News & Updates

All products and services in our life have vast differences in quality, and self storage is no different. There are cheap Storage options that appear good on paper but when you look at them you may find them to be dirty, dark and dingy. Do some research and ask questions so that you store your stuff at a place that cares about you and your goods.

Here are 5 quick questions to assist when considering storing your valuable stuff.

1. Can I come and go when I like? 
Putting your stuff in self storage can be a short-term temporary measure while you reorganise your life. Having freedom to access your stuff becomes highly important and cost effective. Some professional storage companies offer 24/7 access 7 days a week with associated high-end security. Others step down to simply business hours. While some are very limited to set times of the week. Cheap storage results in cheap options. 

2. Does the space provider own or lease their property? 
The time you need to store your stuff can vary. On average people use storage for 9 months, some people do store for years. There are so many storage units Sydney and other storage options that look enticing due to a low price. The question is are they reputable enough to be trustworthy with your goods. Do they own the property or are you renting space from the middle man. You could easily be asked to vacate if the “middle man” goes bust or the real owner of the building sells up. Store with people that care about you and your goods.

3. Is the operator a reputable trustworthy enterprise or an enigma with no substance or could vanish?
New peer-to-peer storage space people have no track record. They have no brand value to preserve to ensure the experience is of value. They have no incentive to create an outcome that is for the enduring benefit of their business. They have not invested heavily in the asset to create something that will last. They are using idle space for a quick buck. They can be here today and gone tomorrow. Yes, they might have a few nice reviews, but these are easily abandoned if they are tempted to take the space back. Or worse, just take your stuff.

4. Are there any hidden fees and charges?
Many storage operators offer enticing entry prices to get people in, then when hooked they clip you for credit card surcharges; administration fees; cleaning fees; late access fees, and many more! Most storage operators do not refund your unused rent if you move out with some rent in credit. Yes, unbelievably they keep your money! 

5. How secure is your stuff?
Renting a garage or spare room in someone’s home has obvious weaknesses for access and privacy.

It is likely there is another key or another way to access the space.
