Frequently Asked Questions

To provide you with more handy information, we have collated a list of the most frequently Asked Questions with answers.

Are the units watertight?

Yes, our storage container units will withstand all types of adverse weather. However, if you plan to store paperwork or perishable good they would be best kept in sealed boxes/tubs/bags (We have a selection of high quality MOD grade boxes for rental – Find out more here)

Can I put shelving in my unit?

Yes, but only if it is freestanding. Attaching anything to the walls or floors could damage the unit and therefore prohibited. Another option is to use our specially design shelving units – find out more here

Can the units be accessed outside of the normal opening hours?

With advanced warning we can often provide ad-hoc access out of hours. Contact us to make the arrangements.

I have quite large bulky items, how easy is it to get them in the unit?

Unlike other providers with units inside buildings, you can drive right up to our units and load/unload directly from your vehicle

Is there internal lighting in the storage units?

No but many of our clients put a simple battery operated push style light in theirs

I only need short term storage, is that possible?

Yes, we offer contract free short term rentals – Simply call us to arrange a price and start time

How easy is it to access the units?

The storage containers are secured with locking bars. To open your unit simply slide and lift two levers and the doors will fully open. Although robust in build quality, one person can easily open and close them safely
