It has probably been a hundred times before, but considering the search didn't turn up much, I'll just ask.
I'm leaving for a few months and will be returning in the Fall. I will be unemployed during my venture out, so I want have an apartment in the meantime to store all my stuff. I've looked at Incheon airport, but theirs is ridiculous expensive.
I need a place for like 3 months. I absolutely can not pay $50 a day, that would be a bloody fortune before it was all said and done.
Also, moving trucks. How easily are those these rented (with driver?) |

I saw a place called Extra Storage hidden behind the Yangjae E-mart (near Costco) the other day. It looked like one of the indoor storage facilities they have back in the US. I didn't see any prices, but here's their website:

Depending on how much stuff you have, and how much you want to spend, I would recommend Allied Pickfords Korea.
I have a house full of furniture and belongings in storage (including furniture & appliances). For 600,000 they come to your house, pack it up, store it (mine is for 12 months) and then deliver it and unpack it.
If you only have a few basic belongings, maybe a goshiwon will be cheaper, but if you have more stuff, I'd recommend them. It cant hurt to ask for a quote. |

And that includes the one year storage rental? That's a pretty good deal. |

Yes, that was the price for the amount of stuff I had. I have quite a lot of stuff, but I am single, so it was still a lot less than their minimum storage space. You can also negotiate discounts if you are prepared to pack your things yourself, etc.
Like I said, if you have over a couple of suitcases of stuff, it's worth contacting them for a quote. |
