Flexibility is the order of the day at Van Hee

Feb 11 2008 by The Journal

THERE was a time, when storage was not a big problem. It did not top the list of our issues or concerns. But the changes in our society and the way we live our personal lives has changed all that.

The trend to move to smart town centre open plan office blocks or to run our businesses from the latest business parks has meant that there just is not the space available that there used to be to store all those files, or spare furniture, or stock. The lock-up garage is disappearing.

With the rising cost of land, and ultimately rentals, it is not surprising that there has also been a rise in the use of off-site storage facilities. Managements are having to consider storage as a separate function for the first time.

It is not just businesses either that take advantage of the self-storage facility. In our homes, fashion and
style favour the minimalist look. There’s no room for clutter. But we do not necessarily want to get rid of things.

Van Hee is one of the leading self-storage facilities based in Tyne and Wear. The firm has just completed the conversion of 40,000 square feet of warehousing space at their facilities in William Street, Felling, for self-storage access. And you can hire space for as short a period as one week to store a wide range of goods.

Flexibility is the order of the day. You can rent just as much space as it actually takes to store your particular goods or materials. That can be either a complete self-contained room, which start at 8ft by 5ft, or store in secure containers, cages or boxes.

You can store for long-term periods, or as little as one week, or in any way to get frequent, easy access. The amount of space rented can also vary over the lifetime of the arrangement as quantities and requirements move up and down.

The whole site is dry, clean, weatherproof and covered by state- of- the-art CCTV cameras so you can leave your goods and materials safely in the hands of the Van Hee experts. They have been in the business of carrying and moving goods for over 40 years so they know what they are talking about.

Access can be any time between normal business hours of 6am-7pm, and 7am-midday on a Saturday, and if you need access 24 hours a day, seven days a week, then that can be arranged.

Storage doesn’t have to be a problem. No matter how big or small your requirements are, check out the possibility of your own purpose planned off-site storage facility at Van Hee Self Storage.
