Types of unit
Our different types of unit have different features, levels of accessibility and prices. Choose a unit type that suits you.
- If you want to drive a vehicle directly to the door of your unit – making loading and unloading easy – choose direct access storage. You pay for the convenience as these units are more expensive.
- If you don’t want the bother of putting your things in a lift – perhaps they’re heavy or cumbersome – choose ground floor access storage.
- Alternatively, if you don’t mind using the lift, choose upstairs storage accessed via lift. These are slightly cheaper units and ideal if you don’t need to store heavy or large items.
- If you’re looking for a cheaper unit and don’t mind it being an irregular shape, perhaps with a sloping roof, choose a value unit.
Ventilated storage
If you’re storing fabrics, files or equipment, you may want a unit that’s ventilated.
Some of our units come with the option of ventilation. All you have to do is upgrade to a ventilation option when you reserve your unit.
