People Say
Good value, easy and secure storage
Very straightforward secure storage. Great customer service and good value for money. Thank you.
Smooth, Secure, and Stress-Free Storage!
I used the Southwick site and couldn’t be happier with the experience. Renting the unit was really easy, the system was smooth, and I had great communication from the start—especially from Jonathan, who was brilliant throughout.No issues at all with the unit or gaining access. It was super handy while moving between houses and made the whole process much less stressful. Everything stayed secure and watertight, though after six months in storage, a couple of items did smell slightly damp. That was on me—I should’ve used tarpaulin or sealed bags.Would 100% recommend to friends and family. Great service, great team, and a really practical solution when you need it most.

Common questions & answers
Do I need insurance?
If you want insurance for your stored items, we recommend using a specialist provider like insurastore.com. This option is often more cost effective and comprehensive than the insurance offered by storage facilities.

Experience ultimate flexibility with our rentals—there’s no minimum or maximum stay! Simply give us 2 weeks’ notice and pay for a minimum of 2 weeks’ rent at full price.
