- If something can be broken down into smaller components, then its best to break it down.
- Leave some space between furniture, for circulation.
- Store electrical equipment and small items in sturdy boxes.

You can visit the site office during office hours and pay in person or arrange direct debit payments straight from your bank account.
The choice is yours!
How do I access my unit?
You’ll be given a personal access code that will allow you enter the facility any time during our access hours. This code will open the front gate and disarm the security alarm for your storage unit, while keeping the rest of facility armed.
What should I do if I forgot my access code or lost the key to my lock?
These things happen, and we’re here to help when they do. If you forget your access code or lose your key, contact our office directly to let us know, and we’ll discuss what can be done.
I have multiple people entering my unit, is there a way to tell who's entering & when the unit has been entered?
Every unit will be allocated one pass code which is added into our security system. This means each person will use the same pass code; however our CCTV footage records anyone entering and existing a unit and documents the time and date of each occurrence.
How secure are your storage units?
We take the security of the facility, and of your unit, very seriously. Our facility is protected with CCTV camera monitoring, individual unit alarms and a key access security gate system. They are also built using solid concrete.
Do I need insurance?
Goods held in self-storage remain the responsibility of the lessee (that’s you). In other words, our insurance covering the complex does not cover individual items within individual units.
It is strongly recommended that you take out insurance cover. We can organise insurance for you at very competitive prices. Try our online booking system to learn more about our prices or reach out to us for an exact quote.
Do the storage units have power?
Many of our units have power, but not all of them. Please get in touch to find out which units have access to a power point and lighting.
Can I receive packages at your facility?
Yes! One of the services we offer is to receive stock and goods on your behalf. We will sign and keep them safe and secure until it is convenient for you to come and get them. If your business is mobile with no permanent premises, we can take the pain out of receiving goods.
