Used this storage facility for nearly 2yrs and it was excellent, never any issues and easy access with helpful equipment for moving items around. It was the cheapest we found too which was a bonus! Big thanks to staff member Billy for his assistance on our move out day!

Anthony was really helpful in getting my unit set up, he even got me a cheaper deal on a larger unit than the one I had initially reserved online. Access is ideal and the process was made really straightforward by Anthony.
