Reviews
Great Units - clean and supplied with dehumidifier strips - have had 2 units now , secure access and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend
Excellent experience with Safe & Dry Storage! Communication was great from my initial enquiry right through to booking the container. Access is easy, and the containers themselves are dry, clean, and very accessible. I'd definitely recommend them for anyone needing storage local to the Poole area.
Safe & Dry saved the day when another local container storage company left me Ready, Steady, Stuck. I called Safe & Dry who not only gave me exactly what I needed but were so friendly and helpful and set the contract up with the minimum of fuss. They went out of their way to ensure i had a container just 3 days away by making additional calls to customers who were leaving that day to ensure a unit would be ready for me. The site is easily accessible and tidy and in a perfect location for me. Thanks to all at Safe and Dry - much appreciated.
