The Swiss storage comparison platform expands to Austria

storabble: Europe’s largest storage comparison portal

The Swiss startup storabble makes it easy to find available storage spaces nearby and compare them at a glance. The platform brings together self-storage boxes, available warehouses, and exclusive spaces rented only through storabble — all in one place — to make finding suitable storage as simple as possible.

storabble now helps tenants in Switzerland, Germany, and — most recently — Austria find and rent nearby storage units.

Expanding to Austria is a natural step for storabble, as the know-how and experience gained in Switzerland and Germany can be easily transferred. The Swiss team has an ambitious goal: to simplify the search for storage across all of Europe.

First market data from Austria: 800 matches in the first month

In its very first month, storabble’s listings already reached relevant tenants in Austria. With over 10,000 ad impressions and 800 successful matches, the platform clearly struck a chord. The founders are delighted with the early positive feedback from Austrian users.

As in other markets, demand is concentrated in major cities — even more so in Austria than in Switzerland or Germany. Encouragingly, storabble already outranks most local businesses on Google for Austria’s top three search queries: Lagerraum mieten Wien, Lagerraum mieten Graz, and Lagerraum mieten Innsbruck.

How much does storage cost in Austria?

On average, storage space in Austria costs €15 per square meter, while a self-storage box costs around €28 per square meter. These figures are confirmed by storabble Analytics (2025) and the official FEDESSA 2024 study.

Prices depend on factors such as location, contract flexibility, and equipment quality. The best way to compare prices is through the overview of available storage units on storabble’s comparison platform.

How to rent a storage unit in Vienna

The easiest way to rent storage in Vienna is by using storabble, Austria’s largest comparison platform for storage spaces. It lists over 200 storage units in Vienna, clearly displayed on an interactive map.

You can find the most suitable option near you using the map or district search. storabble offers three ways to rent:

1. rent directly on the platform,
2. contact the owner via a form, or
3. be redirected to the provider’s website to complete the booking.

Types of storage available in Austria

Austria offers three main types of storage:

1. Self-storage boxes – professionally managed units with multiple boxes available for rent.
2. Closed rooms – regular rooms used as storage, rented individually.
3. Partitioned compartments – similar to boxes but less private, often separated by wooden slats.

Unlike professional facilities, these last two types usually don’t meet the same quality standards as self-storage boxes.

How to find a secure, high-quality self-storage box in Austria

Self-storage boxes offer the highest quality standard among storage types. To find a safe option, it’s crucial to choose a reliable provider.

storabble recommends selecting providers certified by storabble or members of the national self-storage association.

On the platform, listings marked “Self Storage Boxen geprüft” indicate verified providers who have received a storabble certificate. Membership in the national association also requires meeting strict quality standards.

Continued growth: the next expansion is already planned

storabble’s founders are unstoppable. The next European expansion is already underway, and there’s no sign of slowing down. They reveal that before the end of the year, another major European country will join storabble’s growing network.
