In 5 minutes to your storage unit: online booking

Renting a storage unit has never been easier: choose location, determine size, book online – done. We guide you step by step through the booking process and explain the 1 euro special offer, the weekly price display and flexible rental periods.

Renting a storage unit sounds like paperwork, viewing appointments and waiting times? Not with Squarefoot: With us, the entire rental process is digital. From the first click to the fully booked storage unit takes less than five minutes on average – completely online, 24/7 and without a single phone call. In this article, we guide you step by step through the booking process while explaining how our price display and current 1 euro special offer work.

Step 1: Choose location

First comes the question: Where should your storage unit be located? Ideally somewhere you pass by regularly anyway – near your flat, on your commute or near your favourite supermarket. Squarefoot operates around 29 locations for self storage in Vienna, three locations in Graz as well as further sites in Linz, St. Pölten, Vösendorf near the SCS and Gablitz. You can find the overviews here: all self storage locations in Vienna and all self storage locations in Graz.

Step 2: Determine size and check price

In the next step, select the size of your storage unit – from a compact box for a few cartons to a unit for complete household furniture. As a rule of thumb: Dismantled and neatly stacked, the contents of a room fit into a significantly smaller unit than most people expect.

When it comes to price, we rely on full transparency with a weekly price display: You see the current weekly price directly online for every available size. This makes comparing easy – you can tell at a glance what difference a smaller or larger unit makes, and calculate your storage duration realistically. As a rule: smaller units start at a low weekly price, larger ones are tiered accordingly. For a detailed overview of what determines the price, see our page on self storage costs.

Step 3: Book online and get started immediately

Once you have chosen a location and size, complete the actual booking on our booking page: set your preferred start date, enter contact details, choose payment method – done. You will receive all documents and access details digitally and can use your storage unit in Vienna or Graz from your booked start day. No viewing appointment required, no waiting time, no paperwork.

By the way: If you are unsure about the size, that's no problem. If you realise while moving in that you need more or less space, simply switch to a more suitable unit – so you never pay long-term for space you don't use.

The 1 euro special offer: first month almost free

For new customers, there is currently a particularly attractive deal: the first month costs just 1 euro. The only requirement is a minimum term of two months - so you rent for at least two months and pay just a symbolic euro for the first one. Perfect if you are storing items for a move, renovation or transition period, as it covers a large part of your storage duration at the lowest price. The special offer is automatically applied during online booking - you don't need to do anything else.

Rental period and cancellation: stay flexible

Apart from the promotion, Squarefoot offers maximum flexibility: the minimum rental period is 30 days, after which your storage unit is cancelable monthly. So you don't have to commit to how long you will need the space - if your project takes longer, the contract simply continues; if you finish earlier, you can easily cancel at the end of the month. Switching to a larger or smaller unit is also possible at any time if your space requirements change.

Summary: booked today, created space today

Select location, choose size, book - that's all it takes to get your own storage unit. Thanks to weekly pricing display, you know exactly where you stand in advance, start out particularly cheap with the 1-euro deal, and monthly cancellation keeps all your options open. Try it out: book your storage unit online now - five minutes well invested, and your new storage space is already waiting for you.
