About us
Established in the heart of NUS in Winter 2022, StoreIT was born out of a simple yet pressing challenge: the hassle of student storage. As students living on campus, we faced the same struggle—packing up, hauling our belongings home, only to bring them all back again the next semester.
Recognizing this hassle, we designed a seamless, cost-effective storage solution tailored for students. StoreIT was born to connect those with extra space to students in need of storage, making it a win-win solution. Students save on moving costs while hosts turn unused spaces into valuable assets.
By choosing StoreIT, customers enjoy cost savings and localized, secure storage, while hosts turn unused spaces into lucrative assets. Since our launch, we have helped hundreds of students simplify their storage experience—no more hassle, no more stress.
Our Mission
At StoreIT, we aim to revolutionize storage by making it more accessible, affordable, and community-driven. Born from our own struggles with limited space on campus, we built a peer-to-peer platform that connects those with extra space to those who need it.
By leveraging underutilized spaces within communities, we provide a seamless, cost-effective alternative to traditional storage. What started as a campus solution is now expanding beyond schools to tackle Singapore’s growing storage challenges, helping individuals and families store smarter, declutter with ease, and embrace a more sustainable way of living.
What is Peer-to-Peer Storage?
Peer-to-peer storage allows individuals to rent out unused space in their homes to others who need affordable, nearby storage. Unlike traditional storage facilities, StoreIT connects you with verified hosts in your community, offering a cost-effective and convenient alternative.
