Which size do you need?
Every unit at Gillingham Storage is a ground-floor container. Units run from 20 sq ft up to a 20-foot, 160 sq ft container (20, 40, 50, 80 and 160 sq ft). Here is what each size holds in plain words, so you can pick one before you book.
The sizes
20 sq ft: 4 ft wide by 5 ft deep, 9 ft 6 in high
40 sq ft: 5 ft wide by 8 ft deep, 9 ft 6 in high
50 sq ft: 6 ft 8 in wide by 8 ft deep, 6 ft 8 in high
80 sq ft: 10 ft wide by 8 ft deep, 9 ft 6 in high
160 sq ft: 8 ft wide by 20 ft deep, 8 ft 6 in high
What fits in each
As a rule of thumb, 40 sq ft takes the contents of a studio flat, 80 sq ft a two-bedroom flat, and 160 sq ft a three- or four-bedroom house or a small business’s stock and equipment. A 160 sq ft container is 20 feet long, so a van-load of furniture goes in with a walkway down the middle; an 80 sq ft unit takes a two-bedroom flat stacked to the roof; a 40 sq ft unit is the boxes, a wardrobe and a bike.
Between sizes?
Take the smaller one. There is no long-term contract, so you can move up when a bigger unit is free, and you only ever pay for the space you are using.
Live availability and the price for every size are on the home page; the price you see there is the price you pay, with 50% off your first four weeks.
How high are the units?
The heights are listed above for each size; most containers are 8 ft 6 in or 9 ft 6 in inside, so wardrobes and mattresses stand upright.
Can I change size later?
Yes. Give us a call and, subject to availability, you move to the next size up or down; there is no long-term contract holding you to the first choice.
Can I drive up to the unit?
Every unit is ground floor and drive-up. The electric gate opens only to your registered phone, 24 hours a day; there is 24-hour live-monitored CCTV and dusk-to-dawn security lighting.
