About student storage in Hillhead
Hillhead is the heart of Glasgow’s West End and the densest student rental area in the city, immediately surrounding the University of Glasgow main campus. Most student housing is in Victorian and Edwardian tenement flats on streets like Hillhead Street, Otago Street, Gibson Street, Glasgow Street, and the back streets off Byres Road. The Hillhead Underground station sits at the corner of Byres Road and Great Western Road. Most Hillhead addresses are a five minute walk to the University of Glasgow Main Building.
Hillhead tenements are mostly upper-floor flats with shared close access. UniMove crews handle the close stair loading as standard. Permit parking applies on most streets; collections schedule before 10am or after 4pm. Glasgow LEZ does not cover Hillhead but we use LEZ-compliant vehicles. Tenancies end in early to mid June.
