FAQ's

Will there be staff on hand to help me move in?
add
maximize
Lots of storage facilities have staff on site who can help, especially the indoor storage warehouses. Check out the individual operator pages to find out more, or add this to your filter options when searching for self storage.
Is self storage secure?
add
maximize
Most self storage facilities go to great lengths to make their storage spaces as secure as possible - they don’t want problems any more than you do. Members of The Self Storage Association are required to provide a minimum level of security including CCTV systems, a secure perimeter and meeting all fire and safety regulations. To find the best self storage near you, be sure to filter by security requirements when searching.
Can I access my contents whenever I want?
add
maximize
It varies. Many storage facilities now offer 24/7 access, although for some this is a premium service. This will be detailed in their individual listing on Explorage. Some facilities offer access during normal working hours, and some don’t offer access at all and collect/bring your stuff to you. Have a think about what you might need and use our filter options to tailor your search results and find the best self storage near you.
How much does self storage cost?
add
maximize
Like renting a house, the cost of storage can vary depending on the space you need and where you need it. Industry reports suggest an average of £69 a month for a 60ft2 unit, with an average shipping container of 160ft2 coming in around £130 per month. Remove the guessing with our accurate space calculator so you only pay for what you need.
How much does Explorage charge?

Explorage is an entirely free service for people booking storage. A small commission-based fee is collected from the storage business when you move in, much like other marketplaces such as booking.com or Airbnb. If you’re a storage operator, check out our pricing page for full details.
Is there a minimum rental time? add maximize
Each storage operator will have their own terms and conditions which will specify the minimum rental period. This is usually a month, but some operators offer shorter terms. Check out the individual operator pages to find out more.

I have been very impressed so far with Blue, I went to their Tyneside location to rent a unit for my business and it couldn’t have been easier! They had me set up in one day, and Meg from the sales team was just amazing! The container is clean, and the land is well looked after. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for storage!

Everything from booking to cancelling was really simple.

First Class, OUTSTANDING Service From the initial call, to final drop off, Doree Bonner delivered a first class service. Notably, both removals staff that facilitated our move were friendly, accommodating, helpful, professional and couldn’t have made our move any easier. In the last 18 years we’ve moved 11 times, and can honestly say that this move was by far the best service we’ve ever had. The...

We had Cox pack and move for us. They were very professional, very friendly and so helpful. The service isn't cheap, but it was worth every penny and more! Our items were packed expertly, unpacked into the correct room and everything came through in perfect condition. Would highly recommend and use again.

I rented a small storage unit (which was very spacious) here for a few months. The staff were extremely helpful in setting everything up and answering my questions, always responding to emails very quickly. When I retrieved my things I only had to give two weeks notice and was even refunded one day's rent which I had overpaid. Really thorough and pleasant service.

I take my car here for MOT. It's a wait in line to get it done, but a good local service. They also have a nice little local store that stocks a bit of most of the groceries that you might need.

Moving house can be a lot of hassle and pretty stressful. Using Cambridge Storage Ltd wasn't. We put a sizeable chunk of our possessions into storage in the weeks leading up to the move to reduce the amount of stuff that needed to be moved on the moving day. It was easy to book the storage and pick up the key, the facility and the storage unit itself were clean and tidy, and easy to use. Knowin...

The whole process of moving with Coxs was amazing. From the ease of getting a quote to the awesome hard work the crew put in on moving day I couldn't recommend them enough. They took all the stress out of moving and were so flexible on how things were done on the day, taking great care of all our belongings. Thank you so much for moving us into our new home!

Thorough and fair MOTs at a good price. Tests AWD vehicles properly with an accelerometer brake test rather than abusing differentials with the rollers like most places do. No appointments so queue up and wait or leave the car for the day.
