What people say
Half the price of the storage place down the street, and five minutes from my front door.
Our driveway pays the phone bill now. Setting up access hours took about two minutes.
SimplyVacant runs our garden suite while we travel. The licensing was sorted out for us.
Questions
Before you book
Is it safe to store my things at someone's home?
Every host is ID-verified, you can read reviews before you book, and optional protection plans cover your items while they are stored.
What fees will I pay?
The price shown is the total. It already includes our service fee and any sales tax for your province or state — no surprises at checkout.
Can I rent a room for just a few nights?
Yes. Rooms can be nightly, monthly or both, depending on the host. Nightly rooms display the local short-term rental registration where one is required.
Is SimplyVacant available where I live?
We operate across Canada and the United States. Supply grows city by city, so set an alert if nothing is close to you yet.
