How it works for a shoot
Load the car at the doors
Back up to your container and load stands, backdrops and cases straight in. No lifts or long walks with heavy cases.
Early call time? Access from 5am
Access is from 5am to 9pm, 7 days a week. Need in earlier for a sunrise shoot? Give us a day's notice and we'll arrange it, at no charge.
Cases on shelves, off the floor
Freestanding shelving keeps cases and boxes dry and easy to reach.
Pack sets by shoot
Label props by theme or client, so pulling a set together takes minutes.

Good to know before you book
A few rules from the storage agreement matter more for photographers and videographers. Better to know now than on moving day.
- No lithium-ion batteries. Camera, light and drone batteries go home with you, along with anything that has a lithium-ion battery built in.
- Keep cameras and lenses with you. Containers aren't climate controlled, so sensitive electronics are better at home or in the studio.
- Keep paper backdrops dry. Stand rolls on end, off the floor, with a small gap to the walls so air can move.
- Valuable gear needs insuring. Goods worth more than $1,000 in total must be itemised and specifically insured. Insurance is up to you.
- Freestanding shelving is fine. Nothing drilled, bolted or welded to the container without our written consent.

You really can’t go wrong with storing your personal possessions, Xmas decorations or building supplies Clean, safe, convenient and easy access to my belongings. Along with professional, helpful staff and owners
Neil Campbell
I stored a large amount of possessions for two years in one of the 20' containers & everything was safe, secure & well-protected from the elements. And all of the staff were easy to contact & quick to assist with any queries - couldn't recommend them highly enough.
Alen Bardak
We used Sunshine Self Storage for 8 months and couldn’t be happier. They were very affordable compared to other storage companies, our belongings stayed in perfect condition there was no water or dust coming through the container and Ned, Hillary and Sarah were very prompt at all times to answer any of our questions. Couldn’t recommend them enough!
