I was using lock stock for 3 years

I was using lock stock for 3 years , the last 6 months I realised they had taken two more payments in error and also charged me a whole first month instead of two weeks,for the first month
they also very sneakily keep payments for new customers at the same price on there website but for old customers sneakily put the price up and up inconsistently,
Lock Stock Containers took two months money from my account twice when they should not have. I raised this with them, but still have not received my money back.

This is completely unacceptable. A company should not be taking payments in error and then failing to return the funds. The lack of accountability and poor handling of this situation has caused unnecessary stress and inconvenience.
Terrible handling over a basic issue.

Based on my experience, I would not recommend this company. If you use them, check your payments very carefully.
This is a very worrying and the company is not to be trusted.
I will be escalating it to trading standards .

Hi Lisa,

We’re disappointed to hear that you felt the need to leave a review following the extensive correspondence regarding your account.

Your account has been reviewed on multiple occasions and escalated to senior management to ensure it was thoroughly checked. We took considerable time to investigate all of the concerns you raised and provided detailed explanations of how your account, invoices, and payments were calculated.

Despite reviewing the account several times and explaining our findings in different ways, our conclusion has remained the same: all invoices and payments were applied correctly, in line with your licence agreement, and the balance stands as advised.

This position has been clearly set out in previous correspondence. If you are able to provide any new information that has not already been reviewed, we would of course consider this.

The last thing we want is for a customer to be unhappy with their experience. We pride ourselves on delivering a high level of customer service and have built our business on strong word-of-mouth, repeat business, and customer referrals, which makes situations like this particularly disappointing for us.

Kind regards,

Lock Stock Self Storage Team

They have a user friendly website for booking with same day access. The whole process was quick and hassle free, they also have no minimum term which is amazing. Definitely a company I’d use again

First time renting a unit of this type and so sceptical but 7 months later we know we made the right decision with Lock Stock. Seamless from day 1, the container was clean, remained dry throughout in secure, well lit sites.

Can’t fault the Lock Stock team - great experience!

⭐️ 1 Star

⭐️ 1 Star – Avoid at all costs

Absolutely awful experience. The storage container I was given was damp, mouldy, and completely unfit for purpose. From the moment I opened it, there was a strong musty smell and visible mould on the walls. This is not what you expect when trusting a company with your belongings.

When I raised concerns, they were brushed off with excuses rather than solutions. No urgency, no accountability, and certainly no proper customer service. I ended up worrying constantly about damage to my items, which defeats the entire point of using a storage facility.

For a company advertising “secure” storage, this was anything but. Damp, mould, poor communication, and zero care for customers. I would strongly recommend looking elsewhere unless you’re happy risking your belongings.

Thank you for leaving this review. We take claims of this nature extremely seriously, particularly where they relate to the condition of our storage units.

Following a detailed and rigorous investigation, we have been unable to find any record of a booking, container allocation, complaint, or correspondence that matches the experience described. This includes checks across our customer database, site records, maintenance logs, and communication history. We have also cross-checked related feedback left on other platforms to ensure no genuine interaction has been overlooked.

All of our containers are inspected before hire, kept off the ground, ventilated, and monitored as part of our routine site checks. Any report of damp or mould would be treated as a priority and addressed immediately; however, we can find no evidence that such an issue was ever raised with us.

If you believe this review has been posted in error, or if there are details we may be missing, we invite you to contact us directly with your name, site location, and booking reference so we can investigate further.

We are always open to resolving genuine concerns and stand by the standard of service we provide to our customers.

Needed Temporary Storage - Great Service!

I needed a temporary storage unit urgently and I was very impressed with the whole setup! Instructions were easy to follow and the experience was very smooth. Vacating the storage unit was also equally hassle free and very straight forward. I would highly recommend this service and if I needed a storage unit in future, I will be back.

Convenient and easily accessible

Really easy to use, lovely clean and insulated unit. We found it safe and convenient with no problems whatever. It made it possible to have work done in my house with all my belongings safely stored for six months and also accessible whenever I needed something.
