Frequently asked Questions

Do I need Insurance?

add

Insurance is a requirement for all goods in storage. Our affordable coverage starts at £5,000 for just £3.99 per week, ensuring your belongings are protected. Storage insurance covers household items and business equipment; however, vehicles are not covered under this insurance and should have their own separate coverage. Full details are available on request.

What type of lock do I need for a container?

add

We strongly recommend using a container padlock designed to fit into the container lock box to secure your container. This method is considered the most secure way to safeguard your belongings. We offer container padlocks, and they are available upon request.

What are your payment terms?

add

A £120 deposit is required for storage, along with one month's rent upon move-in. After that, payments will be monthly. We accept most major credit and debit cards (excluding AMEX) at move-in and recommend setting up a direct debit for ongoing payments.

What happens after I book?

add

Once you have reserved your storage on Explorage.com, you will receive an email from us confirming your details. You will also be able to access your reservation at any time from your Explorage.com dashboard, which you can login to.

The storage operator will also receive a similar email (and a call for good measure), and will then contact you directly to request any additional details they might need to complete your storage agreement, this often includes verifying your ID, confirming payment details, and signing the storage agreement. Once this is completed, you can move your things in :)

How soon can I move my things in?

add

Moving in to your storage unit is quick and easy, and the timing depends on the storage operator you choose.

To get started, simply click "Reserve" for the storage unit you want and choose a preferred "Move In" day from the available calendar. The calendar will indicate any days that are unavailable for moving in, such as Sundays or days that require prior notice.

Once you've made a reservation on Explorage.com, the storage operator will contact you via email to request any additional details needed to finalize your storage agreement. This may include verifying your ID and signing the agreement. Once the formalities are completed, you can usually move in right away.

Additionally, you can find information about the storage operator's office hours and the hours you can access your storage unit, which might be different.

If you have an urgent moving need or can't find suitable move-in dates on the calendar, feel free to reach out to us via call or message. We'll do our best to make arrangements with the storage operator on your behalf.
