Is container storage suitable for my short-term needs during a renovation?
Sunshine Self Storage, located in Albion. Drive-up 10ft, 20ft and 40ft containers, open 5am to 9pm, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.
Yes, and renovations are one of the most common reasons people store with Sunshine Self Storage in Albion. Pull the furniture out, let the trades get on with it, and bring everything back when the dust settles.
Our minimum stay is three months, paid when you sign up. That suits most renovations, which have a habit of running longer than planned. After three months, you go month to month, so you only stay as long as you need. Give us 30 days' notice by phone or email when you are ready to move out.
Drive-up access makes it easy. Back your trailer or van up to the container and load straight in. Our containers are airtight, waterproof and dust-proof, so your furniture is safe from the building dust at home. Access runs from 5am to 9pm, 7 days a week, 365 days a year, so you can grab things as the job goes.
Renovating locally? We are just off Ballarat Road, about five minutes from Sunshine, Ardeer and Deer Park, and 12 to 13 minutes from Footscray and Keilor.
A 20ft container (33.1 m³) holds a two to three bedroom home and costs $299 a month. For a limited time, you get 50% off your first three months, which makes a short stay even better value. Book online or call us 03 9010 6147.
