Very occasionally a customer comes along and asks us to store something that (for sound insurance reasons) we just won’t store inside. Things like paint, which, being so flammable, we won’t put near other customers’ things. Then it makes sense to store in a container, in the yard, away from the building. If you’ve got a need to store something that might fall into this category, we can provide a newly (or recently) re-furbished 20 or 40 foot long container.
As a general principle though, we don’t recommend containers to store furniture and soft furnishings – there’s too high a risk of condensation spoiling things. We wouldn’t use one for our household stuff, if that tells you anything….
Actually, we can’t, and so won’t, “Guarantee” the security of your goods. But, what we can promise is that we make all reasonable efforts to make sure your things are safe and sound with us.
Both our sites have electronic access control systems, and all our rooms are individually alarmed. You choose a PIN that you use to get into and out of the building. Entering your PIN opens the electric entry doors, and turns on (or off) the alarm on your room.
Both sites have CCTV cameras covering key areas. These are recorded 24/7 and monitored out of hours by specialists Camwatch.
Both sites have full intruder alarms, and, again, these are monitored out of hours. The fire detection systems in both sites are state-of the-art; these too are monitored 24/7.
And finally, all our rooms require you to lock them with a padlock. You put the lock on, and you keep the key…..

Having used the container for 6 years now, I can happily say it is the perfect solution for storing the paints and greases we use on the Leicestershire jobs.
