Door-to-door student storage at Murano Street — how it works

About student storage at Murano Street, Glasgow
Murano Street Student Village is one of the University of Glasgow’s largest residences, a self-catered village in Maryhill just north of the West End. It is a short bus ride or walk to the Gilmorehill campus and home to a large first-year community across many blocks. Scottish terms finish earlier than in England, so move-out runs from late May into June.
Because Murano Street is self-catered with shared flat kitchens, kitchen kit is part of the typical storage run, and flatmates often coordinate a single combined collection so the shared pots, pans and dry goods come out alongside individual boxes. Each block has its own entrance, so our team loads kerbside at the block nearest your flat. If you are an international student flying home for the summer, door-to-door collection with a flexible return is the simplest option. Typical Murano Street residents store five to seven boxes including their share of kitchen items.

Why students choose collection and storage instead of self-storage
Traditional self-storage usually 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 flatmates, or flying home for the summer from Glasgow.
