You may have seen us in the news over the last few days as we announced that building work has started on our new self storage facility in Harrogate. Media outlets like the BusinessDesk.com and Yorkshire Business Insider covered the story, revealing we’ve invested £1 million so we can provide even more facilities to the people of the famous spa town.

We already have our existing McCarthy’s Storage World on Ripon Road, which will remain unchanged, but now we will be adding an additional self storage centre behind that one.

Offering storage facilities for both individuals and businesses, the new building will offer an initial 9,000 square foot of storage space, meaning we will effectively have 50 % more space. It is hoped the facility will be completed and ready to open in May, and that we’ll be creating three new jobs.

The current space has been operating at almost 100 per cent capacity for some time now, with strong demand from individuals, looking to clear space at home or seeking temporary storage while they move home, but we’ve also seen a dramatic increase in business customers. Self storage can be particularly useful for SMEs, providing very flexible workspace at affordable prices. If you have varying levels of stock, are an online business or are hesitant to commit to larger commercial premises, it can be the ideal solution. It’s also useful for businesses which need off-site space for archive storage.

So we look forward to welcoming lots of new customers to Harrogate soon – and feel free to give us a call for a chat about your requirements ahead of the building opening and we’ll see what we can do!
