Moving house

Juggling brokers, solicitors and estate agents as well as heavy furniture and boxes of personal belongings, there’s no denying that moving house is stressful.

Don’t rush to sell or throw away items you’re unsure about, simply store your goods with us until the time is right.

seasonal storage solutions

Seasonal storage

Did you know that Christmas decorations are up for less than 10% of the year? Put simply, your tree is taking up precious attic space for the remaining 90%. Flexible storage units allow for seasonal changes where you can store away certain items and bring out others. From golf clubs to skis to clothes, optimise the space in your home and make seasonal transitions more manageable.
