About student storage in Mill Road, Cambridge

Mill Road runs east from central Cambridge across the railway line to Romsey, and is the densest student-rental area in the city outside the college accommodation system. Most Mill Road student housing is in Victorian terraces on side streets like Cavendish Road, Sedgwick Street, and Romsey Terrace. It’s popular with Anglia Ruskin students (whose main campus sits at East Road, off the western end of Mill Road) plus University of Cambridge postgraduates and senior undergraduates. Cambridge station is at the western end.

Mill Road itself has bus-lane and bus-gate restrictions during peak hours and a residents’-permit scheme on the side streets. UniMove collections here are typically scheduled before 10am or after 4pm to work around the permit window. The end-of-Anglia-Ruskin-tenancy peak hits in mid June; University of Cambridge students vacate slightly earlier (mid June Trinity term end). Typical Mill Road student residents store six to eight boxes.

What students usually store

  • Suitcases and boxes
  • Clothes and bedding
  • Kitchen items
  • Books and study equipment
  • Small furniture
  • Sports equipment

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’s student-focused collection and storage service is simpler — especially if you are leaving halls, sharing transport with housemates, or heading home for summer.
