[Photography and online PR for Store & Secure self-storage]

We love start-up businesses… the whole buzz and passion of an entrepreneur with a new idea and the whole market entry thing…

So we bend over backwards to help when they come to us for some self-storage and – after working with several start-ups over the last few years – we can help you in a handful of ways.

To start with, self-storage here for your stock, tools and goods is low-cost, whether you’re a company that sells thousands of products each day or a casual trader running a part-time business from the spare room. And it’s easy-in, easy-out, with easy terms and no long, fixed terms. 

That’s good, isn’t it? Well there’s more…

• You can have an optional mailbox for a Bournemouth postal address… read more

New coat for self-store floor

[Online PR for Store & Secure self-storage]

The floor of our self-storage facility gets a lot of wear and tear with busy customers moving their stuff in and out of nearly 600 rooms… so it’s time for a new coat of floor paint!

It took a bit of time to paint the 15 corridors, four stairwells and three loading bays which service our 48,000 sq ft of storage space, but now it all looks spick and span.

Keeping our facility clean and tidy is pretty important to us and certainly helped us win our recent national and international awards. It’s also an often-cited reason when customers move to us from other storage facilities.

Our current project to build a £19,000 Child Development Unit has received a boost with a much-welcome grant of £9,450 – so we’re halfway to providing even greater support to the children of Namatala and their families!

The new unit will enhance the extra services that Child of Hope provides – our welfare, healthcare and Income Generating Activity teams. It will bring the three teams closer together to work collaboratively and draw together the various strands of our support structure and improve our service.

To read more about our proposed unit, please click here. This is something that will help many of the poorest and most vulnerable children and families in the Namatala slum – if you would like to help us, please make a donation. 

Doubling up on mailboxes

Demand is high from small businesses and individuals wanting a postal box, so we are doubling the number of our rental mailboxes… still for just £5 a week!

With no fixed term you can rent one for as long or as short as you like and it will be available seven days a week! Here’s when they are useful…

MOVING HOME OR OFFICE: ensure all your mail and deliveries arrive where you expect them!

RUN AN ONLINE BUSINESS, OR WORK FROM HOME: a mailbox gives you a commercial address to help your business image.

LIVING IN SHARED ACCOMMODATION: don’t risk mail and packages getting stolen – have them sent to your mailbox and collect when convenient to you.

BUYING GOODS ONLINE: you can have your purchases delivered to your mailbox address and we’ll sign for your deliveries, so you don’t have to hang around waiting for your deliveries.

OUT OF THE OFFICE A LOT: don’t worry about packages being returned or left on your doorstep. We’ll receive your deliveries from the Royal Mail or carrier, and hold them for you to collect when you’re ready.

LIVING ABROAD… but want to keep a UK address. We will receive your post and even forward it to you.

TEMPORARY ADDRESS: we can provide you with a more permanent base in for your important mail and forward mail to you as required.
Call us today on 01202 520 220 if you’d like to discuss how a mailbox could work for you.
