How Safe and Secure Are Storage Containers?
December 01, 2021
Storage containers come in a variety of shapes and sizes, providing excellent durability, security and versatility.
Most storage containers are constructed of galvanised steel, meaning they are ideal for storing household furniture, vehicles, antiques, confidential paperwork, products, clothing and machinery. After all, shipping containers are primarily built to provide maximum cargo security and ensure they’re impenetrable. Therefore, it’s challenging to find a safer and more secure storage solution today!
Maximum security
Security is one of the major advantages of opting for a self-contained storage solution. With the sealed roofs, walls and floors, you not only have a container with excellent build quality, but many sites provide CCTV coverage, gated access and a high-quality lock, allowing you to enjoy complete peace of mind that your belongings will remain safe and sound. You can also add your own padlock to your enclosed container for further protection.
Protection against the elements
With any high-quality storage container, it’s highly unlikely your goods will be damaged by water, pests or fire. With your self-storage unit being one of many on a secure, well-maintained site, you can lock and leave knowing your belongings are safe from the outside elements.
Space and flexibility
Storage containers offer a great deal of space — most people are surprised at how much they can fit in our brand new 20ft shipping containers. To give you an idea, they can hold the contents of an average 4-bedroom house! This amount of room makes it easy to store everything from furniture to appliances, vehicles, and boxes of clothing.
Convenience
Storage containers are incredibly convenient, allowing you to access your belongings at any time. For example, our site is open seven days a week (Mon-Fri 7am-7pm, Sat-Sun 8am-4pm), so you can come and go as you please, making it easy to get what you need when you need it.
Affordable
Storage containers are also a very affordable option. We can only speak for ourselves, with our prices remaining low all year round — and absolutely no bank guarantees or large deposits required. You don’t need to sign complicated leases either, whilst you can store for as little as a month, for as long as you need!
Easy to load
You can park up and unload directly from your vehicle into your unit for quick and straightforward self-storage. We also have ramps at no extra cost if you’re storing a vehicle. But by being able to back right up to your door to unload, you save valuable time and make the process of loading and unloading smooth and stress-free.
