Choosing the right storage company

You want to place some of your belongings in storage, but you are unsure of how to go about it.

This is where Greenings Removals come in! Choosing the right storage company may take some time when you need it for a certain event: either you’re moving house or want to de-clutter – you’ll want to know you’re leaving your possessions in good hands.

Your initial move will be to evaluate how much storage you are going to need. Bear in mind that temperature sensitive items will need a specialised storage unit with ‘climate-control’.

Next, look for storage facility’s with an appropriate security system for the extra safety of your belongings. Is it 24-hour surveillance? If you do choose to store valuable items, check whether you can take out insurance.

Take your time looking rather than opting for the storage facility that is closest to you. After you have narrowed it down to a handful of storage facilities you can then begin to look at customer reviews, although bear in mind that these are not concrete evidence of the service, just an indicator. Then visit the storage facilities and make your own judgement!

Ask about payment prior to choosing – will they need a deposit? When is the payment due? etc. Lastly, find out how flexible the contract is, for example, will there be an additional charge required if you wish to remove your good before the end of the agreement?
