Households in Craigmillar are getting smaller and driveways are getting narrower. The knock-on effect across City of Edinburgh is a steady rise in demand for a proper piece of storage — one you can lock, walk away from, and access whenever you need to. That's exactly what a GaraSpace garage does.

Transport in and out of Craigmillar is dominated by rail, and rail-heavy commuter towns across City of Edinburgh tend to have one thing in common: not enough off-street parking. That pressure pushes demand for private garage storage steadily upwards year on year.

Housing density around Craigmillar has climbed steadily. Small drives, permit schemes and shared parking courts all push demand for a private, secure garage.

Garage storage in Craigmillar — FAQ

How much does it cost to rent a garage in Craigmillar?

Prices in Craigmillar vary by size, security and access, but most managed garages let for between £20 and £60 per week. Larger workshops and city-centre bays are typically at the higher end. Every listing on GaraSpace shows the current weekly rent up front.

What sort of contract do you use?

A short, plain-English licence agreement drafted specifically for garage rentals. It's not a residential tenancy — it's simpler, shorter, and gives both sides clear rights and notice periods. You'll receive it by email to sign digitally before you move in.

Can I use a rented garage in Craigmillar as a workshop?

Some — but not all. Workshop-suitable garages in Craigmillar are clearly marked with a "Workshop use" feature. Where power, lighting and ventilation are present, we'll flag it. If you're unsure whether a specific unit is suitable, call us and we'll check with the owner.

Do you have larger units or workshop garages in Craigmillar?

We regularly manage larger units — from single-length lock-ups to double garages and workshop spaces. If nothing on the page is quite the right size, call us and we'll check what's coming up in the Craigmillar area.

Is there a deposit to pay?

Yes — a modest deposit (typically four weeks' rent) is held on every managed garage in Craigmillar, protecting the owner against damage. It's returned in full at the end of the tenancy when the garage is handed back in the same condition.

How quickly can I move in?

Usually within 3–7 days of your viewing. Once you're happy with the garage, we prepare the paperwork, take the first week's rent and deposit, and hand over the keys.
