Business storage FAQs

What size storage unit does my business need?

Our units run from a locker (about 1m²) to an oversized garage (18-27m²), plus outdoor spaces for vehicles and mobile containers. For business stock, a quarter garage holds about 4 pallets, a half garage 6-8 pallets and a single garage 8-16 pallets. If you are between sizes, we suggest sizing up. Not sure? Match me to my unit.

Can I store stock for my online store?

Yes. Many online sellers use a unit for overflow and seasonal stock. We receive deliveries during store opening hours, log them and notify you.

Can I get access outside the standard hours?

Yes. Standard site access is 6am to 9pm, 365 days a year including public holidays. You can request extended site access when you send your enquiry, and our team will confirm the details for your site.
