I had a fantastic experience at Safestore Bounds Green. From the moment I walked in, the team especially Liam and Tamera were exceptionally helpful, friendly, and professional. They clearly explained all my storage options and took the time to show me different sized units so I could choose what suited me best. Their efficiency and approachable manner made the whole process smooth and stress-free. Excellent value for money, and I would highly recommend this location to anyone looking for secure and convenient storage. Thanks again to Liam and Tamara for the outstanding service!

I recently took out a storage unit with…

I recently took out a storage unit with Safestore on short notice. Having previously worked at a storage company myself, I’m familiar with how these businesses operate and what level of service customers should reasonably expect.

A few weeks after moving in, I had a change of employment which meant my pay date also changed. I contacted Safestore to explain that I would be unable to make payment on my account, which was just over two weeks overdue, but that I would be settling the balance within five days. During this call, I also explained that I urgently needed to access my unit to retrieve my son’s red health book for his GP appointment the following day.

Despite explaining the situation clearly, I was refused access to my unit. The staff member stated that she would need to contact the regional manager for permission which, based on my experience in the storage industry, is unnecessary, as discretion for such matters can typically be exercised at store level. The lack of flexibility and understanding was extremely disappointing, especially given that I was transparent about the situation and had already committed to making payment.

Additionally, the pricing is misleading. While they advertise the first month as “free,” the rates increase significantly afterwards, making the overall cost far higher than expected.

Overall, my experience with Safestore has been frustrating and unprofessional. The staff were unhelpful and unwilling to accommodate a reasonable request under genuine circumstances. I would not recommend this company, particularly if you’re looking for fair pricing and compassionate customer service there are definitely better options in the area absolutely appalling

Took great care from the moment your items were in their care.
Staff were amazing. They were friendly, understanding and extremely flexible when I ask to pay the fee after payday at the end of the month instead of in the middle. No question or explanation was too much trouble. Would totally useless again.
