Shipping containers: a secure and dependable storage solution

A shipping container is a robust and economical way to keep your belongings safe. These sealed, ventilated units provide optimal protection against humidity, pests and dust, while also offering a high level of security against theft.

Thanks to their watertight design and reinforced structure, shipping containers are ideal for long-term storage, as well as for professional equipment or archives.

The advantages of a shipping container versus traditional self-storage

Choosing shipping-container storage offers many benefits compared with standard self-storage:

• Enhanced security: each container is individually closed and locked, protecting your goods against theft and intrusions
• Protection for your belongings: airtight and weather-resistant, the container safeguards your personal effects from humidity, dust and pests
• Optimised cost: for large volumes or extended periods, renting a shipping container is often more economical than traditional self-storage
• Practical during a move: this secure storage solution helps you avoid a double move while reducing handling costs. Your belongings remain safe until the day you transfer them to your new home
• Flexibility: rental periods are flexible and can range from a few days to several years

When should you opt for shipping-container storage?

Shipping-container storage suits many situations. It’s ideal during a move, to store your belongings safely while you wait to move into your new home. It’s also useful during renovation work, protecting furniture or equipment while the house is being refurbished. Finally, a shipping container is perfect for long-term storage if you lack space at home or wish to keep certain items in a secure, stable environment.
