Why do people use self storage?

How does self storage work ?
A Lovelady Mini Storage facility provides customers with their own individual space. Self Storage differs from traditional storage in that the owner of the goods is responsible for, and retains control over their goods after they have put them into storage. You secure your storage unit with your own lock, keep the key, and have access to your goods anytime you like. You can put extra items in, take items out, or move to a smaller or larger unit if you need to. You have complete flexibility. Car or boat storage is also available at our Alabaster location. Ask the Manager about this when you call for information.

What can be stored in my unit?

Furniture, books, files, camping equipment, anything from a few boxes to a full household. Items that do not meet safety requirements are not permitted such as hazardous or toxic materials.
