Pickupbox Bv

What Pickupbox Bv does

Pickupbox Bv operates the PickupBox mobile storage service in the Netherlands under the legal entity ConQare BV (KvK 68554540), headquartered at Siliciumweg 69 in Amersfoort. The core product is a double-walled mobile storage container (7.4 m³ internal volume, 1.45 m wide, 800 kg capacity) delivered to the customer's doorstep, loaded by the customer, transported to a centrally located, secured, climate-controlled warehouse heated with residual heat, and returned on request. Ancillary offerings include moving boxes, moving blankets, hand trucks, and paid loading helpers. The service is sold direct-to-consumer via a quote-based website flow and phone sales, with monthly billing and a minimum one-month rental period; mid-term access is available for €35 per box per visit.

The customer base is primarily residential SMBs — individuals and families storing belongings during moves or renovations — supplemented by a growing B2B portfolio spanning housing associations, contractors, real estate agents, manufacturers, clearing companies, hospitality, and businesses downsizing office space. Marketed reference logos include Mollie, Mitros, Kadaster, and iDEAL, and the company is known from RTL4 media coverage. Distribution is exclusively single-country (Netherlands), with no intermediaries, marketplaces, or resellers.

The business model is a subscription-style monthly rental bundled with transport and insurance, augmented by ancillary hardware sales and ancillary fees (visits, cancellations, weekend loading). Marketing relies on Google AdWords search and remarketing, LinkedIn and Facebook remarketing, MailChimp newsletters, and a content-rich SEO website. No revenue, headcount, funding, or M&A data is publicly disclosed; the company is a privately held Dutch BV with no reported subsidiaries, leadership changes, or strategic transactions.

Direct peers

• Boxie24: Germany-based mobile portable storage company that delivers boxes to the customer's door, stores them, and redelivers on demand. Closely comparable to PickupBox in operating model, container-based service, and European market focus, making it the most directly comparable peer.

Broad incumbents

• Shurgard Self Storage: Pan-European self-storage leader with a dense network of fixed-location facilities, including significant presence in the Netherlands. Competes with PickupBox for the same end-customer storage wallet but uses a fixed-facility model rather than doorstep mobile containers.
• Big Yellow Group: UK-listed self-storage operator with a large network of branded facilities, primarily in the UK. Comparable as a self-storage incumbent serving similar residential and SME storage use cases, though geographically distinct from PickupBox's Dutch focus.
• Safestore Group: UK-headquartered self-storage operator with facilities across the UK and selected European markets. Overlaps with PickupBox on customer use cases (moving, renovation, decluttering) and subscription-based storage revenue model.
• Lok'nStore Group: UK-based self-storage company with both owned and franchised locations. Serves similar residential and small business storage customers as PickupBox, with comparable monthly subscription pricing model, though operating from fixed facilities.
• Extra Space Storage: Large US-headquartered self-storage REIT with a growing UK/European footprint. Competes in the same broader storage industry with a fixed-facility model and serves the same end-customer moving and life-transition storage needs.
• Public Storage: Largest US self-storage operator with thousands of facilities. While primarily US-focused, it represents the global incumbent model against which mobile portable storage operators like PickupBox position on convenience and doorstep delivery.

Regional players

• CityBox Self Storage: Dutch self-storage chain operating multiple fixed-location facilities across the Netherlands. Directly competes with PickupBox for residential and SME storage demand within the same domestic geography but lacks the doorstep container delivery model.
