Pricing

How much does self storage cost in Bradford?+

Space Buddy storage units start from £4.75 per week for our Pico student lockers (10 sq ft) — or £2.50/week during the Founding 50 launch (50% off months 1–3). Larger units range from £7.25/week (Nano, 15 sq ft) up to £72.00/week (Ultra, 150+ sq ft). No deposit required. Minimum rental is 1 week. Prices shown are before VAT.

Is there a deposit?+

No deposit required at all. You pay your first week's rent upfront and that's it. No large lump sums, no refund hassles when you leave.

Contracts

How long do I have to rent for?+

Minimum rental is 1 week. There is no maximum — you can rent for a week, a month, or several years. Cancel with just 1 week's notice at any time. No penalty, no exit fees.

Access

Can I access my storage unit at any time?+

Yes. 24/7 access, 365 days a year. Midnight, 5am, Christmas Day — your unit, your schedule. You get your own personal PIN code and electronic lock key. No staff needed, just turn up.

Can you accept deliveries to my unit?+

Yes. During staffed hours (Monday to Friday 9am–6pm, Saturday 9am–4pm), we can accept deliveries from couriers on your behalf. We'll notify you when a delivery arrives and place it securely in your unit. Particularly useful for e-commerce businesses using us for stock storage.

Security

How secure is the facility?+

We have multiple layers of security: 24/7 HD CCTV covering all areas, individual unit alarms (each unit has its own alarm only you can disarm), personal PIN codes for electronic locks, and flood-lit premises. St Stephens Mill, Ripley Street is a solid, secure building. We take security seriously.

Students

Is there a student discount?+

Yes. University of Bradford students get 50% off their first month. Our Pico student lockers (10 sq ft) start from £4.75/week, so your first month works out to just £9.50 with the discount. Just show a valid student ID card at move-in. No online code needed.

Units

What size unit do I need?+

It depends on what you're storing. As a rough guide: Pico (10 sq ft) is good for a student's belongings; Core (25 sq ft) fits a one-bedroom flat's contents; Max (50 sq ft) fits a two-bedroom home; Titan (100 sq ft) fits a four-bedroom house or commercial stock. Use our size calculator to get a personalised recommendation, or just contact us — we're happy to help.

Do I need to bring my own padlock?+

No. Every unit comes with an electronic lock and your personal PIN code. There is no shared key, no padlock to lose, and no one else has your access code. The lock is included in your rental.

Location

Where is Space Buddy located?+

Space Buddy is at St Stephens Mill, Ripley Street, Bradford, BD5 7JW. We are 5 minutes on foot from Bradford Interchange (the main train and bus station), walking distance from the University of Bradford campus, and easily accessible by car from the M606, M62, and A650. There is on-site parking.
