Short term and long term personal storage

With Blue Bear you can store for as little or as long as you like! Whether you need to store your personal belongings for a few days* while you move house or for a few months while you’re away travelling, it’s no problem.

Reasons to use our short term personal storage solutions:

• Moving house and you need somewhere to store your treasured belongings 
• Renovating your home and looking for a safe haven for your sofas, tables, chairs and beds outside of the splash zone
• Downsizing and looking to declutter your current home so it’s ready for house viewings

The cost of our short-term personal storage depends on the location and size of the unit you choose. Click on the location that suits you best to find pricing information and unit sizing. We do not charge a deposit for units using a padlock, but a deposit is required for units with a standard door where Blue Bear Self Storage supplies a key.

• Want to keep some of your furniture safe and secure while renting or hosting your home
• Renting while you wait for your new house build to be completed
• Clearing out the home of a loved one who has passed away and want to keep some belongings as mementos
• Building your own forever home and won’t be able to live in the house while the work is being done
• Or maybe you just want more space!

Customer Goods Protection for personal storage

At Blue Bear Self Storage, we understand how important your belongings are to you. That’s why we offer StoreProtect, a comprehensive protection plan designed to safeguard your items while they’re in storage – providing an alternative to traditional self-storage insurance. This plan ensures that, should the unexpected happen, your belongings are covered up to their full replacement value – provided you’ve accurately declared their worth.

Here’s why it’s the best choice for protecting your goods:

• Continuous Coverage: Once you opt-in, StoreProtect remains active throughout your entire storage period, giving you peace of mind from start to finish.
• No Excess Fees: Unlike traditional insurance, StoreProtect has no excess fees, meaning you won’t have to pay out of pocket if your items are lost or damaged.
• Preserve Your No-Claims Discount: Any claims made under our StoreProtect programme won’t affect your household or business insurance no-claims discount, helping you avoid premium increases.
• Vermin Protection: Unlike many other insurance policies, our StoreProtect covers damage caused by vermin, which is typically excluded in other policies.
