Storage Built for University of Dundee Students

Student Storage built around the most international university we serve.

UniStore Scotland is a Scottish family business that has been moving and storing students’ belongings for nearly fifty years. We’re not a national app routing you through a London call centre — our drivers are local, and we know the difference between Belmont, Belmont Tower and Balfour Flats.

The University of Dundee is a properly global university — around 25% of students come from outside the UK, representing 140+ countries. That’s the highest international ratio of any Scottish university we serve, and it shapes how this whole service is designed. Most international students are flying home for summer with strict airline baggage limits, so leaving a year’s worth of belongings in Dundee — safely, affordably, with someone who’ll bring it back to your new room in September — is the only sensible option.

And because we know student budgets are tight — especially at the end of the academic year — we don’t ask you to pay everything up front. You pay 40% to lock in your collection, and the remaining 60% when we’re bringing your stuff safely back into your hands.

International & study-abroad students

The most international university in our service area.

25%

UoD students from outside the UK
Drawn from 140+ countries — one of the most international student bodies of any university we serve. Whether you’re flying home to Lagos, Mumbai, Beijing, Boston or anywhere in between, shipping a year’s worth of belongings is rarely the right call.

Going home for the summer

Shipping boxes to most countries costs more than a year of storage with us — and that’s before airline baggage fees of £75 per kilo over allowance. Pack your room before exams finish, we collect on the day of your choice, and we hold everything safely in our heated and alarmed Edinburgh warehouse.

No customs forms. No shipping companies. No risk of your books arriving in pieces. Your stuff will be waiting when you fly back in September.

Studying abroad next semester?

Heading off on a year abroad as part of your UoD programme — whether to North America, Europe, East Asia or anywhere else? We can store your belongings for the full duration: 6 months, 9 months, 12 months, whatever you need.

Charge per box per week, with full refunds for any unused weeks if you come back early. We’ll redeliver to your new accommodation when you return.

Doing a placement at Ninewells?

A lot of UoD Medicine, Dentistry and Life Sciences students do clinical placements based at Ninewells Hospital and may need to relocate within the city — or store stuff briefly between leases. We handle short-term storage just as easily as full-summer.

No minimum contract, charge per box per week, redelivery to wherever in Dundee you end up.

FAQs

Dundee University Student Storage Questions

Display none

The most cost-effective way to store your belongings is usually through a “pay-per-box” storage service rather than renting a full self-storage unit. At UniStore Scotland, we offer budget-friendly packages specifically designed for students, ensuring you only pay for the space you actually use.

Do you collect from Heathfield, Belmont and other UoD halls?
Yes. We collect from every Sanctuary Students-managed UoD residence including Heathfield (426 students at 75 Old Hawkhill, DD1 5EN), Belmont Flats (340 students at 76 Old Hawkhill, DD1 4HE), Belmont Tower & Balfour Flats, Seabraes 1 & 2 (411 students at Seabraes Court, DD1 4LA), West Park Flats and West Park Villas on Perth Road. Collection is from the building’s main reception or entrance.
When does Semester 2 end at the University of Dundee?
For 2025/26, Semester 2 runs from Monday 19 January to Friday 22 May 2026. Most students need to clear their accommodation in the days following their final exam, so collection slots from mid-May to early June fill up quickly. Semester 1 of 2026/27 starts Monday 21 September 2026.
Which University of Dundee halls do you collect from?
We collect from every UoD residence: Belmont Flats, Belmont Tower & Balfour Flats, Heathfield, Seabraes 1, Seabraes 2, West Park Flats and West Park Villas. We also collect from every private student block in Dundee — including Peterson Hall, The Hub, Lyon Street Terrace and Meadowside Court — plus all private flats throughout the West End and city centre.
I'm an international student flying home for the summer — does that work?
Absolutely — and you’re not alone. Around 25% of UoD students come from outside the UK, representing 140+ countries. Shipping boxes home to most countries costs more than a year of storage with us, before you factor in airline excess baggage charges of £75 per kilo over allowance. Pack your room before exams finish, we collect on the day of your choice, and we hold everything safely in our heated and alarmed Edinburgh warehouse until you fly back in September. We’ll redeliver to your new accommodation.
How much does Dundee student storage cost?
Storage starts from £1.50 per box per week. You only pay for the exact boxes and weeks you use, with unused weeks refunded. Free double-walled boxes, free packing tape, a free marker pen, free printed labels and free door-to-door collection and redelivery throughout Dundee are all included. There are no hidden fees and no minimum contract length.
How does the 40/60 payment split work?
You pay 40% at the time of booking to secure your collection slot, warehouse space and free packing materials. The remaining 60% is collected on the day before we redeliver your belongings — so you only finish paying when you have your things back. We’re the only Scottish student storage company that does it this way, because we think it’s the fairest approach.
Can you collect from a flat on Perth Road or in the West End?
Yes. We cover all of Dundee — Perth Road, the West End, City Centre, Hawkhill, Hilltown, Stobswell, Lochee and Broughty Ferry. Collection from private flats is from the ground floor or main building entrance, so no need to wrestle boxes down a tenement stair.
Can I store bikes, suitcases or large items?
Yes. Alongside boxes, we accept suitcases, bicycles, musical instruments, sports equipment and reasonable-sized furniture items. Use our online calculator to get a quote for any combination of items.
Studying abroad next semester?
If you’re heading off on a year abroad — whether to North America, Europe, Asia or anywhere else — we can store your belongings for the full duration. Charge per box per week, with full refunds for any unused weeks. We’ll redeliver to your new Dundee accommodation when you return.
Is my stuff safe in storage?
Your belongings are stored inside our centrally located, fully alarmed Edinburgh warehouse — heated and insulated, with 24/7 CCTV. We don’t use outdoor metal containers exposed to the wet Scottish elements. Everything is logged against your order number when it arrives, so nothing gets misplaced.
When should I book to guarantee a slot?
Mid-May to early June is our busiest two-week window across Dundee. Book by early-May so you can relax and focus on your exams knowing your storage is sorted. The 40% deposit is fully transferable if your dates change, so there’s no penalty for booking early — and getting your free boxes early gives you more time to pack.
What if my plans change?
That’s exactly why we built our service the way we did. You can change your collection or redelivery date free of charge, and any unused full weeks of storage are refunded. We’re flexible because student plans change — that’s just life.
