Everything about SaveSpace, our team and the technology behind a new way of storing things.
SaveSpace at a glance
SaveSpace makes storage simpler – with technology and a service that starts right at your front door.
SaveSpace operates in Germany and Switzerland and combines self-storage with a pickup and delivery service. Customers can have their belongings stored without visiting a storage facility or organising transport themselves. SaveSpace collects the items, stores them and brings them back on request.
SaveSpace also offers removals – combined with interim storage if there is a gap between moving out and moving in.
Alongside its storage service, SaveSpace is developing a technology platform for self-storage operators, which lets them market free storage capacity and tap into additional demand.
