Drive-up container storage
ISO steel containers you can drive right up to, at every yard. Dry, secure and month to month, with your own key.
A drive-up container is a steel shipping container you park right beside. Open the doors, unload straight from your car or van, and lock up with your own key. There are no corridors, lifts or long carries between you and your things.
People use them to store furniture while they move house, tools and stock for a trade, garden equipment, seasonal things and anything bulky they want out of the way. You have a container month to month, so you can keep one for a few weeks or for as long as you need.

Questions about container storage
Are the containers dry?
They are ISO standard steel shipping containers, built to stay dry, safe and secure.
To keep your things in good order, pack them dry, lift boxes and furniture off the floor on pallets if you can, and leave a little room for air to move. Our storage tips cover the rest.
Can I drive right up to my container?
Yes, that’s what drive-up means. Park alongside, open the doors and unload straight from your car or van.
If you’re bringing something large, call us to arrange your visit.
Can I get to my things at any time?
Yes. You get your own key and 24-hour access, so you can visit at any time of day or night. Just call us to arrange your visit.
What size container do I need?
It depends on what you’re storing. Our size guide matches your things to a size, or call us, tell us what you have and we’ll suggest one.
If you’re between two sizes, the bigger one is usually easier to use: you can reach everything without unpacking.
What can I keep in a container?
Furniture, boxes, tools, stock, equipment and most other household and business belongings.
A few things can’t be stored. If you’re unsure about anything, ask us before you bring it.
How secure are your yards?
Our floodlit, security-fenced yards are monitored by modern security systems, including CCTV 24 hours a day. You also get your own key to your own container.
Can I have things delivered to the yard?
Yes. We can accept deliveries on your behalf and put them into your container, so you don’t need to be there when they arrive.
Is there a long contract?
No. It’s month to month, with no long-term contract. When you’re ready to leave, you give us notice in writing.
Can I buy a container instead?
We also sell storage units. If you’d like to buy a container, talk to us.
