There are many reasons why people need a self storage unit in the UK: moving to a new place, building an extension, renovating, relocating to a new area, downsizing, relationship breakdown – these are just some of the reasons. It can be difficult to know how long you will need to store your possessions because these sorts of events are unpredictable. It’s well known that moving home can be an unnecessarily long process here in the UK; and improvement or renovation projects almost always take longer than expected.
Only you know what your exact plans are but a self storage expert is always happy to advise new customers on factors like: how much does the cheapest self storage cost, do you need you own padlock and is a security deposit required? What are the most popular storage unit sizes and do you have loading bays? How does the free collection service work? What you can and can’t store in our storage units, and your own insurance cover policy requirements that are highly recommended.

Companies often need secure, low cost business storage units in London and surrounding regions as they expand but are not yet ready to take on larger premises. For instance, you may be required by law to store certain paper documents for several years and need the extra room and storage space for archive containers. A seasonal business may need to store out-of-season stock off-site in a secure self-storage facility to make space for current season stock. We provide a London self storage service, and free collection and delivery.
Small companies or start-ups also choose our self-storage units because they are convenient and cost-effective. They provide security but also flexibility in contract length and storage unit size – and it’s easy to increase or decrease storage unit size with fluctuating business demands.

A trustworthy storage provider offers secure storage units at high quality self storage facilities at a great price. All with great customer service and convenience – but you probably knew that already. However, there are some aspects of renting space you probably don’t know about so here are 10 interesting facts about self storage:
Self storage units come in a wide variety of different settings. Some are huge buildings with lockable units inside with a lock and key. Some are like parking lots with rows of garages. There are also some self storage facilities with outdoor shipping units that you can store in.
You may envisage a room sized unit when you think about an inexpensive self storage unit, but they come in a variety of different sizes. You can actually get low-cost storage units as little as a gym locker and as big as a football field, plus everything in between with a corresponding range of self storage prices. Typical storage unit sizes include 10 sq ft (the size of an average estate care), 35 sq ft (the size of a garden shed), 50 sq ft, 70 sq ft, 100 sq ft, 140 sq ft (the size of a large garage).
Some people don’t realise that temperature control is a common aspect of good storage units. These facilities enable you to keep your unit at a temperature you feel is best for the contents. For example; wine storage might be better cooler.
You may have driven past huge storage providers at major London junctions, but there are many more storage businesses in other locations. There is almost always low-cost storage closer than you realise.
You can store most things in low-cost self storage units, but not everything. The restrictions are actually quite straightforward and the rules are not dependent on storage location, type of storage unit or facilities. Organic materials like food and plants can never be stored in a storage unit. Explosives like fireworks are also not allowed, nor any flammable materials or chemicals, including paint. It is always a good idea to check with the facility.
Although many great self storage places are owned by large corporations with sites at prominent London locations, plenty are not. The differences are important as there are factors to consider before making a decision and there are benefits to both types of secure storage units.
You may be interested to know that some self storage companies will actually take deliveries for you day or night – storing items until required. This can be very handy when it comes to keeping operations running well.
Many self storage places offer help when moving to a new home just like a removals company – making the process more stress free. This can be as minimal as selling great packing materials or as much as offering complete packing of your belongings and furniture moving services just like a removal company. This can be so handy if you are moving and want to utilise both moving services and store some stuff in a self storage unit to keep your belongings safe.
Self storage contracts are extremely flexible at most facilities, and can be easily adapted depending on your needs and what you want to store in a secure storage unit. This is handy for growing businesses, student storage units during university holidays or for customers who like to pick and choose how they use self storage; or simply want to store more stuff.
If you do need less space one month because things are slow, you’ve moved stuff from your student storage to a new rented students house, or you’re actually renovating and need more space to store large furniture, that isn’t a problem. It is very easy to increase or decrease your local storage space month on month by upsizing to larger units or alternatively downsizing to smaller storage units, so you only ever pay for the space and the unit type you need. Self storage facilities are a handy service where your belongings are safe in a storage unit. Most storage providers say insurance cover is highly recommended depending on replacement value but remember the cheapest quote is not always the best. Another alternative is to extend your home cover or commercial insurance policy.

Here’s how to utilise cheap self storage to help you work from home more comfortably both short-term and long-term.
Working from home is the dream for many, and is becoming much more of a reality as technology allows workers to base themselves at home. Being an entrepreneur or start-up, is likely to begin as a working from home position.
If you are going to be working from home soon, or you plan to work from home, you could probably use some handy advice on helping this process get going. After all, the dream of working from home is often not the reality. You do need to put a bit of work in to get it to work well.
We can’t solve every problem you’re sure to encounter during this transition. What we can do is give you a tipoff about a really handy service you can use when you are working from home, and that is self storage. Cheap self storage has a ton of benefits for anybody who works from home, here’s how:
With cheap self storage you can easily place everything from your summerhouse, spare room or garage to create space for your new office. Once you have self storage setup, you can take any space in your home from domestic to professional, in as little as an afternoon.
Stock can take up a lot of space in the home, which can be a real problem for family life. If your new working from home endeavour is causing you to have a lot of stock in your house, self storage is a really great idea. With the lighting, security, reception and temperature control, self storage is likely a safer place for your stock anyway.
It can be hard to stay organised at home, because all of your business things are amongst everything else. This can be detrimental to a good working life. Having somewhere separate for your work things can be really useful. A space like self storage where you can visit, get files or information, and switch it with completed work, is handy.
Pets and children can accidentally damage and move work items. This can be as small as replacing some paperwork, or as huge as losing a client. Cheap self storage protects your most precious work items from accidental damage by your family.
Working from home is great, but sometimes it’s nice just to have a bit of space from the family, or being in the same space everyday. Self storage gives you your own private four walls to spend a little bit of time pottering around.
You can use cheap self storage to buy things in bulk when they cost less, giving your business a bit more money to play with in other areas.
Cheap self storage helps you work from home because it gives you room to grow. It enables you to utilise cheap storage space without committing to warehouse space or office space. You can instead work from home or at cheap hot desking units whilst keeping your stock and other items in an affordable, flexible space.
Working from home can be amazing, but you do need to make it work for your individual needs. Using self storage, and other affordable services, you can create the space you need to nurture your next business venture.
Here’s how to store your belongings safely whilst you’re in the process of moving abroad.
Moving abroad is something many Brits opt to do often for sunnier weather, gorgeous beaches and a change in overall pace of life. This is even more prevalent at the moment with uncertain political times. If you’re in the process of moving abroad, there’s no doubt you’ve already realised that the logistics can be the most stressful part of the process. What to do with your things whilst you go through the process of researching and planning a move abroad is a bit tricky, because the process has so many ‘moving parts’. Did you know tat you can pay for a flexible space that is secure and easy to access throughout your moving process? Cheap self storage is a really good service to utilise when you’re moving abroad, here’s how:
Lots of people do a trial move to their chosen country before they move properly. This may involve renting property out for six months, or even giving up a rental altogether and moving temporarily. Either way, you will want to store your things safely during that time and self storage can accommodate those needs. The length of time and the size of unit you opt for is up to you, so you have plenty of flexibility, leaving you free to focus on making your new location work.
It may be that you have certain items you don’t want to leave in the house whilst you spent a few weeks at a time abroad arranging the move. Having a facility with CCTV, locks, lighting, reception and security guards provides you with the peace of mind your things will be stored safely each and every time you lock them up and take a trip to your new country.
Logistics can be so challenging when you move abroad. What goes where, when? You have to organise key collections, drop offs, contracts, pets, children, and of course, your belongings. Having a middle-ground that not only you can access, but family can access or even an international moving company, is really useful.
If you have to empty your UK house for sale, or you’re sorting items out to sell but want them out of your house so you can focus on redecorating, cheap self storage is really useful. Items can be moved into and out of the space at your leisure, giving you the time to get the right price for high ticket items you need out of the house to clear space.
Moving abroad is really exciting, but the logistics can be extremely challenging. Cheap self storage can help you have an easier time managing where everything goes, without any pressure from estate agents or other issues that are commonly associated with property. With the help of a cheap self storage unit you’ll have more head space to focus on making this incredible move work for your family.
