SpaceMate is an online platform that connects individuals looking for storage space with hosts who have available space to rent.
Anyone over the age of 18 can use SpaceMate as a Host or Renter, subject to compliance with our Terms of Service.
Hosts list their available space on the platform, and Renters browse listings to find suitable storage options. Renters then book the space through SpaceMate's platform.
Hosts can list various types of spaces, including garage space, spare rooms, sheds, or any other suitable storage area.
Payments are processed securely through SpaceMate's platform. Renters pay for the space they book, and Hosts receive payouts through the platform.
Hosts are responsible for providing accurate listings, maintaining the space, and ensuring the safety of stored items. Renters must adhere to the Host's rules, keep the space clean, and pay for bookings promptly.
Hosts are responsible for damages caused by them to the Renter’s Stored Items. To avoid disputes, Hosts are encouraged to record the initial state of the Stored Items.
Yes, certain items are prohibited, including explosives, hazardous materials, firearms, and illegal substances. Renters must comply with these restrictions to use the space.
