You would be surprised at the number of times that self storage is mentioned in movies, although sometimes for dubious reasons! It is talked about in the hugely popular US crime drama 'Breaking Bad', and the film about a female serial killer 'Monster'. Horror blockbuster 'Silence of the Lambs' involved the discovery of a human head in a jar of formaldehyde within a storage unit. Luckily we've not come across anything like that....yet!

Our self storage units are clean and well managed, so why not pop along to one of our facilities to see what's on offer? https://www.newcastle-self-storage.com/units-to-let-coast-business-park/

As most of us know, decluttering is extremely difficult! Parting with those items that were loved at one time, but now take up valuable space in our homes or gardens. A typical scenario for many is to decide on a major clear out, and empty all the shelves in a cupboard, only to put just about all of it back. It's very frustrating. It all seems so final, what if you get rid of something then regret it later?
A great option here is to rent a self storage unit for a time, then you can relax and make decisions at leisure. Once the items are out of sight, you may realise you don't actually want them any more, so it'll be easier to sell, donate or throw them. We have a range of units and containers in the Newcastle area to suit every need, give us a call on 0191 406 6333.

Do you know that many people use self storage units to conceal gifts in the run up to Christmas? It's always a problem hiding those exciting packages away from eager eyes, and if there are several sets of eyes you have no chance. That's why many people use our temporary storage, so that the element of surprise is not spoilt.
How for instance do you hide a wrapped child's bike? On top of a wardrobe? In a cupboard? Behind the sofa? Why not keep all of the kids gifts in a self storage unit, then after Christmas you can store the Christmas tree 'til next year! https://www.newcastle-self-storage.com/articles/self-storage-units-containers-at-blaydon-killingworth-coast-tyne-wear/

People often have the wrong idea about self storage, thinking it's not for them, but the truth is everybody can benefit from time to time. One misconception many have, is that this form of storage is just for hoarders who are unwilling or unable to declutter. It's true most of us these days are guilty of buying more than we need, then avoiding getting rid of things.
Studies show that in just one year women buy half of their weight in clothes, and parents spend around £650 on toys for their pre-schoolers. Apparently Londoners pay out around £5,800 per year on decorating and refurnishing their homes. This means that self storage can offer a handy temporary solution, and it's more sustainable, as not as much gets thrown away! https://www.newcastle-self-storage.com/articles/self-storage-from-rags-to-riches/

With such changeable weather year round, we need somewhere to store our seasonal clothing. At this time of year we are putting away our swimsuits, holiday clothes and outdoor toys, and donning thicker sweaters, boots and jackets etc. Multiply this for a family of four for instance, and that's a lot of stored seasonal clothing, bedding, soft furnishings etc.
If you want to store your clothes for a period of time, make sure they are clean, dry and in good condition. Throw away or donate clothes etc that you have not worn or used in over a year, or those that are damaged beyond repair. Protect delicate items in boxes, and use labels for easy and fast reference. Also make sure you find a reputable self storage company for your treasured belongings, like Newcastle Self Storage. https://www.newcastle-self-storage.com/units-to-let-coast-business-park/

Some of the most common reasons that people use self storage are:
Relocating – when moving home or office you are likely to need somewhere to store your things should there be a hitch!
Business storage – many people work from home which can result in a lot of clutter that can interfere with daily home life.
Home improvement – Furniture, appliances and other items need to be protected when work is being done on the home.
House clearance – sometimes we need to clear belongings, after a divorce or death for instance, self storage is extremely useful in these situations.
There are lots more reasons for the popularity of self storage units and containers, could you make use of one?

Self storage is perfect for builders and tradespeople, why? Because sadly these are the people who often suffer from burglaries. Where to store valuable tools and equipment is an age old problem for many in the industry. Vans are frequently the convenient answer, but not the preferred one. Thefts from vans represent a massive percentage of crime in the UK, as opportunists gain from the lack of an alternative. Many builders etc need to be up and out when working on a project, and that doesn't allow for time hauling tools in and out of the house or shed. It's tempting to leave them in the van overnight and hope for the best.
Tools are a favourite of thieves and figures show that 67% of van break-ins result in tools being stolen. This is not only extremely costly for the van owners, but can jeopardise their relationship with their clients due to project delays. Depressingly, only 1% of the tools stolen are ever recovered. Self storage units are a great option for the more expensive tools, with handy 24/7 access.

Our previous post mentioned how the film industry uses self storage units for storage of props lighting etc. However you may not realise how often storage units are actually part of the plot in many movies! James Bond stored an Aston Martin in one, and in hit series 'Breaking Bad', hoards of cash from a lucrative drugs empire was kept in a storage container. In Silence of the Lambs, Hannibal Lector had filled a storage unit with....well, we'd rather not know! And who could forget the moment Del and Rodders from Only Fools and Horses discovered a priceless watch in a self storage unit? What will you keep in yours? https://www.newcastle-self-storage.com/reviews/

Apparently over 200 movies were shot in various parts of the UK in 2021 amounting to £1.55bn spent. Only nine of these were Hollywood blockbusters that took £1bn of that amount, among these were The Batman, Aquaman 2 and The Marvels. The UK film and TV industry combined has well and truly bounced back from Covid with a record £5.6bn overall spend. The North East’s film and TV industry is set to receive a cash injection of £11m as councils and mayors aim to unlock talent. The BBC have also pledged £25m for the area which will help boost productions and create exciting opportunities. Self storage is an important and frequently used facility for the industry. Secure storage of valuable lighting, sets, props, costumes and other equipment is essential so we are going to be very busy! https://www.newcastle-self-storage.com/contact/ #6

We all know that storage containers are ideal ways to store the stuff we have no room for. However, more and more frequently you will probably notice their new role in some of the trendier parts of town. These metal structures are increasingly used to form bars, clubs and other popular entertainment venues. They have just the right feel of raw urban chic, and are usually fitted with mood lighting, sound systems etc. For now though, Newcastle Self Storage will stick to safely looking after your things! https://www.newcastle-self-storage.com/units-to-let-silverlink/
