Space and accessibility

Before you even start looking into self-storage units, you have to know what you want to store. This sounds obvious, but you would be surprised how many people forget about those one or two items and quickly find they run out of space in their unit. Make sure that the unit you choose has enough space for your items and that the unit is easily accessible for what you want to store, you don’t want to be trying to carry heavy, bulky furniture upstairs or down narrow corridors if you can help it.

Location

When choosing a self-storage facility like Store That East London, it is vitally important to factor in the location of the site. If you require continuous access to your unit throughout the year you don’t want to be travelling through central London to get there. Of course, the prices of the units will also go up and down depending on the location of the site, so try and find a balance that fits for you.
