Services · Mobile app development · Self-storage apps
Codeeo provides self-storage booking app development in Jeddah for valet storage companies, unit based facilities and logistics firms with spare space in the city's warehouse districts. Customers book a pickup or a unit, list what they are storing with photos, pay by mada or Apple Pay and ask for items back from their phone. Drivers, warehouse staff and managers each get a view built for their part of the work.
In Jeddah, a lot of storage is sold as a collection service rather than a room you drive to. The app has to treat each box as a tracked item with a location, a condition and a return date, not just a unit number. Getting that record right is what keeps customers renewing.

What the app can include
A valet storage booking has more moving parts than a unit rental. Someone books a slot, a driver arrives with boxes, items are photographed and sealed, the load goes to a warehouse, and months later the customer wants one suitcase delivered by Thursday. Each hand off is where items get mislabelled or customers lose patience, so the app records every step against the item itself.
Jeddah adds its own conditions. Coastal humidity matters for furniture, documents and textiles, so customers want to know their things sit in a controlled space. Traffic along the corridor from the northern districts to the southern warehouse belt around Al Khumrah shapes how many collections a driver can complete, and the seasonal rhythm of a city that receives Umrah visitors year round and Hajj pilgrims each year affects which businesses need overflow space and when. The features below are the ones we build most often for operators here.
Customers choose a collection window, enter their address from the national address system, and say roughly how much they are storing. Slots are limited by the drivers and vans you have on that day, so the app never promises a visit your team cannot make. Customers in the northern districts and those near Al Balad see slots that reflect realistic travel times.
Collections planned around real driver capacity.
Every box or large item is photographed and labelled with a barcode at collection. The customer sees a visual list in the app, can add their own notes such as winter clothes or school books, and searches it later when they need something back. Photos stay attached for the whole tenancy.
Customers know exactly what is in storage without opening a single box.
Customers tap the items they want returned and pick a delivery window. The warehouse team gets a pick list, the driver gets the route, and the customer gets updates until the delivery is signed for. Partial returns are supported, so one box can come back while the rest stays stored.
Retrievals handled in the app instead of over long phone calls.
Drivers see the day's collections and returns in route order, scan each barcode on loading and unloading, capture the customer's signature and photograph any existing damage before the item leaves the home. Supervisors can follow progress live.
Disputes about condition settled by the photo record.
Where you offer climate-controlled zones, customers can choose them for furniture, documents or artwork at booking. Staff record condition checks against the item, which reassures customers storing valuable pieces through a humid Jeddah summer.
Higher value items placed in the right zone from the start.
Staff scan items into a bay, shelf or container position. When a retrieval request arrives, the pick list shows exactly where to go, and moves inside the warehouse are logged so nothing is lost when space is reorganised.
Faster picking and fewer missing items.
Hospitality suppliers, event companies and traders who work around the Hajj and Umrah seasons can book space for a set period, list pallets or equipment, and schedule a bulk return before their busy weeks begin. Space is released back to household customers automatically when the period ends.
Business customers return each season because the process is predictable.
Customers pay monthly by item volume or by unit, through mada, Apple Pay, STC Bank or card. Collection and return fees are added to the same account, and each invoice is issued in the format Saudi e-invoicing requires. Credit for unused months is calculated by the system rather than by hand.
One clear bill rather than separate charges for every trip.
In app chat linked to the customer's items and bookings, so support staff see the photos and history before they reply. Jeddah's mix of Saudi families and expatriate residents means both languages are needed from the first release. Messages can include photos from either side.
Support questions answered with the full record in view.
Before a collection, customers can order boxes, tape, wardrobe cartons and mattress covers in the app, delivered ahead of the pickup or brought by the driver. The order is added to the first invoice, and the driver's job sheet shows what to bring so nobody arrives without enough boxes.
Collections start on time because packing is already done.
Who this is for
Jeddah's storage market includes start-ups running collection services, warehouse owners near the port, and moving firms that store goods between homes. Their customers range from families leaving a flat for the summer to importers who need overflow space for a few weeks. We shape the first version around who fills your space, because a valet operation and a drive up facility need very different screens. Some operators fit more than one description, and the app can grow to cover each in turn without a rebuild.
You collect boxes from homes and store them centrally, but your item records live in a shared sheet and photos sit in drivers' phones. We build the catalogue, the driver app and the retrieval flow first, then migrate your existing customers and their items so nobody has to be collected again. Your team keeps working during the switch because old records stay readable throughout. Barcode labels can be printed from the dashboard for boxes already in the warehouse.
Item records are migrated before customers are invited.
Owners in the southern logistics districts sometimes have bays that sit empty between large contracts. An app lets smaller importers and online sellers book that space by the pallet or the bay, sign terms and pay without a long negotiation. You decide which areas are offered and for how long, and the dashboard shows what is earning.
Bays can be offered for short periods only.
You already rent units and want to reach customers who will never hire a van. We add a pickup option to the existing booking flow, give your drivers a simple app, and keep unit renters and valet customers in the same system so reporting covers both. Customers can also start with collection and move to a unit of their own later.
Both customer types share one dashboard.
Families arriving or leaving Jeddah often need goods held for weeks while housing or shipping is arranged. We combine the moving quote, packing, storage period and final delivery in a single booking, with the stored inventory visible to the family while they are abroad. Payments can be made by a sponsoring employer if that is how the move is funded. Shipping dates and customs paperwork can be noted against the booking for the crew to see.
Company paid moves need a separate approver role.
How we work together
For Jeddah clients, discovery, design reviews and sprint demos all run by video call, with shared boards and recordings so managers who miss a session can catch up. Most storage businesses start with a fixed scope first release and then move to a monthly retainer. Operators planning several warehouses, or a wider service across the Western Region, sometimes keep a dedicated team for longer. In every case the scope, the release order and the people involved are agreed with you in writing first.
A defined build with a deadline
We agree what the product has to do, write it down with a price and a date, and build exactly that. Changes are priced before they are made, not discovered on the invoice.
A product that keeps evolving
Named engineers who work your hours, join your standups and stay on the codebase. You direct the backlog; we own the quality of what ships.
Something live that needs looking after
A monthly block of hours for improvements, fixes and the small requests that otherwise wait months. Unused hours carry for a quarter.
Technology
We choose tools that suit barcode scanning on ordinary phones, offline use in warehouses with weak signal, and a backend your own staff or another team can maintain, hosted in a region agreed with you. Documentation and handover notes are part of every release.

It depends on whether you run collections, units or both.
A unit booking app with payments is the smaller build. A valet model needs a customer app, a driver app with scanning, a warehouse tool and routing, so it costs more. Other drivers are data migration, climate zone handling, business accounts and how many integrations you need. We price a first release that covers your core flow and leave the rest for later releases. We also look at whether you need route planning inside the app or whether drivers can work from an ordered list, since that choice changes the effort considerably.
