Reviews
We have rented 2 storage containers over the course of the last 4/5 years. The security of the site is first class and all procedures from the initial hire to the return of the deposit have bene dealt with very efficiently. We won't hesitate to use Hive again.
Great service. Fast response to enquiry, quickly received my unit which was clean, dry and secure. Security cameras all around site with no blind spots. Very professionally operated.
Great and secure place to store what you need, recently moved house and was waiting for our house to be completed. The staff at Hive couldn't help me enough, especially when i needed a second unit at short notice. No issues with security looked and felt very secure, they even do van hire so i didn't have to worry. Overall 5+ stars so well done and if i need to use them again I know how good the company are. Well done.
