Who uses self storage?

The list is endless but we can divide it into personal and business storage space use.

Personal Storage Space Use

• Ideal for those needing to store their possessions between selling their old home and buying a new one. Learning from painful experiences of housing chains in the past, it is becoming increasingly popular to sell your house first and then rent for a while, giving you time to find a new home. Our clients store their possessions with us while they do this, safe in the knowledge that they can access them every day except Saturday and Bank Holidays.
• Another increasing trend is to take time out and travel. We have several clients who store their possessions safely with us while they take a year off to discover new horizons.
• Builders in? Many people store their furniture with us during this stressful time. Those who don't often regret it.
• Lots of people keep furniture that might come in handy when the kids leave home. Pack it away with us in the mean time.
• Everyone needs a place to hoard and not everyone has a huge, clean, dry attic. Let our self store be your attic.
• Leisure, thankfully, plays an ever more important role in our lives and with it comes acres of sports equipment. Things such as surfboards are not needed for large parts of the year but take up a large amount of room. Many people now store their kit in self-storage units.

Business Storage Space Use

• Principally archive storage. Ever increasing bureaucracy requires us to document and record everything. More and more businesses and professional people need space to store old, seldom used files and as office space is so expensive it is more economical to use outside storage.
• Seasonal stock - self store provides cheap, secure storage for the off season.
• During refurbishment it can be very handy to store office furniture somewhere clean, dry and secure.
