Self-storage makes sense for both renters and home owners who are travelling

  • If you rent a room or a home: it can be easier to put your belongings into self-storage than trying to find people to look after them while you’re away. That way you won’t be imposing on friends or family.
  • If you own your own home: it can make sense to rent out your property and get some income from it while you are away. But you won’t necessarily want your tenants to have access to your possessions. Keep them in storage instead.

Shurgard has consistently been the cheapest option when looking for storage and setting it up was very easy. When I needed to change the size of my unit it happened very smoothly and I was taken to other units to be able to see the size before I decided. Excellent service and value for money.

Nikki was extremely helpful. Even though we were there just to gauge on storage sizes, she was happy to show us around and give us options for when we do decide.
