Planning your next adventure and wondering where to keep all your belongings? While you could cram it all into your friend’s living-room, we have a better idea (plus, it won’t ruin your friendship). Whether touring the globe or just popping away for a short break, MORE! Self Storage’s travel storage units offer the perfect solution for all that excess baggage. Here are four reasons why you should consider our holiday self-storage in Bournemouth and Basingstoke.

1. Keep your items safe with secure self storage

There’s nothing worse than having to worry about the safety of your belongings when you’re relaxing on a beach in Bali or hiking up in the Alps. Unfortunately, if you’ve left your items in the care of a friend or family member, that’s likely what you’re going to have to face. You never know who’s going to have access or what they’re going to do with it all if they suddenly decide they want their spare room back. You don’t want to return and find everything stashed under a tarpaulin in the garden, do you?

Instead, with our secure self-storage units, you can jet off with the full peace of mind that your belongings are safe. You hold the only key to your personal storage unit and all our facilities are monitored 24/7 by comprehensive CCTV coverage.

2. Flexibility for the free spirits

The best adventures are often unplanned. Perhaps you’ve decided to extend your stay in a city you’ve fallen in love with, or maybe a last-minute opportunity has popped up on another continent? Either way, with travel storage available from MORE! Self Storage in Basingstoke and Bournemouth, there’s no need to worry about a rigid rental period. We offer a simple 30-day rolling contract, so you’re free to keep your self-storage unit as long as you like.

3. Avoid extra baggage fees

If there’s one thing airlines are known for – other than, you know, flying – it’s their exorbitant baggage fees. Why drag along a heavy suitcase filled with winter clothes when you’re chasing the summer sun? Having nowhere else to put it is no longer an excuse. Drop off your extras at one of our convenient self-storage facilities and spend all that money you’ve saved on gelato.

4. Save on rent while you wander

On an extended trip? The last thing you want is to pay rent for a space you’re not using. With your belongings safely tucked away in our holiday self-storage units, you’re free to move out and truly embrace the life of a nomadic wonderer.

Or, if you can, how about renting out your home? Move your personal items into secure self-storage and prime your home for tenants. That way, you can even earn while you’re on your adventures.
