bathroom renovations require 8-15 m² of temporary storage for 4-8 weeks. Wrap furniture in dust sheets, photograph each item, and label boxes by room. Packhood's month-to-month terms fit renovation timelines perfectly.
How is Packhood pricing calculated per square metre?
Packhood listings show a flat monthly price set by the host, not a per-square-metre rate. However, the average works out to €5-12/m²/month versus €15-30/m²/month at commercial chains. The listed price is all-inclusive — Packhood's 20% service fee is already factored in. No admin fees, no insurance upsells, no exit charges.
Where can I store a motorbike securely?
Garages, lock-ups and covered parking spaces on Packhood are ideal for motorbike storage. A single bike fits in as little as 3 m². Filter by "garage" and look for listings with a deadbolt or padlock, CCTV, and weather-sealed doors. Average cost is €50-90/month — significantly less than commercial motorcycle storage compounds.
Is there storage available near universities?
Packhood has listings within 2 km of most major universities across Ireland, the UK and the Netherlands. Search by your university's postcode and sort by distance. Student-heavy areas like Dublin 2/4, Manchester M13, Leeds LS6, Amsterdam Zuidoost and Cork's Victorian Quarter typically have the highest density of available spaces.
