Yes. All customers require contents protection for their stored goods throughout their time in our self storage facility.

Our Self Storage Agreement requires you to either: accept our contents protection cover, or arrange insurance at your own expense.

For our Contents Protection, we charge based on the Maximum Replacement Value of your stored items.

We recommend you take out our competitively priced contents protection cover in the first instance, even if you wish to arrange your own policy or are unsure if you already have cover. This ensures your goods are protected, and we will refund you the Goods Protection charges in full once proof of cover is supplied within 14 days of your move-in.

Please refer to our Contents Protection page for more information. Contents Protection

We must understand the total value of all goods stored with us, even if you arrange insurance elsewhere. It is, therefore, a requirement for all customers to declare a suitable Maximum Replacement Value and to ensure it remains adequate for the storage period.

Your Maximum Replacement Value must represent the total current cost of replacing all stored property as new, except the following items where the replacement cost is calculated differently:

• household linen and clothing, motorcars, motorbikes, boats, caravans, motorhomes and any other motorised vehicle, where the Replacement Value allows for the age, quality, degree of use, existing damage and consequent market value;
• any goods which cannot be purchased new (such as antiques or works of art, for example), where the replacement value shall be the current market value; and
• documents, where the Replacement Value shall be calculated as the physical cost of replacing the documents and/or cost of reprinting, re-issue and/or reconstitution, but excluding the value of the information contained in the documents

Smart Access: Once you have booked your unit online you can enter the facility and your unit using just your mobile phone. Before your move in date, you will receive a text message to your mobile phone with instructions on how to set this up. It will require the download of a Smart Security App from either the Apple or Android app stores. Downloading the app and gaining access is simple, but if you are in any doubt we recommend moving in during our office hours, where we can be reached on the phone for any queries.
Please let us know if you don’t have a ‘smart’ phone as we can supply you with a fob instead.
