Life gets cluttered, doesn’t it? Whether you’re decluttering for a house sale, making a big move across town or just trying to reclaim your garage from a mountain of holiday decorations and old furniture, you’ve probably felt that similar sense of overwhelm.
The good news? You’re not alone. And even better – there’s a simple, secure solution that brings you something priceless: total peace of mind.
That’s the real benefit of self-storage units. It’s not just about finding a place to put your stuff; it’s about making space in your life, literally and metaphorically. But what makes a great self-storage experience? It all comes down to trust. Trusting that your belongings are safe, that the process will be smooth and that you’re partnering with a team who genuinely cares.
At Safeguard Storage, we get it. We’ve built our business on the belief that a New Zealand storage unit should feel like a secure extension of your home – a place where you can confidently store your most valued possessions, from family heirlooms to business inventory.
So, how do we make that happen? We’ve invested in top-tier security, dedicated onsite managers and customer service that’s second to none. Let’s take a look at why self-storage units from Safeguard Storage are the ultimate solution.
What Safeguard Does to Build a Foundation of Trust
When you choose one of our personal storage units, you’re not just getting a lock and key. You’re also getting a comprehensive security system, designed to protect your belongings from every angle.
We use a multi-layered approach to security, because we know that true peace of mind comes from knowing your valuables are protected by more than just a single gate.
For starters, you’ll find pin-code access gates at almost all of our locations. This means only authorised people can even enter our facility. But things don’t stop there. CCTV surveillance is standard across our branches, with some – like our New Plymouth facility – boasting over 30 cameras to ensure every corner is watched.
We’re talking 24/7 monitoring that provides you with constant reassurance. But the real magic happens when you take a look at our specific branches.
Beyond a Simple Lock at Bell Block
If you want to see our commitment to security in action, look no further than our Bell Block branch in New Plymouth. This facility is the ultimate example of what it means to go above and beyond for our customer’s peace of mind.
Imagine this: you’ve just moved your most cherished items into a storage unit. Wouldn’t it be great if you knew that the security was so tight, it resembled an impenetrable fortress? Well, that’s exactly what we’ve built at Bell Block.
Here’s a breakdown of the security measures that make this site stand out:
- Alarms on Every Unit: That’s right. Not just on the gate, but on every single unit. If your door is opened without your unique pin code, an alarm is triggered immediately. That’s next-level protection you won’t find everywhere.
- An Alarmed Electric Fence: Our perimeter fence isn’t just for show – it’s an active security measure that’s alarmed and monitored.
- Over 30 Cameras: Every inch of the site is under constant surveillance. The sheer volume of this CCTV network is hard to find at other self-storage businesses.
- Full Fire Alarm Systems: We think about more than just theft – our systems detect any issues early on.
- Pin Code Entry: Access to the facility is strictly controlled by a personal pin code. We know exactly who’s entered the facility and at what time.
The Bell Block branch is one of our newer sites and equipped with state-of-the-art security systems, designed to give you reassurance as you return back home. It’s why self-storage units at Safeguard are the smartest choice.
Why the Human Touch Matters On-Site
While our technology is impressive, what truly makes the Safeguard Storage experience is the people behind it. At many of our branches you’ll find a dedicated on-site manager who’s there to help and answer any questions you might have.
Take Keryn Chandler, our manager in Levin, for example. With 25 years of hospitality experience, she’s a pro at building rapport and putting customers at ease. First-time customers often worry about security, and Keryn alleviates those fears by explaining that the alarms are so loud, she can hear them from her house! She’s a friendly face and a trusted presence, and her commitment to security is a huge selling point.
Another example is Raj Kesha, the on-site manager at the Mangawhai branch. His approach is always in-line with the relaxed, casual nature of the township. It’s all about doing things at the pace of the customer – whether that’s sorting things with lightning speed, or patiently talking through everything until the customer feels totally confident.
The human element is what turns a good self-storage unit experience into a great one. It’s the reassurance of seeing a friendly face on-site, having someone to ask questions and knowing that there’s a real person who cares about the safety of your belongings.
More Than A Box – This is Storage Done Your Way
Whether you’re a family between homes, a business owner needing extra space or a car enthusiast looking for a secure spot for your prized vehicle, we’ve got a solution for you.
We offer a wide range of unit sizes and types, from drive-up units to internal warehousing units, to fit all your needs.
Our drive-up access units are super convenient for loading and unloading heavy items directly from your vehicle. Many of our facilities have truck-friendly driveways, which makes moving large loads a breeze, and some sites even offer a free moving van to help get your stuff to the facility. These are just some of the ways that we aim to make your storage experience as easy as possible.
We also offer specialised storage solutions. In Mangõnui, for instance, we specialise in helping holiday homeowners store their furniture while they rent out their properties. In Gisborne, our unique and purpose-built workshops with power and lighting are perfect for mechanics, caterers or anyone who needs a dedicated workspace.
Even in Hastings, business storage is a particularly popular choice due to the facility’s central location and large, drive-up units. All of these are great reasons for why self-storage units are a valuable asset.
