Can I lock in my storage price? Prepayment explained

How prepaying your BEAM Space storage lets you lock in today's rate for up to 2 years, how it works with or without a promotion, and the key things to know before you prepay.

Quick answer

Yes. By prepaying your storage, you can lock in today's monthly rate for up to 2 years (24 months) — even if our standard prices go up later. This is available whether or not a promotion is running, and if there is a promotion, you can enjoy the discount on top of your locked-in rate.

No long contracts — just optional price certainty

BEAM Space never ties you into a long-term contract. By default there's no deposit and no minimum period: you're billed monthly and you can stop storing whenever you like.

Prepaying is simply an option for customers who want price certainty. It locks in your price, not you — think of it as protecting your rate against future increases while keeping the flexibility BEAM is known for.

How the price lock works

  • Choose how far ahead you'd like to prepay — from a few months up to 24 months.

  • Your monthly rate is fixed for that entire period. If our standard prices rise during that time, yours won't.

It works with or without a promotion:

  • No promotion running? You still lock in today's rate for the period you prepay.

  • Promotion available? You get the promotional discount as well — for example extra free months, or a discount on your pickup / moving fee — on top of your locked-in price.

Why customers choose to prepay

  • Protection from price increases. Our published prices can change over time; a prepaid rate stays the same for your whole locked-in period.

  • Better value with promotions. Many of our best offers (such as "prepay 6 months, get 2 free," or a discount on your moving fee) are unlocked by prepaying. Promotions usually apply to storage of 3 months or more.

  • Simple, one-time payment. Settle it once and you won't need to think about monthly card charges during the prepaid period.

  • Great for longer stays. Ideal if you're moving overseas, renovating, studying abroad, or storing business inventory and want a predictable cost.

Everything else stays the same

Prepaying doesn't change what you get. You still enjoy included insurance, an itemised digital inventory with a photo of every item, and door-to-door pickup and delivery — all managed in the BEAM Space app.

Good to know before you prepay

  • Prepaid months are non-refundable. If you move out before the end of a prepaid period, we aren't able to refund the unused months — so choose a duration you're comfortable with.

  • You can upgrade anytime. Need more space during your prepaid period? You're welcome to move up to a larger plan whenever you like.

  • Downgrades aren't available during a prepaid period. You can't switch to a smaller or lower-priced plan until the prepaid period ends.
