They have their own compartments, to which you are given access to a 24 pin code system that enables you to enter the building at any time as well as a lock and a key. Depending on the number of belongings that you need to store, you will find that you can be given a bigger or a smaller area.

Storage company facilities have moving facilities such as cardboard boxes as well as crates. Most companies are aware that you will need either one or both, in order to help you physically shift the belongings into your office or your house. They also offer green eco-friendly services especially things like crates that are able to be used repeatedly and eventually recycled.

Often it is sent as a consignment or through major cargo, so you know that even if it gets there before you do, it is safe.
