First storage day arrival

First storage day arrival, could not find someone to get initial access but eventually when staff was found, the process was very helpful and for the remainder of the day all was straightforward

6-star service!

Absolutely flawless from start to finish. We urgently needed a unit due to a house move, and within the hour I was in my lock-up storing boxes. Mani, who picked up my call, was such a great help, as was the lady at the units (who seems to do everything!), and the follow-up call a day or two after to check everything was OK. I really can't find fault.

Do not put the card for payment of…direct debit

Do not put the card for payment of services for storage of your things, on direct debit. They withdraw money when they want and as much as they want. When they are told about it, they just say Sorry. This is not acceptable.

The actual storage itself is great but the fact you just woke me up emailing me at 4.50am annoyed me so you get one star

Northampton Riverside branch

Using the Northampton Riverside branch, dealing with the lovely Emma. Moving is so stressful but Shurgard have made this part very easy. Locker is a really good size, easy to get in and very clean. Thumbs up, definitely recommended.

Absolutely rubbish

Absolutely rubbish, I paid my money for the first month then got charged another £504, once this month is over, myself and any of my clients won’t be using your storage again, we have sent a lot of customers your way in the last 5 years, and this is how you treat us in return, we will be using another storage from now on

Execellent and affordable Service

The allocation process was swift in less than six hours my load was already in the storage and the cost is very affordable.
Lift is also available because i was allocated second floor and this made the movement seamless.
The follow up and notification was also fantastic.

Hired some self storage today

Hired some self storage today. I tried to do it all online at their website. I couldn't complete it online because I had my own insurance( which I got 6 months for the price of 2 that they were asking for. ) There is no option on the website to use your own insurance. So I had to go to the branch to complete the hire. Since I didn't do it online I was charged a £20 admin fee. So if you have your own insurance you basically pay a £20 penalty. The staff at Riverside were very helpful though.

Ripped off

Well, after moving into my storage location, I was informed I wasn't aloud to have a gas bottle in there, which is fair enough, then to receive a rude phone call on the Friday to remind me id left the gas bottle outside the building which I completely forgot to pick up, the manager is very rude to speak to, which I told her I'd be round to collect the next day as I wasn't in the area, and then received a email to say I've been billed £50 for rubbish after I told her I would collect it, I went round the next day like id said to find the gas bottle has been taking by another customer, yes my own fault to which I accept this, but to be billed £50 is disgusting!!!!!
