Storage in Wokingham
If you have no set date to move into your new property and need your items kept safe until you are ready, our 40,000-square-foot storage facility is available for both long and short-term use. Suitable for household and business items, you can choose a storage option to suit your plans and budget. Container storage is ideal if you are keeping items stored for a longer period and don’t require frequent access to them, whilst our self-storage option is more suited to those requiring a short-term stay or have a smaller number of items needing to be stored.
With CCTV and security alarms helping keep your items secure, you can trust Britannia Sandersteads to look after your belongings for as long as necessary, and if you require access at any time, whether that be to add more items or take some away, our 24/7 access means you can always get to your goods.
