Reviews
Used in overlay of a move. Spoke to Mel, friendly and quick responses. Met the next day and got shown around the different storage containers, signed papers and got handed key same day. Would definitely use again :)
Dreadful attitude…..so unhelpful…..I was only making a polite enquiry.
Good short term storage.
