Rob Vivian

Managing Director / (aka The Top Dog)

Where it all started… After having the genius business idea to provide a top quality, low cost, online student storage service to UK students, Rob has been working with universities across the Midlands and London to grow the business over the past 5 years.

The success of our business has made it possible to help students on the scale we do today! With a background in the police, he has run several other successful businesses since retiring, and understands that customers expect a quality and cost effective service. Let’s just say he knows what he’s doing!

Anna Vivian

Business Development Manager

Who else would you want running the show more than someone who has been in your shoes (literally!)? 

After working in the hospitality and logistics trade here in the UK and abroad, Anna knows just how important trust between a customer and a business provider is, especially when they are looking after your possessions. With her experience and background  she is great at managing logistical issues and understands that plans may change so don’t worry, we can handle it!

If you have any queries as a student or sales enquiries, Anna is on hand to help you!

Charlie Hopewell

Operations Manager

After working closely with Rob over the past few years, Charlie has learnt the ins and outs of the operations. He’s an enthusiastic grafter that will always go the extra mile to help customers with their storage deliveries, collections and returns.

Our packing team is made up experienced workers and managed by Charlie who assisted in the packing of over 400 students at Loughborough University alone last year. I guess you could call him a Packing Expert too!

The Highlight is the Customer Service

Excellent service. Website is easy to use with all costs given upfront, and it includes packing material delivered to your address within just a few working days (including tape!). The highlight is their very prompt, friendly and helpful customer service - any queries I had were resolved quickly, and they were able to move up my collection date at request with just two days notice. Would use again and highly recommend.

Didn't show up, zero contact
Awful experience with this company.

I put a note against my order that collection needed to be before 11am, 11am came and went with no courier and zero contact, repeated phone calls from 10.15am onwards went straight to voicemail, email was also unanswered.

In the end I had to bin the belongings I planned to put in storage and rush for my train. A needlessly stressful experience.

We are very sorry that you had a less than satisfactory experience. We did apologise for the lack of contact on the day as there was a technical issue that we were trying to resolve, with our phones. We did contact you to say that we could not meet the 11am deadline and tried to make other arrangements for you to leave your box at reception. As per our T & C's we cannot commit to specific times due to the number of orders we have and the delays often incurred but we do keep our customers informed. We have offered a very generous discount should you wish to use our business again in the future. Again, please accept our apologies and wish you well.

Your one stop destination for Storage

Student Storage Experts (SSE) has been a firm companion of mine throughout my University years at Loughborough.

My first experience with them was during the height of the Covid-19 pandemic when I had to leave the UK and left the responsibility of my belongings in the hands of SSE. They successfully packed and stored my stuff throughout the lockdown and even delivered it right to my accommodation during the start of my second year at uni.

A positive experience during an uncertain time led to me using SSE's service for the next 2 years too.

Overall, SSE's service is economically viable, trustworthy, efficient, and very student friendly, catering to custom requests.

Very thankful to Rob and his team for the constant support over the past 3 years!

Extremely understanding and reliable. Recommend for any international students

These guys have been extremely helpful with the whole process of storage and shipping my stuff to my home country. From helping me remove specific stuff from my box through video calls to just generally being very understanding and patient. Even when my stuff got accidentally shipped back to the UK. They helped me straight away with the procedures to get it back home. Definitely recommended!

Exemplary Storage Experience

Student Storage Experts put me at ease every step of the way, from queries, collection, storage and delivery. As an architecture student I had a significant amount of course equipment and materials to store on top of typical belongings which worried me, however this was accommodated for.

Not only that they made it possible for delivery to arrive prior to my return arrival to halls. All of my items were delivered in full and returned to me in great condition, especially my course equipment.

I highly recommend their service and expertise.
