We own all our sites, so obviously our overheads are lower. Because people store and then visit very infrequently our sites are not manned constantly. We have invested heavily in a secure computer controlled access system that we monitor remotely.

Either phone, email or arrange an appointment to visit your local store. Call our friendly helpful team and we’ll make sure you get the space you need – call us on 0800 849 6484.
Our standard sizes range from 25 to 350 square feet and are up to 10 feet high (all dimensions are approximate). The most popular size is 75sq.ft which will fit the contents of a 1-2 bed house.
All our stores are monitored by security cameras placed in strategic locations. You are the only one with access to your unit, which is locked with your padlock and you keep the only keys. You use a personal electronic access code to access the premises.
You may purchase a new, sealed lock at MyLockup self-storage. No one else has the key to that lock – just you. Your personal MyLockup lock can be re-used the next time you use a MyLockup self-storage or to secure your garden shed when you no longer need storage!
Indoor units are protected from the elements and have broad hallways. Outdoor units are usually on one level and offer the convenience of drive-up access. In some of our stores we offer Drive-Up units, these have roller door access direct from the outside of the building for your convenience.
No. Many storage competitors use ex-shipping containers stored in yards. Shipping containers that fail to meet the insurance requirements of shipping are sold off as ex-shipping containers – in other words, the insurers do not consider that they give adequate protection to the goods in transit. Would your goods be adequately protected?
They also have a tendency to attract condensation as they are stored outside causing your goods to get damp and musty as they have no ventilation. Some companies even offer desiccants to keep your goods dry whilst in containers!
These are small (about 35sq.ft) and often stacked up to 4 high are constantly moved around by forklifts, meaning risk of breakage is high and making highly inconvenient when you need to get something out of your unit, as you have to book an appointment and pay a fee for access. They are a cheap option, typically offered by removal companies. We don’t offer this as we feel it does not reach our high standards.
At MyLockup self-storage, you have free access 7 days a week. The extended hours of your store may vary so check the location page of your chosen store.
There is a 1 month minimum rental period, but you can store for as little as one day or as long as you like, there is no maximum rental period. Contracts are automatically renewed on a monthly basis. We require 2 weeks notice to vacate if the date is not specified at the time of occupation.
Our rental contracts are rolling month-to-month agreements; no long-term lease is required. However we offer pre-payment discounts for customers looking for long-term storage. Please discuss with the MyLockup store manager for more information.
Yes please, just 2 weeks prior to the actual move out date. Notice must be given in writing – either by email, post or using this online form.
When you rent from MyLockup self storage, you can allow access for other people you specify (or restrict access only to yourself).
As your requirements change, you are welcome to move to another room at any time with no penalties. That is one of the main benefits of self storage

Most certainly, insurance is compulsory unless you can provide proof of cover for third party and also your own goods.

You will need to ensure notice is received at least 2 weeks in advance of your actual move out date. Notice must be given in writing – either by email, post, fax or in-store. The notice must contain your name, your unit number and the date your notice is given. On completion of your move out, a bank transfer refund will be processed within 20 days for any deposits and unused rental payments that are due to be returned.
Initial payment can be made by credit or debit card. Ongoing payments are taken by our recurring card payment facility with Paysafe.
We are able to accept cash, debit cards, Mastercard and Visa credit cards. Unfortunately, we are unable to accept American Express cards.
We no longer ask for a deposit equal to one months rental – but all customers need to pay a refundable deposit for their alarm key fob. This is your digital finger print and allows you access to our sites when they are unmanned.
We are a small family company and what you see is what you get. No special offers such as “one month free” followed by exorbitant rates thereafter.
We aim to please in every case, if you have any thoughts or criticisms however good or bad, please send them to me, Kevin,
