Switzerland Self Storage Market Report and Forecast 2025-2034

The Switzerland self storage market size is projected to grow at a CAGR of 4.20% between 2025 and 2034. The major drivers of the market include the rapid expansion of the e-commerce sector, increased demand for self storage services by start-ups and small businesses, and rising urban movements.

Key Trends in the Market

Self storage, also known as self-service storage, refers to a type of service which offers a storage unit on rent. This type of service enables individuals or businesses to store their belongings in accordance with their convenience. These flexible and convenient services are available for both short- and long-term basis.

  • The utilisation of self storage by the e-commerce sector to store inventory, packaging materials, and seasonal items, among others is increasing rapidly. Thus, the e-commerce boom can be regarded as one of the crucial factors driving the Switzerland self storage market growth.  The expansion of the e-commerce sector can be attributed to the availability of wide range of products across online platforms and provision of convenience and comfort.
  • Rapid urban movement, along with increasing industrialisation, is another key trend in the market. As the urban settlements in the country increase, the development of newer facilities that are compact and have less storage space is anticipated to shoot up. This, in turn, is anticipated to create a new category of renters, thereby fuelling the Switzerland self storage market demand.
  • The rising automation across various sectors in Switzerland is expected to provide lucrative growth opportunities to the market, driving the adoption of automated self storage solutions. Fully automated self storage sites require minimal staff, making the operations more cost effective and efficient. This helps boost the convenience of both business owners and customers.
