FAQs

Common questions

Can’t see yours? Call or WhatsApp and ask us directly.

Are my things insured?

Yes. Both our Folkestone and Dover sites are fully insured.

Why a container rather than crates?

A container at Dover is yours alone and you can get to it whenever you like, which suits business stock and anything you want in and out. Crates are packed, sealed and stored for you at Folkestone, which suits a move where you want everything gone until the new house is ready.

Is there a minimum term or notice period?

Storage is paid monthly in advance by bank transfer. You can stay for one month or longer. If you leave during a paid month, unused days are not refunded.

Can you collect my things for me?

Yes. Our movers can pack, load and bring everything to the yard for you. Or drive in at Dover and load it yourself.

What can’t I store?

Nothing hazardous. No food, no fuel and nothing flammable. [Full list to follow from Jamie’s terms]

Will my things stay dry?

Yes. Every container is steel and weatherproof.

How do I pay?

By bank transfer only, with one month paid in advance.
