Introduction to the Storage Share app

All 60+ Storage Share locations have been successfully migrated to the 1Stalling platform. What sounds simple turned out to be a large-scale technical project in practice. Together, we first set up an API connection and then migrated all locations one by one.

The result: a single centralised system, improved access control, the ability to book a storage unit entirely online, and access via the Storage Share app.Thanks to the team who made this possible, with a special mention for Niels (project lead and programmer), Jaap (planning & implementation), Josse (installation) and our partner 1Stalling for their excellent technical collaboration.

2024-2025

Another award win

Storage Share is the highest-rated rental company in the Netherlands! We have been named number one in the Huurtopper 2024 list by huren.nl. We also won our fourth FD Gazellen award, once again placing us amongst the fastest-growing companies in the Netherlands, and secured a place in the FT1000 for the third year running, recognising us as one of the 1,000 fastest-growing companies in Europe according to the Financial Times. 

2024

Acquisition of Boxx

In the summer of 2024, we took over nine sites from the bankrupt storage company Boxx. In doing so, we prevented the belongings of more than 3,000 tenants from ending up on the street. As well as the takeover, we also moved into our new office on Isolatorweg in Amsterdam.

2024

Revamped website

On 1 December 2016, we launched our website, which remained largely unchanged, apart from minor updates, until early 2024. We are now focusing entirely on long-term leases of commercial premises, converted into modern self-storage facilities. Time for a new website! The focus has shifted from low cost to quality – still affordable, with fair prices and no hidden costs.

Thanks to our growing number of branches, we’re achieving ever-better nationwide coverage. Our excellent customer service is always close at hand. 

We have now helped over 14,000 tenants find the perfect storage unit and are proud of their appreciation and our excellent reviews.

2024

Once again, one of Europe’s fastest-growing companies

In 2024, Storage Share is once again ranked among Europe’s 1,000 fastest-growing companies according to the Financial Times’ FT1000. We are one of 31 Dutch companies on the list and are ranked 681st this time.

2023

FD Gazellen Awards for three years running

For the third year running, we have been ranked among the fastest-growing companies in the Netherlands and have received an FD Gazellen Award.

2022 - 2023

More and more locations

Every month, we transform buildings into attractive Storage Share sites, such as those in Venlo, Beek en Donk, Hardenberg, Heerjansdam, Zutphen, Edam, Elburg, Diemen, Putten, Emmen, Drachten and Assen. We are also continually expanding our existing sites. More and more people are using our service to their full satisfaction.

2023

One of Europe’s fastest-growing companies!

Storage Share has been included in the prestigious FT-1000 2023 list compiled by the renowned British newspaper the Financial Times, with growth of 401.3 per cent. We are ranked 394th and are one of the 14 Dutch companies on the list.

2022

Another award win

In 2022, we once again received an FD Gazellen Award and were once again ranked among the top 50 in the Deloitte Technology Fast 50. In addition, we were named by MT/Sprout as one of the 50 most challenging, innovative and fast-growing companies in the Netherlands.

2022 - 2023

Improved visibility

As well as opening new sites, we’re working on raising our profile. Our premises are easily recognisable thanks to the distinctive Storage Share blue colours. Our vans, manned by our colleagues, can regularly be seen on the road carrying out maintenance and inspections.

2022

A unique venue

In 2022, we shifted our focus entirely to transforming buildings into high-quality self-storage facilities. We opened our most unique facility at Roda JC’s Parkstad Limburg stadium, with 165 new storage units beneath the stands.

2021

First FD Gazellen Award

In 2021, we received the FD Gazellen Award for the first time, a prize for the fastest-growing companies in the Netherlands.

2021

Third place in the Technology Fast 50

In the prestigious 2021 Deloitte Technology Fast 50, we were named the third-fastest-growing tech company in the Netherlands, with revenue growth of 2,628 per cent.

2021

Five years of Storage Share

In the space of five years, we have:

  • Helped more than 5,000 tenants
  • Received 15,000 tenancy applications
  • Received an average rating of 8.9 from our tenants
  • Opened 86 storage locations
  • Created more than 4,000 storage units
2019 - 2020

Further expansion

In 2019 and 2020, our focus was on opening new sites, such as in Groningen, Meppel, Sneek, Veendam and Hoofddorp. We worked step by step towards establishing a nationwide network of modern storage facilities.

December 2018

First "own" premises

Our growth enabled us to take on long-term leases on premises and convert them into self-storage facilities. In Hoogeveen, we opened our first own branch in the former Autodrome building, which filled up in no time at all. We have since expanded this site on several occasions.

The Dagblad van het Noorden published a nice article about the opening of this branch. 

2017 - 2018

Growth through office premises

Even before its launch in 2016, property firms recognised the potential of our platform. They were able to generate income from vacant offices, garage spaces and storage units via Storage Share. This attracted interest from Merin and Annexum and led to an article on the Vastgoedjournaal website.

In 2017 and 2018, the number of locations grew rapidly and more and more property companies approached us with vacant office buildings. We focused entirely on this and put these properties to good use. NVM magazine published a great article on this.

Mei 2017

Nominated for the Young Business Award

We were one of the 12 companies nominated for the Young Business Award, co-organised by MT/Sprout. Although we didn’t win, the jury’s praise was a recognition of our potential.

2017

Pi Labs accelerator in London

Even before our launch, we caught the attention of Pi Labs, a UK-based tech property investor. We were selected for their annual accelerator programme, which led to an article in *De Telegraaf*. In London, we gained a great deal of knowledge and worked hard on our platform.

1 december 2016

Together, we have the space

After months of preparation, we launched the Storage Share platform on 1 December 2016 with the slogan “Together, we have the space”. The first providers and tenants soon followed, and our adventure really began!

We had a great explanatory video made especially for the launch.

2016

The beginnings of Storage Share

In the summer of 2016, Julian and Niels began developing Storage Share. Their idea was to create a platform where people offering storage space could connect with those looking for it – from a storage room or garage to an attic. The Entrepreneur magazine, amongst others, wrote about it.
