About student storage in Newcastle city centre

Newcastle city centre houses a growing cluster of purpose-built student accommodation (PBSA) blocks alongside Newcastle University halls. The biggest PBSA concentrations sit along Westgate Road, Pilgrim Street, St James Boulevard, and the area around the Helix district that grew out of the old Science Central site. Operators include Unite Students, iQ, Vita Student, and Crown House. Newcastle University main campus sits at the northern edge of the city centre and Northumbria University main campus is directly adjacent, so most PBSA blocks are within a five to ten minute walk of both.

Newcastle city centre sits inside the Tyneside Clean Air Zone, in force since 2023, which charges non-compliant vehicles. UniMove uses CAZ-compliant vehicles so the charge does not pass through. PBSA blocks have concierge-managed loading bays which we pre-book for each collection slot. Vehicle access through the central pedestrian streets is restricted; we time arrivals to the building permitted slot. Typical PBSA residents store four to six boxes given the studio and en-suite room sizes. Tenancies align with Newcastle Uni or Northumbria years and end in early July.

Why students choose collection and storage instead of self-storage

Traditional self-storage often means hiring a van, carrying everything yourself, and paying for more space than you need. UniMove student-focused collection and storage service is simpler, especially if you are leaving halls, sharing transport with housemates, or heading home for summer.
