Long-term self-storage for travelling

Secure self storage for when you travel abroad

Whether you’re away enjoying the expat life or the trip of a lifetime, being away is less stressful when you know your belongings are stored safely.

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.

Why Shurgard is great for travellers

Whether you are going for just a few weeks or months or for much longer, you can choose a flexible storage option with Shurgard.

Moving is always stressful. However, Val and Alfonso made it so much easier than expected. They could not have been more helpful. Friendly, transparent, clear, exceptional service. Nothing was too much trouble and they clearly enjoy their jobs. A big thank you guys. Pete Crouch.
