The 4 Factors To Consider When Choosing Self-Storage In Sydney
Everyday across Sydney, families, businesses and individuals are buying self-storage space for their excess belongings. Many families and businesses alike are choosing to downsize their living space in order to be closer to the CBD and because of this need secure spaces available for their possessions that just can’t fit in their new home or office.
If you are considering opening up a self-storage space in Sydney, be sure to tick all the boxes when looking for the right service. By keeping an eye out for these important factors, you can have peace of mind about the safety of your items and avoid getting ripped off.
Climate Controlled Storage Units
Whether you are storing anything from furniture to wine, it’s vital that you find a storage space that isn’t affected by external influences, especially the weather. Water damage can seriously damage personal belongings, especially if they are hand crafted, where overheating can spoil a cellar of collector wine. Be sure to find a storage service that will openly discuss how they regulate the temperature of their units and how they will eliminate the impact of humidity in your unit.
This is especially important for long term storage as the long term change of temperature can dramatically affect your possessions, especially your wine collection and antique furniture, which are both extremely sensitive to the weather in their own right.
Insuring Your Storage Contents
Here at Palmers, we offer the option for insurance on all contents and we believe it’s a very important option to have, especially if you are storing expensive or rare items that you wish to take extra care of. Along with 24/7 CCTV surveillance, we pride ourselves in our insurance policies available that offer an extra sense of security and peace of mind for our customers who choose to store items that mean a lot to them with us.
Packing Your Storage Unit
One of the biggest hurdles when it comes to self-storage is the correct packing of the unit. Many people are unable to move and carry large items where others worry about dropping or damaging delicate items that need extra care. For this reason, we offer packing services for those who wish to save themselves from putting their body through the stress and would rather leave it to the professionals.
Not only can we move the heavy stuff for you, we also know every storage unit like the back of our hands and can help you get the most out of your storage space as possible, while making your belongings easily accessible for when you require them.
Mobile Storage Solutions
One of our more popular storage solutions, which we believe is something that benefits all of those in need for self-storage, is our mobile option. This is where we deliver a container to your home upon request and then pick it up when you have packed it with your belongings. Alternatively we can pack your entire container for you, or just the heavier items which need more care depending on your preference. Mobile storage is also popular for those who are downsizing in Sydney as it offers a 2 in 1 solution for moving home and keeping excess items in storage without having to seek multiple services, saving both time and money while keeping your move as stress free as possible.
While these are the 4 factors that we pride ourselves in, and consider absolute necessities when it comes to self-storage services, we are still evolving every day to make storing and moving your belongings as stress free as possible. Whether you are storing furniture, documents, wine or clothes, our fully insured, secure and weather proof storage units are ideal for long or short term storage with easy access and affordable rates.
