Room for a whole house — or a business

A 20ft container holds a surprising amount: the contents of a typical three-bedroom home, a van-load of stock, or a term’s worth of student belongings. It’s your own private, lockable unit — never a shared room.

At home

Moving & decluttering

Between houses, renovating, or just short on space — keep furniture and boxes safe until you need them back. Ideal while a sale goes through.

For business

Stock & equipment

Tools, stock, archives and e-commerce inventory in your own container. Come and go as often as your orders demand — there’s no limit on visits.

For students

Over the holidays

Somewhere local to leave your things over summer instead of hauling them home and back. Store for a few weeks or the whole break.

The units

Dry, ventilated 20ft containers

Every unit is a full 20ft shipping container — weatherproof, ventilated and damp-proofed, standing on hardstanding so the yard works in any weather.

  • 146 sq ft of floor space — 6.06m × 2.44m × 2.59m high.
  • Dry, weatherproof, ventilated and damp-proofed — so your belongings aren’t sitting in condensation.
  • Drive-up loading on hardstanding — bring a van or a lorry right to the doors, no height restriction at the gate.
  • Your own padlock — you’re the only key-holder.
  • External lighting across the yard. Note: there’s no power inside the containers.

Security

A gated, camera-monitored site

The question everyone asks first. The yard is fully fenced with an electric gate you open by fob, and the site is covered by CCTV that’s recorded and monitored around the clock.

Bea Biechowiak

Easy and secure. The containers are dry inside, whatever the weather. I was wondering about that, as I have my craft items there, but after almost a year – no problems. Extremely decent price for the space you get. Easy access 24 hours (you get your own entry fob). Cameras, and great communication with staff (should you need it). Highly recommended.

Common questions

Good to know

How much does a container cost?
Get in touch for a straight price — one clear monthly figure with no hidden extras. There’s a deposit and a small refundable fob deposit, and we’ll set both out plainly before you commit.
Can I get to my container any time?
Yes. Once you’re set up you have 24/7 access via your gate fob — no booking and no waiting for opening hours. New customers arrange a time with us first to view the site and complete the paperwork.
Is the site secure?
The yard is fully fenced with an electric gate opened by fob, and CCTV is recorded and monitored 24 hours a day. The site is lit at night, and you fit your own padlock, so you’re the only key-holder.
Are the containers dry?
Yes — the units are weatherproof, ventilated and damp-proofed, and they sit on hardstanding. That combination is what stops the condensation problems people worry about with container storage.
What’s the minimum rental, and how much notice do I give?
The minimum is one month, and you give 14 days’ notice when you want to leave. Payment is by bank transfer, standing order or cash.
What can’t I store?
The usual exclusions: food or perishables unless properly sealed, living creatures, anything flammable or combustible (gas, petrol, paint, solvents), firearms or explosives, chemicals and hazardous or radioactive material, anything giving off fumes or odours, illegal goods, environmentally harmful items, and currency, deeds or irreplaceable one-off valuables. If you’re not sure about something, just ask.
Do I need insurance?
Customers arrange their own contents insurance for what they store. We’re fully insured for public liability on the site itself.
Can I run a business from my unit?
Yes. Business customers are welcome to come and go as often as they need — including running an online shop from their container.
How quickly can I move in?
Often the same day. Call or email us, we’ll arrange a time to show you round and do the paperwork, and you can move in once that’s done.
Do you do removals too?
We do — with our own team, covering the same areas as our storage. We can also supply packing materials and arrange collection or delivery.
