Honest comparison
Stashbee is a peer-to-peer marketplace: you rent space from a private individual and the platform sits in the middle. GaraSpace owns or directly manages every garage it advertises, so there is one company responsible for the door, the lock, the roof and the paperwork.
On a marketplace, the condition of the space is whatever the individual host says it is. Listings range from a genuinely good lock-up to a damp shed. GaraSpace inspects every unit before it is advertised and repairs or drops anything that doesn't meet standard.
If a door jams or a roof leaks on a marketplace let, you are dealing with a private landlord who may or may not answer. Our tenants call one number and our maintenance team is dispatched.
Marketplace supply follows whoever happens to list. Our portfolio is built deliberately across towns and counties, so coverage is consistent rather than accidental.

Prices are broadly comparable per square foot, but a GaraSpace garage is a whole private building with drive-up access rather than a share of someone's driveway or loft, and management is included in the rent.
