About our container storage units
Located in Fengate, our containers are available in two sizes: 10ft or 20ft. Both are available with three levels of access: standard (allowing you to access your items during our normal opening hours), extended and 24-hour. These options mean you’ll only be paying for the level of access you need, keeping costs down.
We can provide insurance cover up to the value of £25,000 – and only you will have access to your container. All of our containers are secured using padlocks, which are available to purchase from us if you don’t have one of your own.
Container storage is not only affordable, it’s extremely convenient: you’ll be able to drive right up to your container in your car or van, making the loading and unloading process a whole lot easier.

How is container storage different from self-storage?
Self-storage is an indoor storage unit designed to temporarily store your commercial or personal belongings. Unlike self-storage, containers can be accessed from outside. This type of storage is best suited to those who require a large unit on a long-term basis, particularly if you don’t need to access the items often.
How often will I be able to access my container?
As often as you like – we have 24-hour security on-site, so you’ll be able to come and go as you please no matter the hour.
