Your office space is valuable, which means there’s no need to be overwhelmed by excess files, with Bristol Self Storage.
Your storage unit is a perfect spot to secure and protect appliances, like your extra washer and dryer set or that old microwave from your college dorm room, while they’re not in use.
Clothing, including shoes, should be packed in airtight boxes or bins—you don’t want pests to chew through those Anthropologie sweaters you splurged on all those years ago. We also recommend going with climate-controlled storage to avoid damage from mold or mildew.
Always check with the staff at your storage facility if you have questions.
In general, though, there are a few major categories of items that are never allowed in storage.
Steer clear of wet items, like an umbrella—they’re breeding grounds for mold, mildew, and bacteria. Also, be cautious of items with strong smells—these can attract insects and rodents and might make your storage neighbors unhappy, too.
Don’t plan on storing meat, cereal, dairy products, produce, or any other type of food that can spoil. Even your dog’s kibble is a no-go.
Flammable items put your storage unit at risk of catching fire. If there’s a spike in temperature, combustible materials could explode. Here’s a full list of things to avoid:
Combustible liquids and hazardous chemicals aren’t allowed. Here’s the full list of these prohibited items that will get the boot:
This may seem obvious, but rubbish belongs in the dustbin. Trash attracts bugs and vermin—plus, it’ll stink up the place.
Plants can’t survive without daily sunshine and regular water; they also attract insects and other pests and therefore aren’t allowed in storage. Gardeners, you can stow away your shovels, pots, and other tools in your unit, just not your live plants.
Don’t have enough space in your current pad for your turtle terrarium or 75-gallon fish tank? Thinking of setting it up in your storage unit instead? Think again. For ethical reasons, you aren’t allowed to leave pets in storage.
We know your possessions are valuable. That’s why, at Bristol Self Storage we do everything we possibly can to make sure they’re safe and secure while in storage. But there are some things we just can’t guarantee to protect your goods against, such as fire and flood. For those events you need self storage insurance. We provide bespoke self storage insurance.
For example, if a customer didn’t defrost their freezer properly before placing it within a storage building, this might lead to water leaking into your storage room causing damage to your possessions. Unfortunately the majority of home insurance policies don’t cover your valuable possessions while they are in self storage units. And those that do, don’t cover specific storage perils. So we’ve come up with a policy that can be tailored exactly to meet your storage insurance needs.
In the past, customers have taken out their own insurance at the start of their storage, then not let it continue. This meant they couldn’t make a claim if the worst happened or have storage insurance to offer if their goods damaged someone else’s possessions. For everyone’s peace of mind we need to know that all customers are covered at all times – that’s why all customers must insure their goods while they are in our self storage units. It’s worth noting that many of our competitors take the same approach. Bristol Self Storage insurance has been specially designed for self storage and covers a wider range of potential perils than normal household insurance.
Our self storage insurance policy has a number of benefits over most household insurance policies. It will cover your goods against third party liability and just about everything else;
Because our storage unit insurance is designed specifically for items in self storage facilities, it doesn’t affect the ‘no claims’ on your home insurance or claims you might make on your home insurance in the future.
