Subscription box collection

How subscription box lockers works →Self-storage lockers for student accommodation
Give students secure self-storage where they live — during term for bikes, sports gear and bulky items, and over the summer for belongings they don't want to carry home.
Where to start, by audience
Students
Store belongings over the summer instead of shipping them home, and keep bulky items out of small rooms during term.
Accommodation providers
Free up rooms for summer lets and conference guests while residents' belongings stay safely on site.
Universities and colleges
Offer a practical storage option at move-out and arrival, when demand peaks.
