Storage Units Limerick – The Best Way To Make Space in the Mid West
With history everywhere you turn, an unbelievable sporting heritage, a vibrant cultural heart and a thriving tech and business scene, Limerick is a city that’s really buzzing. From the University of Limerick to the innovation hubs in Castletroy and Raheen, with Shannon airport on its doorstep and an infrastructure system that links it to everywhere in Ireland, it’s a city that’s all about creativity, progress and community.
A constantly evolving city means a constantly growing population and with that comes a familiar urban problem – space, or rather lack of it. Whether you’re moving house, running a growing business, attending university or simply decluttering, self-storage is the smart, flexible way to create more room to live. So while Limerick living ticks all the boxes, let’s take a look at boxes of a different kind – storage boxes, or rather storage units in Limerick – THE best way to make space in the mid-west.

Why Limerick Residents Are Turning to Self Storage
Did you know that apparently the official demonym for people from Limerick is ‘Limerickians’? Us neither. Doesn’t really trip off the tongue, does it? Whatever you call them, however, Limerick folk are busy. Professionals, students, business owners, residents – Ireland’s third largest city is a fantastic place to carve out some space for yourself. Here’s why Limerickians of all sorts need extra, and so choose a self-storage solution:
Keys To Your Life
So you’re all packed up and ready to go – but your new home isn’t. For many reasons, there can be a gap in time between moving from one property to another. Maybe you’ve moved out of the old address but haven’t found a new one that’s just right, just yet. Maybe you’re super-organised and have started packing well in advance of your move? Self Storage is a wonderful way to keep your belongings safe, and all together, temporarily. Self Storage can also be a great solution when you’re prepping your home for viewings – check out our guide here https://www.storageworld.ie/blog/staging-your-home-preparing-your-home-for-sale-viewings/
A Grand Design
Dust, damage and fuss isn’t the half of it if you’re doing a big reno job. Sometimes the best way to get things done is get yourself – and all of your stuff – well out of the way so that the job can be done with ease, and you can return to a brand new living space. Stashing your belongings in self storage keeps them clean, safe and undamaged for when you finally get to go home.

University Challenge
Heading away to college is such an amazing experience but with university terms come university holidays, semesters abroad, work experience or just heading home to Mammy to recharge the batteries or get an oul’ bitta study done. With approximately 30,000 students in Limerick city, that’s a lot of stuff to be stored if you can’t – or don’t wish to – hang on to your term-time accommodation when you’re away getting a taste of life. And it’s sometimes not practical or possible to drag it all the way home in May only to drag it all the way back again when the new term starts. Self-storage, with its flexibility and short-term rental potential, is such a practical way to take care of it all so that it’s all to hand when scholars get back to the grind in the autumn. Why not split the cost and share with classmates? We’ve got everything you need to know right here:
