For years, we've been told there are only two options for your stuff: get rid of it, or pay a fortune for a soulless locker on the edge of town.

We thought that was a load of rubbish.

The Idea Born from a Common Irish Problem

Packhood was started in Dublin for a simple reason: we were sick of the clutter.

Like you, we've lived in apartments where the spare room became the "storage room." We've helped our parents clear out garages packed to the rafters with memories. We've seen friends trying to figure out where to put everything during a house move, a renovation, or after a loved one has passed.

The options were always the same. A skip, a charity shop, or a pricey commercial storage unit miles away.

We knew there had to be a better way. A local way. A more human way.

All around us, in every neighbourhood in Ireland, there are thousands of empty, under-utilised spaces. Garages sitting empty. Attics gathering dust. Spare rooms waiting for a purpose.

What if we could connect the people who have space with the people who need it? What if we could build a community where you could store your things safely just down the road, at a neighbour's place?

That's why we built Packhood.

Our Mission: Storage by Neighbours, for Neighbours.

Packhood is more than just a website; it's a community built on trust. Our mission is to make storage simple, affordable, and local.

For Renters

We offer a chance to find a secure spot for your belongings right in your own neighbourhood, for a fair price. No more long drives to industrial estates.

For Hosts

We offer a simple way to earn a bit of extra, hassle-free income from that space you're not using. It's found money, right under your own roof.

We handle the boring stuff—the secure payments, the identity checks, the booking management—so you can just sort the space. We're leveraging technology to create real-world connections, helping neighbours help each other.

Who's Behind the Curtain?

Packhood was founded by me, Vusal Aliyev. I moved to Ireland and, like many, saw a simple problem that needed a commonsense solution. I'm not some big corporation; I'm just a bloke who believes in the power of community and a good, simple idea. I'm building Packhood from the ground up, right here in Dublin, with a focus on getting it right for our first users in Ireland before we go anywhere else.

The Road Ahead

We're just getting started. Our vision is to create a more sustainable Ireland, where we make better use of the space we already have. We want to be the go-to platform for anyone who needs a bit of extra room, and for anyone who wants to earn a bit of extra income from the space they already own.

Thanks for being here at the start of our journey. Let's get this sorted, together.
