We want you to be clear about the costs of self storage and offer a Price Match Guarantee
At Segment® Storage we don’t want you to feel confused about storage prices and what is and is not included.
What factors influence the cost of a storage unit?
What factors do not influence the cost of your storage unit?
The size of your unit
The larger the unit the more expensive it will be, however on a price per foot basis, the larger units are generally a more cost effective option.
The length of time you store
The longer you commit to stay at our store the better the deal we will be able to give you.
Discuss your thoughts with our team and they can help you to get the best price available.
The popularity of your chosen unit size
Some unit sizes are always more popular than others, there can often be no rhyme or reason to this, but popular units may be more expensive or can on occasion have a waiting list.
Ground floor or first floor
Ground floor units are generally more expensive than first floor units due to the ease of access.
However, we do have a lift at Segment, but if you like the exercise, you can always take the stairs to the units on the first floor.
On the flip side however if you do not intend to access your unit regularly the first floor units represent better value for money.
Extended access hours
For the majority of our customers, accessing their unit during our normal hours of 8am to 8pm Monday to Sunday is sufficient.
However some customers need to access their unit earlier in the morning or later into the evening, for these customers we can offer extended access hours.
Payment
Some customers who know they need storage for a long period of time can reduce the costs by, for example, paying for 6 or 12 months up front. If you are in this position, talk to us about the pre-payment discounts available.
How long is my storage quotation valid?
We will honour all quotations for 28 days, to enable you to budget for your storage.
What is included in the self storage price?
The quote you receive covers the cost of storage only, however all our customers benefit from these additional services:
The following are not included in your storage price:
Are there any other costs I should know about?
There will be additional charges if you lose your padlock keys and need our lock cutting service.
How much do storage units cost to rent?
The cost for our smallest unit starts from just £48 per month.
Goods Protection
Whilst our Melksham store has been built with security in mind, there may unfortunately be some scenarios that we cannot anticipate such as fire or flood. For this reason we need to ensure that all goods are fully protected when they are stored with us. We will not allow a customer to store goods that are not covered.
We provide Goods Protection cover through Hiscox who are specialist self storage insurers. It covers more perils than your standard household insurance policy and provides additional protections should something unforeseen happen. The policy is valid whilst your goods are stored within your storage unit, they are not covered whilst you are loading, unloading or in transit.
As this policy is not connected to your household policy, if there is a claim, any no claims discount you have will not be affected.
