Moving In
What is the process of moving in?
We require you to complete and sign a storage agreement and return it to us along with a copy of your drivers license or passport. Payment for the first month in advance is needed. Once these are completed, we set you up with your own unique pin code for the security entrance gate and then you are ready to move in when it suits you.

No, you will need to organise that yourself. We recommend using a great local company called Lettuce Know Logistics for a reliable and professional service.
