General

The average lock-up garage measures about 128 sq ft (16ft x 8ft) and renting an equivalent space in a conventional self-storage warehouse could cost up to £150 per month.

Lock-up garages are therefore an ideal economic self-storage facility, whether this be for cars, vans or motorbikes or for storage. If used for storage it is always advisable for items to be placed off the ground and on pallets, not stacked against hard walls to allow ventilation and items should be sheeted with polythene or similar for protection..
