About Us
Our storage business was established in 2012 after recognising a local shortage of affordable, secure storage. The business has since grown and provides storage solutions for a number of domestic and local trades.
All storage containers are based at Newton Lodge in a secure location.
We use brand new green shipping containers to safely store your goods; they are fitted with tamper proof padlock shield for extra security. Double door locking mechanism and very tight rubber seals to maintain all weather proof storage of your goods. All containers are placed at ground level to ensure that you can drive right up to the door for easy locking and loading. Each storage unit has a dimension of 20ft x 8ft x 8ft (160sqft) and comes with a very substantial padlock and key. If stacked sensibly and carefully our units will hold the contents of an average 3-4 bedroom house
About The Owner
My name is Rick and I am an arable farmer covering just over 1000 acres of Wheat, Barley & Beans, with a small herd of beef cattle, based near the Buckinghamshire town of Olney. I returned to the family business in 2012 after working away in farm management in Lincolnshire for 7 years. I set up the containerised storage business shortly after once I’d recognised a shortage of affordable, safe and secure storage for a handful of local small businesses’. A side shoot of the main Farming Enterprise business grew organically, with word of mouth and local adverts.
As a family business we have diversified a lot over the last 30 years, with Commercial Offices, Turf Distribution, Boxed Beef delivery service, farm contracting and now Self Storage. The storage enterprise support local trades from Landscapers to electricians; plumbers to builders and other trades. We also cater for domestic customers who are renovating, moving house or require addition storage for a long or short term period. We have also had a number of people storing vehicles, motorbikes, quad bikes, minis and family cars.

We take security seriously
We know how important security is to all our customers. Each individual unit is a solid steel box similar to a giant walk in safe. We provide all our customers with a high quality padlock which fits under a protective shroud for additional security. There is also room for our customer to attach their own padlock for additional piece of mind. The site is covered by remote monitored, infrared CCTV giving 24 hour surveillance. We have just installed a further 7 cameras to the site so there are no hidden corners. The site is also fitted with a newly installed electric gate where access is only gained via number plate recognition with all movements on and off site logged.
