Off-campus student storage in Milan
Leave furniture, boxes and anything crowding your room with us: we put them in the space you need — starting at one square metre — and you pay a monthly rate. We pick up at any address within the municipality of Milan: home, university residence or an agreed spot.

When you need room storage
You have landed in Milan and housing is not sorted yet
Erasmus student or new enrolment? Until you have a room of your own, we keep the boxes and furniture you do not need to live out of a rented room.
Switching rooms between one rental and the next
You left your room and the next one frees up in a few months? Smoves keeps everything safe, and you pay only for the months you need.
A semester away, or an internship in another city
Away for a few months and you would rather not pay for an empty room in Milan? Leave what you are not taking with us.
Exams and study sessions
Want to free your room from boxes and furniture to concentrate better? We take them away during exam season.
Between bachelor and master
Changing course, city, residence? Store your furniture and boxes while you decide the next step.
Home for the holidays, room left empty

Off-campus student storage FAQs
What is off-campus student storage?
It is storage for furniture, boxes and room items, built for months rather than hours: you rent the space your things take up — starting at one square metre — and pay a monthly rate. We come to your door, and it is not an hourly or station-locker service.
What can I put into storage?
Not accepted: battery-powered items or items containing batteries (e.g. smartphones, laptops, tablets, wireless earbuds, power banks, drones, cameras); money and valuables, jewellery, original documents, items worth more than €100, medicines, food and liquids, fragile items, artworks, hazardous or flammable materials, weapons and anything illegal. Mains-powered appliances without a battery are allowed instead (e.g. hair straightener, hair dryer, lamps). If in doubt, message us before pickup.
How long can I leave my things?
It works in months: one month is the minimum, and from there you extend as long as you need — a semester, an internship, a whole year away from home. It is not hourly or daily storage.
Where do you pick up?
We come to any address within the municipality of Milan: home, university residence, student hall or an agreed spot. Enter the address in the booking form and we'll calculate the quote right away.
Can I store furniture and bulky items?
Yes, we accept furniture and bulky items too. Indicate them in the booking form with approximate dimensions and we'll calculate a custom quote.
Do I need to disassemble furniture before pickup?
It's not required, but if you can take apart the bulkiest pieces (bed, desk, wardrobe) pickup is faster. Note the dimensions and whether it's disassembled in the booking form, so we calculate the right quote.
Can I get my things back earlier than planned?
You choose the delivery date when booking. Retrieving earlier than planned isn't guaranteed, but message us in chat: we'll do our best to help, though we can't promise faster timing.
How do you keep the items?
Every item is checked at pickup, labelled with a unique code and logged in our system, and kept in an indoor, dry, access-controlled warehouse. If you notice an issue on delivery, report it right away: we handle it according to the Terms and Conditions.
