Domestic Storage Facilities in Thanet, East Kent
Ideal storage conditions
Considerable expense has been made insulating our containers against extremes in heat and preventing condensation. Both of which can damage stored items.
The containers are lined with insulation board and protected with 9mm of plywood for added protection.
Note: Moisture bought into the container can cause mould, using a dehumidifier can eliminate this risk. If in doubt a dehumidifier can be used or hired (ask for electric our option).
Sturdy walkways and stairs
Moveable stairs can be positioned alongside any container. We've ensured there is no gap between the stairs and the walkway, which is wide enough to open the container doors fully.
High-tech security
Our site is surrounded by steel fencing, and CCTV recordings are enhanced with flood-lighting. Out-of-hours access is by key at the front gate, an electronic pass to disable the alarm, and then a key to your container. The high-res CCTV system records 24/7.
Easy access at upper level
Wide walkways allow the container doors to open fully, and the sturdy railings are designed to be opened outside every container for direct fork-lift access.
Unload from truck to cage
Available on request, our forklift with a special large cage can load directly from your truck to your container, saving time and lifting.
Load from cage to container
Outside each container are walkway gates that allow the loaded cage to be taken directly to the container entrance.
More room than you might think
Each container is approximately 6m long, 2.44m wide, and 2.59m high. As a rough guide, one container can accommodate the normal contents of a three-bedroomed house.
Electricity and light
Your container can be connected to the electricity supply for £10 +VAT per month plus usage at the going commercial rate. This will give you internal lighting and the option to run a heater, dehumidifier or battery charger etc.
Heaters and dehumidifiers
Heaters and dehumidifiers can be hired from us or purchased as required. Ideally dehumidifier reservoirs should have a piped drain connection to a larger tank, eliminating the need to open the container to empty them.
