Excellent customer service.

I spoke firstly to Sarah, then next call was with Kelly. These ladies are a credit to your company, really pleasant and helpful.
I ended up not needing the unit, but would absolutely use this company in the future.

Brilliant customer service very helpful and friendly. When the removal van got there my unit wasn't big enough so they sorted a bigger one immediately. One less thing to worry about on a very stressful day

Outstanding customer service

I required emergency storage and carried out an online quote late at night to get an idea of prices.
I was pleasantly surprised by the quote.

This was followed up first thing the next morning by a phone call from Kelly.
After an explanation of what types of unit were available, how long the minimum rental is, how to make payment and how to give notice to vacate I was happy to proceed there and then.
I was able to arrange everything remotely and set up an online account, it could not have been made simpler by SCA.
They had been recommended to me by a local removal and logistics company, Awesome Logistics who I also cannot recommend highly enough.

I chose a storage container outside so that the logistics company could pull straight up and unload directly into the container.
The location of the storage is very convenient as it is just off the A19 in Sunderland.

When I gave notice that I would be vacating the unit my refund for unused weeks and the security deposit were processed quickly by Sarah.
The staff were kind and very helpful. They put me in touch with other local businesses to help resolve my predicament.

Sarah & Kelly provide outstanding customer service, not something you come across that often nowadays.
I would recommend SCA on the ability to get a quote online and their prices but factor in their customer service and it made a headache into a very pleasant experience.
