PRAGUE: MORE SPACE WITHOUT MOVING
Living in Prague is a privilege for many: cozy cafés, walkable neighborhoods, vibrant cultural life, and unmatched architectural charm make the Czech capital one of the most desirable places to live, both for locals and expats. However, anyone who has chosen to live in the heart of the city knows that this lifestyle often comes with a significant challenge: lack of space. Apartments especially those in central or historic neighborhoods rarely include attics, basements, or spare rooms to store the items we don’t need every day. The result? Skis under the bed, Christmas decorations piled in the hallway, and out-of-season clothes stuffed into every available corner.
To meet this increasingly common need, a smart and growing solution has emerged: self storage. While already popular in many Western cities, this practice is now gaining traction in Prague, as more and more residents discover how to free up space at home without the hassle of moving.
A modern response to urban living
In the past, renting a storage unit was seen as something reserved for major life events moving, long-term travel, or downsizing. Today, self storage is becoming a practical, everyday solution to reclaim domestic order and peace of mind.
A leading example in this growing sector is Less Mess Storage, a Czech-Polish company that has tapped into this demand with four modern, well equipped facilities located in Holešovice, Dejvice, and Pankrác. Their service is designed to meet the needs of urban residents looking for flexible, reliable ways to expand their living space without leaving the city.
Flexibility and convenience come first
One of the biggest advantages Less Mess Storage offers is the option to rent a unit for as little as 30 days, with no long-term commitment required. This makes it ideal for anyone renovating a home, transitioning between apartments, or simply looking for temporary storage for seasonal gear, documents, or furniture.
The selection is surprisingly wide: from compact 0.5 sqm lockers to spacious 30 sqm units. All facilities are accessible 24/7, climate-controlled, and equipped with modern security systems. Customers benefit from on-site trolleys, elevators, packing materials, and even a package receiving and shipping service a feature many appreciate.
A valuable resource for small businesses
It’s not just private residents who benefit. Increasingly, freelancers, e-commerce owners, artisans, and small business operators are turning to self storage to better manage their operations. Instead of turning their living rooms into shipping hubs, they can rent a secure, accessible storage space and run their business more efficiently.
For these users, Less Mess Storage becomes an extension of their workplace. With logistics support and parcel reception, the service helps streamline supply chains, reduce clutter at home, and free up valuable mental space.
A simple, transparent process
Renting a storage unit is easier than you might think. It can be done directly online choosing the unit size and contract length or in person at any facility, where trained staff can help determine the best option based on your needs. Each customer receives a personal access code for secure entry and can use their own padlock or purchase one on-site.
Contracts can be fixed-term or open-ended, with just 30 days’ notice required for cancellation. Customers are free to upgrade or downsize their unit at any time, depending on how their storage needs evolve.
In today’s world, personal well-being is often closely linked to a clean, organized home environment. That’s why self storage is emerging as a smart, flexible, and affordable solution for many. Whether you need temporary room for overflow belongings or a physical base to support a growing business, companies like Less Mess Storage offer a practical alternative to moving or living in chaos.
Prague is changing, and so are the habits of its residents. And when space starts to run out, there’s now a simple solution to stay in the city comfortably.
