Bring some comfort to DIY projects with Self Storage

Splash out on Self Storage while Renovating, Redecorating or House Extensions

A change is as good as a rest but not so restful when it comes to home décor if your furniture, furnishings and belongings are at risk. If you are worried about paint spatters on the sofa or plaster dust in your electrical items, then opt for short term Self Storage as the ultimate coverall.

3 Reasons to consider Self Storage on a temporary basis for DIY projects

Packing things away means a decluttered work area which will save you or your decorators/builders having to constantly moving bulky items around to position ladders or complete rooms section by section.
Masking tape, dust blankets, paint sheets can only protect so much. Moving items off site means they are no longer at risk.
While it might be tempting to cut corners and move the entire contents of the room you’re working on into the next room, it means you’re effectively down two rooms during the project – the room that is being renovated and the cluttered room that is unliveable and makes you feel like you’re living on a building site.

A small investment in a Self Storage unit during home improvements or extensions will pay for itself in the long run by speeding up the project.

Ciarán Lotz House Contents Storage

I stored apartment contents here for a few months including clothes etc. Contents were just as I left them when picking up. Fantastic service if you need extra space. The facility is clean, dry, secure, rodent controlled and super simple to use with phone access to gates and electronic invoicing/payment. Also pickup/drop off by a shipper was simple, ample space for vans and trucks to enter Highly recommend!!

I found Staffords Self Storage units to be secure, and the facility very accessible, day or night. Well managed and extremely private. I would have no hesitation in recommending this facility. It was a lifesaver for me, and should I require to use the facilities again, in the future, I will definitely give you a call.
