In densely populated Singapore and limited land for residents and office workers alike, the rise of rental of external storage space to shift possessions that are not immediately needed seems sensible. The idea of de-cluttering excess baggage has also become fashionable. Hence the surge of storage rental spaces for extra space.
About Storage Space Rental in Singapore
Storage rental spaces are generally large industrial factory spaces divided into leasable lockers and rooms ranging from small to large. Personal and business customers usually rent with intentions to free up space or clear excess clutter. Ladders, trolleys, and collection vans are available for clients to transport possessions to space.

Stella Leow Excellent place. Centrally located and it is always kept very clean. Staff is very efficient, friendly and helpful particularly Ivy. She makes a point to remember me as a customer and gives good advice and suggestions. There was a time, when I was away on an emergency trip and I emailed her for help and she knew exactly who I am and responded quickly, for which I am grateful. Keep up the good work and keep smiling ! |

WAI MENG TANG First June 20 I relocated after 27 years of stay in my house. I have many pieces of furniture to be sent to 3 locations and two lots of furniture and things to be stored in the storage facilities. It was a massive exercise for me. Many thanks to Bernice who has guided me !! Many thanks to a very professional team of movers who worked from 10am (punctual!!)to 8pm. All items were carefully protected and sent to various locations without any problems. All communications were very reassuring and professional since the first day of enquiry. Finally, the pricing is good for the service provided. Best wishes to Spaceship Singapore!! |

“I like that your loading bay and the storage area were clean. I like that it was easy to find my storage space. I like that there’s an air-conditioned workspace for me to carry out my work. No more working in my storage area! Most of all, I like that the staff patiently and confidently answered my questions about storage. I was deciding between several storage areas sizes and the staff patiently showed me around the different rooms and answered my questions.

Trends in Storage Space Rental in Singapore
The scarcity of land in Singapore brings about soaring rental prices as well as soaring property prices. This puts us in a situation akin to that faced by those dwelling in densely populated cities like Japan and Hong Kong, where the idea of storage rental began to help ease congested space. The increase of storage rentals may be a means to address this population rise in a densely populated city and where space becomes increasingly limited and scarce.
Thus, the need to rent external space for thriving ecommerce businesses with limited storage facilities and for households seeking to off load clutter in time for major renovations or changes in family composition. The rise of ecommerce has seen the rising demand for warehousing because business owners lack storage. Unlike the United States where land is abundant and of lower cost, in Singapore space is scarce and priced highly.
The need for inventory management is where rental space comes in as many space rental providers also offer logistics and packing options thus saving manpower costs. In tiny Singapore where space is scarce unlike the United States and with ecommerce replacing retail with most shoppers it is thus necessary to find storage rental to keep up with inventory management and storage.
Many storage spaces in Singapore are located in suburban areas like Eunos Technopark or Jurong industrial areas to minimize rental costs. Those storage spaces located in the central areas tend to be operators who pitch to a different more affluent client base or who seek to reach a larger base island-wide rather than being confine sales to heartland consumers.
Sample costs of Storage Rental Space
Lockers from 14 sq ft are usually available from $42, small rooms from 16 sq ft are available from $74, medium rooms from 34 sq ft are available from $150, large rooms from 45 sq ft from $168, extra-large rooms from 68 sq ft rooms are available from $228, container units from127 sq ft from $415.
All prices quoted are monthly charges excluding shipping and freight. Packages for varied sizes and budgets or further tailoring for specific needs are usually provided in variable quotations upon consultation. Discounts for long term storage or larger billable storage are usually provided upon request.
Benefits of Storage Rental Space
Rental storage space is usually well guarded against theft either by electronic or manual surveillance. Manual or automated labor is generally available to aid transport and delivery. The 24-hour CCTV security surveillance also ensures that any crime or theft is traceable with camera footage. Facial recognition technology also identifies criminals with precision. The pervasive and perpetual nature of electronic surveillance also ensures crimes are traced to perpetrators with efficiency and minimal error. Electronic surveillance also has a wider reach, higher efficiency, and lower cost than manual security.
External storage rental space also declutters homes and offices for aesthetic viewing purposes. With the rise of climate change, businesses also seek to reduce their carbon footprint by maximizing and conserving space. Reducing, reusing and recycling rather than disposing and incinerating large amounts of possessions can also save costs and reduce waste in the long term. The modern consumer lifestyle confronts us with excess possessions, more clothes than we need, more books than we read, more equipment than we actually utilize.
The concept of decluttering does not merely conserve space but also liberates us from having to plow through masses of documents in excess of what we actually need on a daily basis. It also improves the aesthetic viewing experience of a living space as offices or homes with excess clutter are unsightly and unfriendly to guests. The idea of ploughing through a haystack for a needle comes to mind when we throw a room into disarray looking for that lost book or lost record when internet streaming has made such frantic searching unnecessary with online catalogues and access to libraries and streaming of music and entertainment.
As we live through the current industrial revolution, the need for physical copies of books and records becomes unnecessary as these are readily available online. The gradual closure of physical book stores and record shops is a trend we have seen rising and as most shopping and knowledge/leisure consumption turns to virtual platforms we will see less of a need for the tangible, physical copies of books, cinema, records.
The need for high security and surveillance to guard against the theft of valued documents and office equipment and inventory also makes it necessary to outsource security of inventory to storage rental owners as these often employ 24/7 CCTV surveillance and use state of the art technology like facial recognition to make crime highly detectable and traceable to perpetrators of crime. It is almost guaranteed there is a very slim chance of misidentifying a suspect with facial recognition as there is a very high percentage of accurate recognition of identity.
The overall reduction of rental costs for storage in Singapore is significant for owners of ecommerce and events outfits as high rental overheads lead to high operating costs which diminish profit margins. As most storage spaces are located within suburbs unlike showrooms which need central locale to improve human traffic, operating costs are likely to be significantly reduced by outsourcing storage to suburbs with lower rental. Many rental spaces operate in industrial areas like Woodlands with lower rental.
