Your gateway to the German self storage industry.
Anyone looking into self storage finds plenty of operator websites, but hardly anywhere that explains the market as a whole. That is exactly what we are building.
Pooling knowledge
The market, business models, storage types and investment explained clearly, for newcomers and professionals alike.
Connecting people
Bringing landowners, investors, operators and service providers together so that projects get off the ground.
Making the market visible
Step by step, we are building market data, a directory and studies on the German self storage market.
Who is behind the platform.
selfstorage-investments.de was initiated by CoStore, an operator of container self storage parks. This means we are market participants ourselves. That is why we are open about how we work.
- Clear labelling: Content and listings from CoStore are marked as "Initiator" or "Case study".
- Partners & advertising: Paid listings or articles are labelled "Premium" or "Advertisement".
- Open to all storage types: We present indoor self storage, storage containers, drive-up, garage parks and business storage with their strengths and limitations.
- Sources: Market figures are always cited with their source and marked as indicative values.
- Not investment advice: Our calculators and content are for information only, not advice.
