Self Storage in Antalya: Frequently Asked Questions

Because our storage breathes. Your belongings are not kept in a closed, airless room but in a private, lockable unit enclosed by a steel cage. Thanks to the cage structure, air circulates freely inside the warehouse, so moisture does not build up the way it does in closed rooms, and mould, damp and bad odours do not form. In a humid city like Antalya, keeping the air moving is the most effective way to protect belongings. On top of this, our warehouses are designed against moisture: moisture barriers and anti-damp paint on the floors and insulated walls, and humidity and temperature are monitored with digital meters in every corridor and outside the building. Damp is the topic we are most careful about: so far, even white goods stored with us for 3–4 years have not developed mould. Kafes Depo is the storage brand of Antalyalı Nakliyat, a moving company serving Antalya since 2008, so moving and storage are handled by the same team under one contract.

A warehouse does not literally breathe; "breathing storage" means storage where air circulates continuously, so moisture does not collect in one place. In closed, airless rooms, moisture condenses, especially in summer, which can cause swelling furniture, mouldy textiles, rusty metal and bad smells. The cage structure and ventilation greatly reduce this risk.

In closed rooms or containers each unit is surrounded by four walls, which can trap air and moisture inside. In a cage unit your space is still private and locked, but air keeps moving through it. You get the same privacy and security in a healthier environment for your belongings.

The cage structure is chosen for air circulation. Only authorised staff and customers with an appointment can enter the storage areas, and the warehouses are monitored 24/7 by cameras. Belongings are usually packed and wrapped, so their contents are not visible.

Our facilities are cleaned regularly. Because belongings are stored packed and covered, they do not get dusty. We recommend packing furniture with suitable protective materials; if you book transport with us, packing of large items is included in the moving price.

We have two warehouses: our main warehouse in Muratpaşa (Yenigöl, close to the city centre and the airport) and our warehouse in Aksu (Altınova). Addresses and directions are at the bottom of this page.

The minimum rental period is one month and there is no upper limit. You can rent for as long as you need and extend later. There is no long-term commitment.

No, we do not take a deposit.

The price depends on the volume of your belongings (m³) and the rental period. It stays fixed for the agreed period, and there are no hidden costs. Pick-up and transport, if you need them, are priced separately from storage.

Send us a list or a few photos of your belongings on WhatsApp and we will reply with a clear price offer as soon as possible. A free on-site survey at your address is also possible.

You can pay monthly, every 3 months or yearly. Longer rentals and advance payment come with a discount; we will share the current terms with you. Prices are in Turkish lira, and payment can be made by bank transfer from an account in Turkey or in cash.

With monthly payment, rent is charged per month and there is no refund for the remaining days of the month. With yearly prepayment, if you leave before the end of the period, the months you used are recalculated at the regular (non-discounted) monthly price and the rest is refunded.

Please let us know at least 15 days before you move out and collect your belongings. If you would like us to deliver them to your address, we will plan the transport date within this time.

We remind you before your period ends. You can extend it or collect your belongings; if you want them delivered to your address, the transport is priced separately.

Our warehouses are protected by 24/7 cameras, alarm, motion sensors and smoke/fire alarms, and fire extinguishers are on site. Our staff are present during the day, and at night a caretaker stays at the warehouse. Only authorised staff and customers with an appointment can enter the storage areas.

Many of our units have a door sensor: every time your unit door is opened you get an instant notification and can see a daily log of who entered and when. Not every unit has one, so if you want this feature, please mention it when asking for a price.

Yes, belongings stored at Kafes Depo are insured. We explain the details openly when we sign the contract.

No. Your belongings are kept only in your own locked cage unit and are never mixed with other customers' items. You are present at drop-off and know from the start which warehouse and which unit is yours.

Yes. Transport is done by our own team at Antalyalı Nakliyat, serving since 2008, with our own vehicles. We pick up from all districts of Antalya and from other cities. Transport is optional and priced separately from storage; you can also bring your belongings yourself. If your belongings go into storage, moving and storage are covered by a single contract.

If you book transport with us, packing of large items (sofas, wardrobes, beds, white goods, TVs), dismantling and reassembling furniture, and packing materials are included. Packing small items into boxes (kitchenware, clothes, books, fragile items) needs extra staff and boxes, so it is charged separately. Removing or installing air conditioners, hanging curtains and wall mounting are not part of our services.

Of course. If you box your small items yourself, there is no boxing charge. Put heavy boxes at the bottom and light ones on top, label each box with its contents and room, and wrap fragile items separately.

We sign a contract with our customers. Damage caused by our team during transport and loading is covered under the contract by repair, replacement or payment of its value. We also take out cargo insurance for our moves, which covers situations such as traffic accidents.
