As we know moving in can be a stressful time and things do not always run to schedule, you can choose to have 24 hour access to our site. This means you can come and go through our key code access system anytime of day and night even when we are closed. It also allows you to move in anytime, including bank holidays as we can arrange your paperwork and payment ahead of time - you don't even need to come to site prior to moving your goods in. Now if we could only get it so your items would teleport themselves instead of needing a van it really would be the easiest process in the world.
Why don't other companies offer this service? Well we had to invest heavily in the gate, security and access software in order to make this happen. So now we can offer access to our site and your goods twenty four hours a day and seven days a week, if required. If you don't think you'll need the access 24/7, you can still come and go for free during our normal access hours seven days a week or you can pay a small fee to have the 24/7 entry.
We don't require a deposit when you start using us, we just ask for you to pay your rent in advance, four weeks at a time. If you plan to stay for a shorter period than this we then then refund any rent that you haven't used when you come to move out. We know how tight cash flow can be, especially if you're moving house so we really don't see a need for a deposit when you move in to storage. Plymouth has a lot more exciting ways to spend your money than on deposits.
If you are looking for short or long term storage in Plymouth then we have the solution. Store your personal belongings or for your business and the minimum commitment is only 14 days on our regular sized units. Our smallest units have a minimum term of 28 days. There is not a maximum period of time you can store, so if you require a temporary arrangement or if you're looking at the long term, it is totally up to you. Plus you only pay for the days you use, any rent that you have paid for that you haven't used is refunded to you when you move out. We only require 14 days notice when you come to move out. This is usually plenty of time as most people are moving house (either in or out of a house) and whether you're giving notice to a landlord or working with solictiors 14 days is plenty - let's face it, 4 weeks is moving fast when it comes to legal contracts!
Our self storage in Plymouth, Devon is very secure with a two metre high perimeter fence surrounding the facility. The 24 hour digital CCTV is recorded and remotely monitored. The main entry gate has a key pad entry system which allows us to keep the gates closed at all times. The software then tracks who comes and goes through the gate which is of course well covered by multiple cameras surrounding the gate. You couldn't find more secure storage in Plymouth.
We specially import our locks from the USA (that's where our industry came from after all) so that you have the most secure, tamper proof locks. These unpickable locks are yours to keep when you leave. As you are the only one holding the keys you are safe in the knowledge that only you have access to your goods. The locks come with more than one key so friends and family can have access - only if you want them to of course. You may also want to give a key to your removals firm either on move in or move out. Again that is up to you. We don't hold a key and we don't have a master key, so you really are the only people who can gain entry to your belongings. So when your friend offers you their leaking garage to store your items it might be worth asking them how safe your goods will be.
The buildings themselves are insulated floor to ceiling with high levels of insulation making them better insulated that the majority of warehouses and even some homes. The doors themselves are even insulated allowing every area to be insulated and removing the possibility of 'cold spots'. So it really will be a home from home for the items you store at our Plymouth self storage site. Before you ask we can't put an en suite in so you can live in it!
With the twenty four hour access it does mean you can move in to your room anytime you like. You can check in to your room online at any time of day, and begin storing straight away if you wish. So should you want to move in on a Sunday morning or even at 3am then you can do. Just call us and we can tell you how. We are the only Plymouth storage company offering this service. We've had people move back from abroad using it and people on night shifts - there's nothing worse than using up holiday entitlement at work to moving house if you don't have to.
Our 10 square feet and 30 sq ft spaces are very popular for student self storage in Plymouth. To give you a guide, an old red phone box is 9 square feet (3 foot by 3 foot) so the 10 square foot is slightly bigger and is our lowest cost option. It's ideal for stacking some boxes of books and bags of clothes in. Bigger than lockers, it mean you can even fit a flat screen in (our units are designed to store electrical items and soft furnishings). Often students storing this kind of quantity just use a taxi to get their goods to us, it's a lot more affordable than using a man with van or hiring a van for just a few items.
The thirty square foot unit is more like the size of a small garden shed (8 foot by just under 4 foot) and you could fit some small amounts of furniture in there or boxes / luggage and a bicycle. If your items are flat-packed, collapsible Ikea style items then you can usually fit more in. Don't forget your Allen key!
If you are working on a tight budget then you are welcome to share the room with your flat mates or friends at university so three of you could club together and get a thirty rather than having a twelve square foot each. This works out more cost effective and allows you to put more bulky items in there.
If you are thinking of putting items not in your bedroom, such as a sofa or any large furniture in to the room you will probably need to go for a 50 square foot space or above.
Our rooms are designed to store soft furnishings and electrical items. The majority of our customers are residential people storing their house contents. We recommend furniture covers when transporting and storing your goods. It is important keep them dry when loading and unloading so you aren't taking any moisture in to your room. You will also need to drain your washing machine and defrost and drain any fridge or freezer you wish to store. So for furniture storage in Plymouth give us a call.
Our larger rooms are about the size of a single garage, 120 square feet which is roughly 15 foot in length and 8 foot in width with the height being roughly 7 foot. There are also a limited amount of units bigger than this. You can of course mix and match and take more than one room if required.
When thinking about size, picture your whole house or flat. Think about areas where you may have items you've forgotten such as garages, sheds, under stairs, closets, on top of cupboards, lofts etc. and remember items such as garden furniture. Use the size estimator in our quote form to get a better idea or please feel free to call us.
If you turn up to site and you think "Aargh, I've got too much stuff", then we can arrange for you to take another size or an extra room - subject to availability of course.
Most, if not all facilities work in square feet but if you have been given a cubic feet measurement (or any other units) we are happy to convert that in to square feet for you.
If you're trying to sort out storing from a distance it can seem a bit daunting but hopefully we can make it easy for you. We are able to sort out your reservation and process your move in to store with us without you being present. This is especially helpful when you might have a removals firm bringing the items in to the facility when you're not around or available. We are pretty flexible on dates, you can reserve your space eight weeks in advance without needing to provide an exact day when you will start using it. When sending cargo across the seas, for example, it can be particularly hard to have an exact date, we understand that. This is something we have dealt with many times and the reservation process works really well, knowing you have your room ready gives you peace of mind allowing you to concentrate on other things apart from self storage! Plymouth awaits, contact us today. We are happy to be contacted by email (just fill out the quote form and we can come back to you) or we can ring you abroad, whichever you prefer.
We've got a few grey hairs in our office, enough to make us feel old anyway. We've been through the whole removal / moving house process a few times and we have certainly dealt with a lot of people who have had the 'joys' of moving. We thought we'd pass on a few golden nuggets from our experience.
When packing boxes, pack them as full as possible so they don't collapse when stacked. If they're then too heavy to lift then you've probably chosen a larger box than needed!
Next label your boxes, writing on the label which room it is going in but also a decent description. "Kitchen / pots and pans" is a good label, "misc" is not!
Use fragile tape to mark the delicate boxes - you don't need to wrap the whole box in it but you do need to see the tape from the sides and the top. A "This Way Up" type arrow also goes a long way.
When you've packed all your cardboard boxes and are ready for the big day, don't put all your items in one room. It might be nice to have them out of the way but it can create a real bottle neck as you all try to get in that room to get the items out.
At a self storage facility in Plymouth? Surely not? Well it's true, in our grounds there is the only known wild occurrence of the Plymouth Pear. In fact in our pictures above you can see them - no not Jason and Ryan, our employees posing as customers, although their acting could be described as wooden! We have a section of our grounds that are put to one side especially for the safe keeping of the pears and the shrubs that intermingle with them. Sadly while they are called pears they are more like little berries and not edible. The way they taken care of on our site has been overseen by Natural England as they are protected under the Wildlife and Countryside Act.
