The Challenge

When Kevin’s mum moved into his busy family home, he needed a sturdy and secure storage solution to hold the contents of the two rooms, which were being converted to accommodate the new houseguest.

The storage unit needed to be compact enough to fit in his garden, but big enough to hold large items of furniture whilst keeping them free from mould and damage.

  • Two rooms needed clearing to make space for a family member
  • Items like a sofa and desks needed to stay dry and secure
  • Storage had to fit neatly in the garden

The Solution

Thanks to the rapid delivery and high-spec furniture grade 8ft container, Kevin was able to make room for his mum without the stress of moving or parting with valuable items.

The unit offered a secure, dry, and convenient on-site solution – right in his garden – helping him protect everything from quality furniture to electronics. It’s a perfect example of how we provide flexible, family-friendly storage that fits your life, not the other way around.

Kevin’s Experience

When my mum moved in with us, we had to empty two of our fullest rooms at home.

Converting the rooms had a big knock-on effect on what we could keep. While we figured out a long-term plan, we needed somewhere to store things - a sofa, desks, you name it.

I was really impressed when they delivered the unit. I was wondering how difficult it would be to get it in the garden.

Donk. Straight over the fencing and the hedges. No need to open up the gates or move all the cars. It fits in the garden perfectly.

The last thing I wanted was a mouldy sofa, or my good quality desks and furniture getting damp. The spray foam insulation has done a brilliant job of keeping everything dry.

It’s been ideal, you know. Something that size - 8ft doesn’t seem too big, but you can get a surprising amount in there.

If you’ve got any sort of garden or outdoor space and need extra storage, I would really recommend Storage on Site.
