Great experience from start to finish.

Never used a storage facility before but would certainly recommend using store first self storage. The facilty provides 24/7 access which is convenient and secure.
The customer service was excellent, the staff member was very helpful and accommodating and assisted with the unit sizing and logistics. The unit is very clean and the introductory offer was a bonus.

Made life so much easier fantastic storage and service

Fantastic, I had down sized property and all my stuff filled my new place giving me no room to decorate or for the plastering to be done.
Son only had a small van.
They came with a van waited while my son and mate filled the van with my stuff then went to the lock up we're my son met him nice polite lad then put it in storage. 64.00 for the month and that was with the young man and van. Special offer on at the moment.
My son said mum plenty more room for more stuff no problem and I can go down any time you like.
Excellent service, fantastic communication all insured as well. I would highly recommend them.
Happy customer.

Stress-free property move. Easily 5 stars!

I tend not to leave reviews often, but this place easily warrants it. I used a large unit for two months earlier this year due to an unanticipated property move. This place was the only part of the entire process that had zero stress or pressure, when navigating the logistics of everything to do.

Firstly, this is not the cheapest storage place in the area, which you possibly already know. However, when checking alternatives, I had suspicions it would be a false economy to go elsewhere and lose the services this company provide - and after using this place for several months and completing the move, my suspicions were easily warranted.

Sign up procedure: Quick and easy. No upfront deposit required. You just pay upfront for 4-week blocks, but you can stop with 1 day notice and they will refund you any unused days once your unit is empty.

They provide:
One free large van collection if you are a new customer and local to the area. This was a game changer as it substantially reduced the cost of a self van hire or removal firm to move things in (and further justifies their rates). Their van will arrive at your location at an agreed day/time, let you load their van in the order you prefer, and then drive back to the storage place for you to unload.

24/7 access. This was also a game changer as most competitors had limits on access days and times. Even if you intend to operate within Mon-Fri 9-5, things can go wrong (motorway closures, road incidents, delivery companies don't arrive on time etc... or maybe you simply forgot the odd item). I spent most of the moving time in the early evenings and weekends which suited my schedule and helped immensely.

Free padlock. Not much for some - but it saves hassel until you can grab your own if you didn't arrive with one.

Large loading bay. I ended up visiting about 20 times all told. There was only once when I needed to wait 5 minutes until a parking bay became available on an exceptionally busy weekend. All other times there was plenty of space.

They provide small and large flatbeds and lift forks to help shuttle everything from the loading bay into your unit. I had no issues moving anything from small tubs through sofas.

A shop with boxes, protective packaging, dust covers, tapes and other items. Useful once everything is in place if you notice you misjudged storage plans! They also have large TVs showing 24/7 CCTV monitoring for your peace of mind.

A PO box/recipient service if you need anything delivered here directly (I didn't have a need for this myself).

Toilets and a kitchen room with free tea/coffee, vending machine, microwaves. This really helped with the larger moving days!

The building is also kept very clean and tidy - it was actually surprising when I first arrived given the nature of their business.

The team themselves are also very cheery and helpful. Rob, the manager of the Preston location clearly knows his craft, as well as predicting the kinds of queries or concerns customers who are in the process of moving house may have.

I would definitely use this facility again in the future if/when needed.

Thank you so much for this incredibly detailed and thoughtful review! It means a great deal to us that your experience with our Preston location brought you genuine peace of mind during what can be a very stressful time.

We’re glad the flexibility of our 24/7 access, the free van collection, and thoughtful extras like the loading bay, equipment, and even the kitchen facilities made such a positive difference for you. Rob and the entire team take pride in anticipating and addressing the real needs of customers navigating moves, and your recognition of their care is truly appreciated.

Your balanced insight about pricing alongside the value of our services helps others see the full picture, and your intention to use us again is the highest compliment we could receive. Thank you for sharing your experience so generously!
