During a move, you’re pretty much handing over 100% trust to the mover you’ve hired, so you want to be sure your belongings are safe. Finding the best storage option is the same as hiring a removalist, in that, you get what you pay for. Cheap often means they cut costs to maintain budgets, which could range from no personal security onsite to storage containers that are exposed to the elements, without any climate control.
Look for a storage facility that provides full security. Do they have CCTV cameras on the premises? What is their degree of accessibility? Do they have 24-hour access at their warehouse? Are they open on weekends and holidays? Do they have manned storage facilities?

The cost of a storage unit varies, and it usually depends on the number of items you wish to store as well as the duration of time you want your belongings stored.
