MyPlace – SelfStorage is a storage room provider that has been creating space for life since 1999. As the industry market leader in the German-speaking region, we are always nearby – with over 62 locations in 3 countries and a team of more than 200 employees.
We offer safe, clean, dry and non-transparent storage units from a size of 1 m2 in major German, Austrian and Swiss cities. We appeal to both private customers and commercial enterprises who wish to independently store goods and items with us.
As a full-range supplier and strong partner, we also provide you with packaging materials, unit locks and the appropriate insurance protection for your stored goods.
A wide range of additional services (such as transport and relocation assistance, waste disposal service or shelf installation) completes our offer. We cooperate with hand-picked partners who offer MyPlace – Self-Storage users particularly attractive conditions.
MyPlace – SelfStorage currently has 55 locations in major German, Austrian and Swiss cities.
It’s quite simple and straightforward: Our experienced SelfStorage team is available during office hours (Mon - Fri 8:30 am - 5:30 pm, Sat 9:00 am - 1:00 pm) to help you choose the storage unit that best suits your individual needs. If you do not have time for a visit, you can also receive consultation via our toll-free hotlines (Germany: 0800 491 491 0, Austria: 0800 244 244, Switzerland: 0800 491 491) or make use of our live chat.
Once you have decided on the right unit and an insurance option, the contract is concluded as easily as for a rental car. Whether analog contract conclusion on site or digital booking via our online tool: Your storage room will be accessible to you immediately every day from 6:00 am to 10:00 pm.
You can gain access to the storage area and unit directly from the car or elevator via short, bright, level paths by entering an 8-digit access code. You will receive this code directly upon conclusion of the contract.
A personal padlock is used to secure your storage unit, which you can obtain from our shop or our lock vending machine in the loading yard.
The rental fee is a fixed price, which varies according to unit size and availability and is billed every 4 weeks.
In addition, a deposit in the amount of 6 weeks' rent is required at the beginning of the rental period.
The deposit will be fully refunded to you upon proper return.
In addition, you are required to take out an insurance policy for your storage unit. You can arrange this either through your own household/contents insurance or the unit insurance offer from our insurance partners (see question: Are the contents of my unit insured?).
The rental of a storage unit includes the following costs:

The lease can start at any time.
The minimum rental period is 2 weeks. If you take advantage of our 2-week or 4-week free promotion, the minimum rental period increases to 4 or 8 weeks. In addition, you can individually adjust the term to your needs. Rental contracts are generally concluded for an indefinite period.
Of course, we are happy about long-term relationships: We reward the loyalty of our long-term tenants with a discount of -15% on the annual rental amount (in case of prepayment).
Should you wish to leave us, you can terminate the tenancy weekly on the due date while abiding by a 2-week notice period.
Your first storage rental, the deposit and the premium for the storage unit insurance policy taken out through us are to be paid upon conclusion of the contract. This payment can be made in cash or by EC or credit card (MasterCard, Visa, Diners Club) at the respective location.
Should you conclude your contract online, you can choose to pay the amount by instant bank transfer or credit card payment.
Subsequent rentals can be paid by direct debit, bank transfer, cash, debit (EC) or credit card.
Determining the right storage unit size can be challenging because space requirements are usually overestimated (see question: How can I save money?).
To immediately determine the appropriate size, we recommend contacting our experienced warehouse professionals during a site visit, online chat or (toll-free) call to our hotlines (Germany: 0800 491 491 0, Austria: 0800 244 244, Switzerland: 08000800 491 491).

Just like the contents of a rented apartment, insurance must also be taken out for the contents of a rented storage space since in both cases the “homeowner” is only liable for damages to the building.
Therefore, we recommend users to insure their unit contents accordingly. This protection can be organized either through your own household insurance or through a unit insurance offered by us.

From many years of experience, we know that many prospective renters overestimate their actual space requirements and discover during on-site visits that they need far less than originally anticipated.
Therefore, we recommend that you take advantage of the free consultation offered by our warehouse professionals before signing a contract. Our team is available to you on site, via our (toll-free) hotlines (Germany: 0800 491 491 0, Austria: 0800 244 244, Switzerland: 0800 491 491) or live chat.
If you are planning to store the contents of an entire apartment, the following rule of thumb applies: 10% of the former living space = required storage space.
Not all storage units are the same: In addition to standard shapes, we also offer units with special layouts, columns or roof slopes. We rent these rooms at particularly favorable conditions.
Our storage units provide space for a wide variety of items and goods. However, some storage items are prohibited for safety reasons.
These include:
Safe storage of your items, documents and goods is very important to us.
Therefore, we ensure the following:
Rapid temperature fluctuations that could affect furniture, household goods or other objects are principally avoided. Detailed information regarding temperature and humidity values that are proactively recorded and controlled can be found on the respective location website.
Even in cool outdoor temperatures, your items are safe from cold exposure since our buildings are heated continuously during the winter season to ensure frost resistance.
We place great emphasis on cleanliness because we want to offer an appealing and inviting ambiance. Moreover, we use modern ventilation systems to ensure a dry indoor climate that prevents the formation of moisture and condensation. We store warehouse goods in the dark; therefore, your unit contents are protected from light exposure and fading.
Each of our locations has 800 to 1,200 storage units of various sizes (from 1 m2 to 50 m2). Shape and room heights (usually between 2.5 and 3 m) vary, offering the greatest possible flexibility.
If you need more space, storage units ranging from 50 m2 to 200 m2 are also available at some locations.
Our warehouse professionals will be happy to advise you on individual space requirements as well as specific unit sizes. Our team is available to you at the location of your choice, via our toll-free hotlines (Germany: 0800 491 491 0, Austria: 0800 244 244, Switzerland: 0800 491 491) or live chat.
Your storage unit is secured with a personal padlock, which you lock with the associated key or by dialing the previously selected number combination. Additionally, your room is surrounded by solid non-transparent walls to protect your stored items from prying eyes.
The facility itself has a multi-level security concept, which includes individual access controls (by number code), 24-hour video surveillance, the use of state-of-the-art alarm systems and protection by our in-house security service.
No, our storage units are generally not connected to the power supply. However, upon request, it is possible to have power connections and meters installed at your own expense. Contact our warehouse professionals at the location of your choice for clarification on this option.
Of course – depending on the location and the booked storage room, the way to your unit can vary. Therefore, we provide a sufficient number of free rolling and lifting carts with which you can easily move pallets and stored goods of various sizes, shapes and weights from your means of transport to the storage room. The fact that spacious freight elevators are available and that ground-level access is provided throughout makes storage even easier.
A move needs to be well planned.
Therefore, we recommend the following:
