With rising mortgage rates, soaring rent and energy bills and no clear resolution for the cost of living crisis, many are looking to downsize to save costs wherever possible. And with almost a quarter of all homemovers downsizing last year, you are not alone.
A big concern for many looking to move home or downsize is whether their belongings will be safe in self-storage. With damp, pests and mould posing a big threat to precious heirlooms, antiques, clothing and more, ensuring you find a unit with the right features to keep your items protected is key.
Whether you’re looking to downsize to save costs, for a change of scenery or because your not-so-little ones have finally flown the nest, we can help!
Keep reading to discover how we can take the stress out of your next move.
#1 Convenience and Flexibility
Downsizing doesn’t have to mean less space. With self-storage on side, you can unlock more space for less and leave room for those possessions you just can’t bear to part with. Be it your out-of-season clothing, festive decorations, keepsakes or sports gear, our secure storage units give you the flexibility to keep hold of those less-used items ready for when you need them.
With contracts starting from just four weeks, our units also make a great temporary storage solution for between moves! Our long opening hours (every day from 6am-9pm) and prime locations mean you can access what you want when you need it. Plus, our outdoor sites allow you to drive right up to your unit for easy loading and unloading, making your storage experience that little bit easier!
“Stored house contents prior to a move. Took the stress out of moving day so we didn’t have to do everything in one go. Access is great being a storage container at ground level with large doors.”
– Timothy Smalls, Google Review
We understand things can change without warning, so if you no longer require your unit, there’ll be no harsh penalties from us. We just require one week’s notice – yep, 7 days! – with the option to receive a pro-rata refund or donate the remainder of your monthly fee to Megan Baker House. If you choose to donate your refund, we’ll even match it and take care of everything for you!

“My belongings were in just as good condition as when I packed and put them into storage. Air-conditioned units kept everything, including an extensive vinyl record collection in perfect condition. Clothes were instantly wearable.”
