If
you are in any doubt, then give
us a call and we will assist you.
Alternatively,
if you using a removal company to transport your goods, they
will know how much space you require for domestic storage, as they have had to
assess how much lorry space they need to allocate to you.
Please
be aware that a removal company that quotes for storage is
very often using a facility such as ours.
In
many cases you will be able to save
money by separating your removal from your
storage, and paying for storage directly to the storage company.
The
longer you intend to store your goods, the more you will save.
Archiving From
an archiving perspective, the size of the archive boxes becomes
paramount.
If
you can furnish us with the box sizes we can work out the
storage requirements for you.
Please
remember that boxes should be full but not overfull, since
they will be stacked on shelving no more than 2 deep.
