Flexible student storage at our safe and secure units

Stacks of textbooks and study materials. Walls pinned with photos, trinkets and reminders of home. Sports equipment bought on a whim to counteract your baked beans diet. We were once undergrads ourselves, so understand how quickly your uni room can fill up with stuff and the hassle of hauling all these belongings home only to haul them back again when term begins.

Fortunately, our student storage service provides a secure space to stow your possessions while you're away. All you need to do is place your order, pack your items using the materials we provide and call us when you're ready for us to collect the storage boxes. Then, when you return, we'll deliver your goods anywhere within 50km of the collection address at no extra cost. Alternatively, we can transport them safely to any other destination in the country for an additional charge or worldwide using our international student shipping service.

We even remove the stress of sourcing suitable packing materials by providing everything you need to securely pack your goods for transportation and storage, including bubble wrap, parcel tape and our ultra-durable, double-walled cardboard storage boxes. Plus, our process is entirely flexible, meaning at any time you can:

• Use our international shipping service to send your belongings back to your home country.
• Arrange for your goods to be transported to an alternative university or location in the UK.
• Extend your student storage period past the max. 26 weeks and switch to a pre-paid plan.

And all of this is from only 19p per day — it's no surprise Seven Seas Worldwide is one of the most popular student storage companies in the country!

Meaningful gap year ideas to inspire you:

Gap years are about more than simply sunning yourself on exotic beaches and frequenting the local bars, although that's certainly a bonus! They can teach you about different ways of life, help you break out of your comfort zone, introduce you to new friends and give your resume a boost with all the skills you've learnt along the way. Unsure of how to best use your year off? Here are a few ideas for inspiration:

• Take a part-time course: take the opportunity to add another string to your bow. Whether you want to learn a language, try a new sport, or develop a practical skill like coding, mechanics, carpentry, or cookery, additional qualifications are guaranteed to impress potential employers.
• Volunteer for a worthy cause: want to save the world? Fantastic! From planting trees to teaching children, digging wells to looking after wildlife, charities always need people to get involved with their good work.
• Work on a farm or in a household: if you don't mind getting your hands dirty, consider signing up for agricultural work in countries like New Zealand and Australia. Or lend a hand with childcare and chores as a nanny. You'll not only gain work experience, but you'll often also get free accommodation. 
• Apply for an internship or apprenticeship: test out a potential career path by using your year away from academia to find work in a particular field like business, journalism or marketing. Although you might not earn big bucks, you'll make contacts and improve your chances for future employment.
• Go on a thrill-seeking adventure: backpack across Southeast Asia, Interrail through Europe or buy an around the world plane ticket — the options are endless! Alternatively, join a trekking expedition or take part in an adrenaline challenge to test your endurance and teamwork abilities.
