What Is Self Storage?

Self storage is the storage by individuals and companies of goods in their own self contained, secure room.

You can rent your own lockable secure room of practically any size for as long or short a period as you require. You are the only person to hold the key and you can come and go as often as you like during the facility’s opening hours.

NB: Do not mistake outside container storage for self storage.

How much does it cost?

We have a whole range of different sized units available from a small 5sqft room (2.5ft by 2ft) to the size of a triple garage. We also have warehouse space up to 2,000 sq ft.
