Brilliant store manager

I would specifically like to praise store manager Adam White who went above and beyond in excellent customer service to help me when I had trouble with the Noke app to get into the premises after hours. He stayed behind past his usual shift and is a credit to the company.

Excellent service at Safestore Southend from Candice who helped me find the right storage unit at the right price for a short term hold. Plenty of parking and the units are very clean. Very professional service. Would highly recommend

Caution: Eastbourne branch

When I moved into Eastbourne branch i gave a 5 star review. The older gentleman on reception was very helpful. Fast forward 6 months, when the introductory rate was ending, i gave appropriate notice and vacated on the final day as arranged. I did multiple trips to my vehicle and two trips to the store, within 2 to 3 hours in the morning. Signed in and out both times, exchanged pleasantries with the unfamiliar bloke on reception and with another staff member outside my near empty unit, as my trolley was blocking his way. As i signed out for the final time i could see the sole receptionist was involved with a customer so being in a hurry, just left. So Safestore decided i hadn't officially ended my contract as i didn't inform reception i was done, as requested in an email sent weeks earlier (i thought they were perfectly aware of what i was doing) and the next day invoiced me for another month. Luckily i had cancelled the dd. Several appeals to their manager got nowhere and i was warned if i didn't pay the invoice within 14 days it would be sent to debt collectors. So I appealed to head office. Their regional manager Hanif quickly got back to me to say he had cancelled the invoice - so I've no beef with Safestore at all, Hanif deserves 5 stars. But this review is about Eastbourne store, and because of the unnecessary stress they caused, i won't ever be going back.

Safestore Edgware

I had a great experience with Safestore Self Storage Edgware. From my very first visit, Navoda was incredibly helpful and professional. She took the time to show me around the facility, explained everything clearly, and helped me find the right storage option for my needs.

What really stood out was her excellent customer service. She followed up with me throughout the entire process until everything was completed, making the experience smooth and hassle-free.

The facility is clean, secure, and well maintained. I highly recommend Safestore Self Storage Edgware.

Finn was amazing from our initial conversation to us moving in.

On the day of moving we decided to change the size of the unit and that was no problem- he didn’t time to ensure we had what we needed and the price was right.
