Applying for a temporary storage
Soihtu also rents storages the sizes of which vary between 3,5 m2 and 12 m2. In the biggest storage there is enough space, roughly, for furniture and moving boxes of a studio apartment. The rent of the storage depends on the size of the storage unit (rents approximately 30-50€ per month). There is temporary storage available in Kortepohja Student Village and Soihtu Korttelikylä. You can apply for a temporary storage using the same application as when applying for an apartment. Applying for and offering a storage proceeds in the same way as with apartments.
