Self-storage and the Gen Z boom
We look at who is storing what, and ask why there's been such an increase in people using storage units?
Ever needed to put your stuff in a storage unit?
Recent research predicts the global self-storage market will be worth around $70bn by 2031 and the UK鈥檚 self-storage industry made more than 拢1bn last year for the first time ever.
But what鈥檚 behind this rapid growth? What are people putting into these units? And what does it have to do with Gen Z and internet shoppers?
We also hear from critics on what the growing industry says about housing around the world.
Presented and produced by Sam Gruet
