What Fits in Your 10ft x 8ft Container?

At Yolk Storage, we understand that visualising storage space can be challenging. Our 10ft x 8ft containers offer 80 square feet of floor space with a generous 7’10” height, creating a versatile storage solution perfect for various needs.

• Contents of a typical 1-bedroom flat
• Couples or individuals with more possessions

Boxing Clever

Efficiently packed, your 10ft x 8ft unit can hold approximately 60-70 medium-sized boxes when utilising the full height of the container. This calculation accounts for proper stacking and necessary access paths.

Additional Items

Electronics
Television (up to 55″), gaming consoles, desktop computer, small appliances

Soft Furnishings
Bedding, cushions, curtains, rugs, additional linens (in vacuum bags where possible)

Miscellaneous
Several suitcases, lamps, pictures, mirrors, small kitchen appliances, books, hobby equipment

Space-Saving Tips

• Disassemble furniture where possible to maximise available space
• Use the increased depth to create distinct “zones” for different room contents
• Stack boxes safely to utilise vertical space (heaviest at bottom)
• Use vacuum storage bags for clothing and linens
• Consider drawer units as additional box storage
• Create a narrow access corridor to reach items at the back

Visualise Your Space

Think of your 10ft x 8ft container as a standard-sized bedroom. The floor space matches a typical bedroom in a UK home, providing ample storage for a complete 1-bedroom flat.
