Mobile self storage in Cheltenham. Pod on your driveway. No driving to a depot.

Pod arrives on your driveway at 9am, you load it, we collect by 6pm and take it to our Oxfordshire depot. Booked online in 90 seconds.
Why Cheltenham chooses mobile over a warehouse
Cheltenham is a town of tall Regency houses, narrow Victorian terraces and listed crescents. Almost none of them were designed for a hire van and a trolley. Driving back and forth to a self-storage warehouse out by the A40 and signing a 12-month warehouse contract is the old way of doing it.
Mobile self storage flips it. We bring the pod to your door: a Regency townhouse in Montpellier, an Edwardian semi in Lansdown, a family house in Charlton Kings, a Victorian terrace in Pittville, a cottage in Prestbury, or a leafy detached in Leckhampton. You load it in front of your own house, in one day. We take it back to our 28-mile-away depot in Faringdon. Same money. Half the work. Zero hire vans on the Promenade.
Note on distance: Cheltenham sits right on our 30-mile boundary. Central GL50–GL53 pass the gate; some far-west GL51 toward Gloucester may not. The postcode gate confirms instantly.

Cheltenham questions
Is Cheltenham inside your 30-mile radius?
Central Cheltenham (GL50, GL52, GL53, most of GL51) sits right on our 30-mile boundary. Most addresses pass, some at the western edge of GL51 toward Gloucester do not. The postcode gate confirms instantly.
Can you store our Cheltenham Festival hospitality kit between March meetings?
Yes. Strong fit. A 250cuft pod (£30/week + £99 collection) holds a substantial marquee fit-out’s worth of furniture, glassware and signage. Book collection in the week after Gold Cup, store through summer, book return delivery before the November meeting.
Our place is a listed Regency house with railings and steps. Any access issues?
The trailer parks at kerbside (about 8m × 3m). Loading is across the pavement and up your front steps, the same as a normal house move. If you’ve got a basement service entrance or a side gate, that often makes loading easier. Mention listed status in the booking notes.
How does this compare to Big Yellow Cheltenham or Safestore?
Big Yellow Cheltenham (Tewkesbury Road) typically charges £35–£55/week for a 25–35sqft unit, plus you drive a hire van across town, plus 4-week prepay, plus insurance fee. We’re £30/week for an equivalent-volume pod, plus we deliver to your front door. See comparison page.
Where do you store the pod?
Our depot is in Faringdon, Oxfordshire, about 28 miles south-east of Cheltenham via the A40 and A420. Dry, alarmed, CCTV monitored, full pod insurance included.
