FAQs

Will my stored items be safe and secure?
Yes, absolutely. Our steel storage units provide excellent durability and protection. You will be the only key holder to your container, and access to our site is via entry tag. Our site is protected by CCTV and has security lighting and perimeter fencing.

Do I have to notify you when I want to get to my stuff?
No. Once you have your licence agreement/contract you can come and go as you wish. You can access your goods at any time of day or night 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Some companies charge you an access fee each time you want to visit your storage unit – but at Sentry Self Storage you may visit as often as you choose – FREE of charge. We have no hidden costs.

Do you offer a removal/collection service?
No, this is a self-­storage facility only and we do not collect or deliver goods for you. However we can recommend some off the many removal companies that use our facility.

What happens if I find I need more or less space?
No problem at all. Many of our customers (especially business customers) might find that their storage requirements are seasonal or based upon their own warehouse capacity etc. You can use our space guide to calculate how much space you might require. If you need advice or help with planning your storage solutions just give us a call.
