Storage

[the-e-dealer]

Anyone know how much storage costs? say a 10 by 10 room for a year? and local.

I can rent you a 6 x 3.5 x 6.5ft space for ?65pcm. Minimum contract length 6 months. Monthly payments. Insurance ?10 pcm subject to contents value. Secure central location.

Only stuff I wont allow: illegal drugs/contraband, unlicensed firearms, cash in excess of ?5,000 and clown outfits....just trying to do my bit. Interested? Then PM me.

is that one of those bike storage units outside the station? ;-)

I can really recommend Henfield Self Storage (www.storage-units.co.uk/‎). Very reasonable rates and they don't pull the "you must take our (overpriced) insurance" and "buy our (overpriced) padlocks" scams. Plenty of on-line insurance people, though I used insurastore.com.

Closest Henfield is up near South Bermondsey station.

Watch out for the insurance. Perhaps phone in advance and ask about the insurance policy. My experience was that I was ripped off on insurance - I was asked how much everything was worth and made to take out their insurance, which was a policy that wasn't working in my favour. I didn't see that coming.

Our household insurance covers items in storage.....

Wont need insurqnce most of it is junk I diont want.

...and there you have it.

The self-storage business model is a lucrative one for three reasons:

1. With increased consumption and consumerism. People are accumulating more "stuff" than ever before.

2. Storage companies can build secure premises in sub-prime city locations. So cheap land and potential to dig down using 2-3 levels of otherwise unprofitable underground space.

3. There are high on-going subscription rates. Which means easy repeat revenue. Why? Because a human predilection for hoarding means most customers store junk in there, never confront chucking it out and forget about the monthly fee.

TED, I know you're a bit bonkers, but you need to throw your shit out. Freecycle is your friend, makes people happy and it postpones the journey to landfill.

You're most likely covered through your typical contents insurance, just check with your provider. If you don't need insurance, you should have the option to waive any fees.

If you're still looking, we offer containerised storage which is not easy access (72 hours notice required) but is about 50 percent cheaper, especially if you need storage for longer than their introductory offers. For a container size 8ft high, 5ft wide, 7ft deep, it's ?15pw/?65pm with no long term contract.

Always cheaper to chuck it but I know how hard it is!
