Who can use self storage?

Summer time is the perfect time to have a good sort out at home. Whether you are sorting out your attic, reshuffling your shed or getting your garage organised, making the most of your space is essential. 


But what happens to the items you would like to keep but simply don't have enough space for?

So who can use self storage?

Our multi-purpose storage units are available to everyone. Some customers use our units as a short term storage solution e.g. storage for wedding items, storing college/university-bound items, or for furniture during pending house sales.

Other customers use our units for longer term storage e.g. fine art storage and collector items such as antiques. Our climate controlled storage units are perfect for storing items that could be affected by temperature, dust, mould and rodents if they were stored in garages or sheds. If you are a small business with limited space, our storage units are the ideal solution for storing your surplus stock.

Should I get a Self Storage unit?

Are you a bargain hunter? Do you shop online or use Ebay to buy and sell? Do you scour the weekend boot sales looking for a bargain?

Many of us would list shopping as a favourite past time. With shops and online companies offering frequent promotions, it is often hard to resist. The result? Our homes are filling up with more and more items, limiting the space we once had. 

With space becoming limited, lots of people are turning to self storage to help ease the pressure from their homes.

Self Storage Top Tips

 

What To Store

 

It is easy to simply box up your belongings and stick them in self storage. However, doing this creates the risk of not knowing what you have stored, storing things you don't actually need and therefore wasting some of your much needed storage space.  Before self storing, go through your belongings to work out what is worth keeping and what can be sold/got rid of. Also consider seasonal items - do you really need to store Halloween/Christmas items in your house all year round? Once you have agreed on the items you are going to store, why not try and box similar items together to make identification at the self storage unit that much easier.  

Our online Box Store has all the boxes and packing materials you will need, and we even offer Box Packages so you don't just have to buy boxes individually.

 Cost

 

At Cube Self Storage we have a range of unit sizes to suit your needs, including Climate Controlled Storage Units for specialist items. This is why sorting your items prior to storing is so important - once you know exactly what you want to store you have a better idea of the right size unit for you, with no wasted space (or being charged for unused space). View our Storage Unit Size Guide to work out what is best for you. If you are still unsure, contact a member of our friendly team to arrange a viewing of our units. We also offer a Price Promise - if you like our storage units but have had a cheaper quote elsewhere - we will beat it!

Timeline

 

Your items are sorted, boxed and ready to go. You know which size unit to get to suit your needs, so now there is one thing left to decide on: TIME. 

For some people self storage is temporary - between house moves, storing things for a wedding etc, but there are many people that use self storage on a longer term basis. 

Try and have a clear focus for how long your things will be in storage - this will help you budget for storage rental costs. Of course, there are times where our plans change and our storage unit hire duration needs to be extended- our team will be happy to discuss this with you. 

We hope these tips have been useful. If you would like to find out more visit our website www.cubeselfstorage.co.uk or call a member of our team on

Happy Self Storing!

Moving on

According to a recent survey at gocompare.com, nearly 2/3 of Brits are considering moving in the next 12 months. 

Why are we wanting to move?

There are many reasons for deciding to move:

• Downsizing 
• Upsizing due to needing more space
• Moving area
• Emigrating
• Buying first home
• Separation from partner
• Moving to university
• Moving in with friends
• Relocating offices

Whatever the reason for moving, many of us know it can be a lengthy process. It can also be a worrying time, particularly when some people are faced with a deadline for vacating a property.

How can Cube Self Storage help?

We offer secure self storage units in a range of sizes to suit the needs and time frame of each individual customer. Our website page "What size do I need?" offers a sizing guide to help you to work out which unit will best suit your requirements. View our videos of our self storage units here.

Sometimes our customers need specialized storage for items such as artwork, clothing and wine storage. Our climate controlled storage units are the perfect solution - not only will your items be safe, but they will also be temperature protected. 

Whether you are looking for a long term storage solution (some customers have even chosen self storage as an alternative to moving house!), or a temporary storage solution mid move, the team at Cube Self Storage will be happy to help.
