Cardiff University’s main campus sits at Cathays Park, just north of central Cardiff, with around 33,000 students. Halls include Talybont, the largest residence, plus Senghennydd Court, University Hall, Aberdare Hall and Roy Jenkins Hall. Most tenancies end in early to mid July, so summer storage is the easy way to clear your room without taking everything home between tenancies.
How it works for Cardiff students
It is completely door to door. We send a packing kit, you pack at your own pace, we collect from your hall or house, we store everything for up to 16 weeks, and we redeliver anywhere on the UK mainland when you are back. See exactly how UniMove works, step by step.

Why students choose collection over self-storage
Self-storage usually means hiring a van, carrying everything yourself, and paying for more space than you need. We collect from your door at Talybont or wherever you live around Cathays, store your things over summer, and bring them back when you return. No van, no heavy lifting, timed around your July move-out.
