Mini Storage DaLock
Hello, this is Mini Storage DaLock.
The 'Short-Term Storage' service at Mini Storage DaLock is now newly available!
Now, without a monthly subscription, you can pay only for the exact days you need—from 1 to 15 days—and use our storage units. Rates start from 2,500 KRW per day for the smallest mini size unit, and vary depending on the unit size.
When thinking of self-storage, people usually imagine storing items for several months. Surprisingly, however, this was the question we heard most often from our customers:
"I only need to store things for a few days—do I still have to pay for a whole month?"
The moments you need to store belongings can sometimes be long-term, but most often, they come up suddenly and for short periods. That's why DaLock has evolved to fit the most fundamental need of 'storing items'! Whether you store for a long time or just for a single day, simply use it for as long as you need.
Try storing for just a day or a week in situations like these!

Store construction or remodeling periods
Temporarily move tables, chairs, fixtures, and interior props during the 1–2 weeks of interior construction.
When store relocation or move-in dates don't align
No worries even if there is a gap between moving out of your current space and entering the new one. Just store your belongings for that period.
When seasonal inventory arrives all at once
Temporarily store inventory outside your store during short-term surges, such as holiday gift sets or year-end seasonal merchandise.
Before and after pop-up stores, flea markets, or events
Store event equipment, merchandise, and promotional materials only for the duration of the event.
Before and after traveling or business trips
Store valuables you feel uneasy leaving at home during long trips, or temporarily keep items you will use during business trips.
When traveling to another area
If there's a DaLock branch near your travel destination, drop off your heavy bags for a while and travel light! Existing DaLock users can also instantly access branches in other regions using the same app.
When temporarily storing camping, golf, or fishing gear
If it has been a hassle keeping bulky equipment in your car before and after weekend trips, leave it stored for just a few days.
When hosting guests or holding events at home
When you temporarily need extra space for family gatherings or housewarming parties, moving your belongings aside will make your home feel much more spacious.
During secondhand sales or sorting through bulk deliveries
You can also use it when you temporarily need space to keep items you're selling or piles of delivery boxes you received at once.
During school vacations, leaves of absence, or temporary visits back home
You can store just your belongings during periods when you temporarily vacate or clean up your studio apartment.
How to Use
1. Select 'Short-Term' in the DaLock app (Only branches available for short-term use will be displayed on the map)

2. Choose your desired branch and unit size

3. Set your usage period from 1 to 15 days, make the payment, and start using it right away on the same day

4. If you need more time, select dates in the app to extend your stay

Rates and Security Deposit

Rates vary depending on the unit size, ranging from 2,500 KRW per day (Mini) to 28,000 KRW per day (Large). After selecting a size that fits your volume of items, please check the exact amount in the app before payment.
A security deposit of 30,000 KRW is charged alongside the usage fee and is automatically refunded once your use ends.
You will receive in-app notifications 3 days before and on the day your period ends, guiding you on item retrieval or extension options.
Short-term use vs. Monthly subscription: Which is better?

If you are storing items for 15 days or less, short-term use is ideal; if you plan to use it for more than 15 days, a monthly subscription is more economical. You can compare the two rates in the app and make the right choice for your situation.
Where is it available?
The service is first available at over 170 DaLock branches equipped with IoT smart door locks out of more than 250 branches nationwide.
Because it is operated unattended, there is no need to wait for staff—you can enter and manage your usage period directly via the app. It is also extremely convenient for business owners who need to move inventory late at night after closing shop.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q. Can I use it right away after payment?
A. Yes, you can use it immediately on the day of payment.
Q. Can existing monthly subscription users also use short-term storage separately?
A. Yes, simply select a branch available for short-term storage within the same DaLock app and proceed with payment. It is very convenient for temporary use near travel or business trip destinations.
Q. What if I need it for longer than 15 days?
A. You can extend the duration by selecting dates in the app. If you plan to use it for an extended period, we recommend comparing it with the monthly subscription.
Q. Is it available at all branches?
A. It is initially available at over 170 branches equipped with smart door locks. Selecting 'Short-Term' in the app will display only the available branches.
Reasons for storing items and the needed duration are different for everyone. Now at DaLock, needing storage for just a single day is completely fine!
