‘Stuff’ can be overwelming. But, with a little determination, you can get on top of it! Really, there are only three kinds of stuff to think about:
Stuff you use all the time and need easy access to: (keep it at home)
Stuff you don't need and should throw away : (take it to the tp/charity shop/sell it)
Stuff you don't use a lot but need to keep because it's valuable (e.g. ski or other sport equipment, seasonal clothing, garden furniture, books) or it has real sentimental value (stuff you're keeping for the next generation) ... (but it's really getting in your way)
- Are you pushed for space?
- Using the spare bedroom for your Home office or for overflow?
- Boxes all over the house and the attic bursting?
- Need more space – the new baby is on the way?
- You want to reclaim the garage – so you can use it as – guess what? – a garage?
- You are building a new extension for more space but you need a stop gap?
- Need the extra space and time for a really big de-clutter?
Once you have signed up and have obtained your License Agreement you’re ready to ‘move in’ and start using your Household Storage Unit. Our household storage units are perfect for a number of scenarios, including:
- Downsizing to a smaller house.
- Decluttering.
- Renting out your home.
- Travelling or moving abroad.
- Moving in with a partner.
- Redecorating or renovating your current property.
- Welcoming a new member of the family.
- Saying goodbye to a loved one and storing furniture or household items from their estate.
If you are looking for household storage, whatever the reason, Fort Locks can provide you with a tailored solution that is suited to your storage needs.
Convenient Household Storage
- Door to Door – When you rent a household storage unit at Fort Locks Self Storage, you can often park right in front of your unit. This means that you will be able to drive right up to the door, making loading and unloading much easier because you are not ‘double handling’ all your things. Should you need your household storage for heavier items such as furniture, this will all but eliminate the heavy lifting!
- 24/7 – Should your movements be influenced by long working hours, we offer access to your unit 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. This is the perfect option for those that would prefer to move their items during unsociable hours. If this sounds like something you’d benefit from, please enquire for details.
Household Storage Security
- Security – Your household storage unit is locked with your own personal padlock. Should your unit be filled with valuable or sentimental items which require a little extra security, we sell disk padlocks, and our storage units are fitted with lock boxes. To ensure an even greater level of security, our units are monitored every day of the week, during trading hours, by a member of staff on-site, and the fencing around our units is also fitted with measures that help to prevent theft. Whether you’re renting your unit for a short or long period of time, you can be safe in the knowledge that your valuables are secure with our household storage units.
- Your Key Only – Our household storage units are completely private to you. This means that you are the only key holder to your unit, helping to ensure the security of its contents, whether that’s furniture, sentimental items or the contents of your overflowing wardrobe!
- CCTV – We offer 24-hour CCTV across all of our units for your peace of mind. Store safely and securely at Fort Locks.
Simple Pricing
Our pricing is simple and affordable. You won’t find any secret or unknown costs in our quotes, meaning that you won’t be lumped with an extortionate bill. You can also access the unit as often as you wish for no additional charge. Should you need help with lifting heavier household items, we can also offer our clients a Fork Lift Service on request. Should you require our assistance, please let us know!
Listen to 30 seconds of pure magic…
Here’s why you should choose us…

We can absolutely recommend using the Fort Locks storage containers company. We recently stored the entire contents of... our house / garage and garden sheds with them whilst waiting for our house purchase to complete. The units are very secure, easy accessed, and both clean and dry.Also, we were very grateful for the professional and friendly service provided by Jeff, Nick & Annie. Everything {including the very welcome mugs of coffee} was 1st class and we would certainly use them again without hesitation.read more

Fort Locks goes beyond a simple self storage facility, as their staff provide a value added service that's second to... none. Back in November I'd not hired storage before, however due to business expansion we were in need of some room. Immediately the staff were happy to advise, constantly keeping an eye on what would be good value for me - not just good business for them.Fast forward three months, I consider Fort Locks to be an important extension of my business where they handle my inbound logistics with the same professionalism.Highly recommended !read more

Fort Locks came to my rescue when my house move got delayed on the day of sale. I contacted them right at the end of... the day and they were able to provide me with enough storage which ensured my house sale didn't fall through.The facility was clean and very secure. The removal team who were moving my things were very impressed and they said they'd seen a lot of storage places!The owner stayed late for our arrival and was so helpful to me when I arrived as i was very stressed by this point. A huge thank you to all at Fort Locks Storage.read more

We have used Fort Locks for over 2 years and will not go anywhere else should we need secure storage in the future. A... massive thank you to all the staff who have given great service, always with a smile and a cup of coffee (pre covid of course). A very secure and tidy facility with 24 hour access. Having left the padlock off of our unit, Jeff phoned me within a few minutes to let me know - fantastic! Needless to say we would strongly recommend using Fort Locks.read more

An exceptionally friendly service, with an ultra helpful team, the level of care and attention was second-to-none. ... After wanting some storage at short notice, the offer seemed good, so we took it, but the actual experience blew us away. For anyone needing domestic storage I'd say there's no need to look anywhere else. For any business needing commercial storage, I would recommend using this facility even if just to experience and learn from the customer service levels! If only more businesses trreated their customers like this. We all have a lot to learn. 24/7 access and a clean and tidy provision only add to the reasons why we wouldn't look anywhere else next time. So refreshing to meet a team with a 'can-do' attitude, rather than be presented with a list of 'can't dos' which is what we experienced when considering other options.read more

What a wonderful company! Such friendly and helpful staff. Great value for money. I used Fort Locks when moving house... and I was 100% confident that my stuff was safe and secure while in their facility. They even let the removal company in and out so that I didn't need to attend the site.I have no hesitation what so ever in highly recommending Fort Locks. Thank you Annie and Nick for all your help, you made moving a little less stressful.read more
