FAQs (Frequently asked questions)
Some of the more frequent questions members of the public tend to ask us regarding their lock up garage storage requirements:
Q) What forms of storage do you have?
A) Domestic lock up garage storage for private use
Q) How big is a lock up garage?
A) Lock up garages tend to vary - most are standard domestic size which equates to around 16.5 feet long by around 9 feet across. Some are slightly longer, and others will accommodate the height of a camper type vehicle. The approximate square footage of a single domestic garage on offer is around 150 square feet.
Q) Is your storage clean and dry?
A) All the garage units are well maintained and kept to excellent condition designed to carry all manner of goods.
Q) What sizes do you have?
A) All sizes vary - we're talking 16 foot in length up to around 18 foot in length. Enough to store the contents of a typical two bed house if needs be. However, you really need to pay us a visit and satisfy yourself.
Q) What am I allowed to store?
A) We allow you to store virtually anything as long as its legal and not prohibited. We won't allow certain high risk items such as quad bikes, trial bikes though.
Q) Are the storage units suitable for furniture ?
A) The storage units are suitable for virtually anything including furniture in some instances. If it's all completely furniture for a period of time, we can suggest container storage as an alternative.
Q) Can general public and business make use of them ?
A) YES - public or business, its open to anyone.
Q) How long can I take a unit for?
A) The minimum period is six months - this is due to admin and on-site time. Lets face it - a lock up garage doesn't cost that much! Due to the low cost of a garage, yes, we can do LESS than six months if pushed, but the cost would be significantly more and not reflect the 'from £60 a month' rate. For short term storage, you may find it easier with traditional self storage - take a look at our home page where we have suggested alternative self storage links.
Q) How do I go about booking something?
A) As we can't guarantee we have anything available, please don't leave us to the last minute. You may be disappointed if we're full. We usually have space but you are better making arrangements with us in advance as you may have to go on a waiting list. Your advised to email us if we don't have anything, that way, when we do we will contact you.
Q) Do you offer any other type of storage ?
A) We try to be a flexible operation - if you need something slightly special, please try us, we will try to provide storage solutions based on your requirements.
Q) Are there any hidden charges ?
A) NO - Usually its a £50 - £100 deposit and a month in advance. No extras.
Q) Where are you based ?
A) We have quite a number of sites and for security reasons, won't give out a list of sites ad-hoc unless we have something spare on a particular site. In any case, visits are strictly by appointment for security purposes. What we have is explained on this site in great detail and offer genuine low prices with a price guarantee for like for like storage. If we understand what you need, we will welcome you to take a look at what we have. However, our sites are based around Carlisle mainly in gated compounds with security measures.
Q) Do I have 24 hour access ?
A) YES - you have a key for the main gate and your unit meaning you can come and go as you please.
Q) How much ?
A) From £60+ per month depending on size and location
Q) How much space do I need to store my furniture ?
A) How long is piece of string - As a guide a typical garage will hold the contents of a one/two bedroom house, but if it's just furniture storage, please take a look at the links on our home page who specialise in furniture storage.
Q) Can I rack out a garage ?
A) YES - so long as you don't drill hoes through a metal roof. This is permitted.
Q) Are they secure ?
A) We tend to rent garages in decent areas many in compounds, but some out of compounds.
Q) Do you provide a key ?
A) YES, all garages have a key if it's an up and over door.
Q) Does external storage suffer from damp ?
A) Our garages mainly have damp proofing and correct damp proof courses when originally built, however, for private vehicle storage which what they were constructed for, they are absolutely fine. Some garages have insulated roofs which can accommodate household contents etc.
Q) Why are you so cheap ?
A) We own and operate all our own sites i.e. we don't rent the land the storage sits on meaning we can be very competitive. All our sites are kept clean and tidy. We represent fantastic value for money.
