Space is something most Bristol households and small businesses never seem to have enough of. Moves overlap, builders arrive, students head home for the summer, and tools, stock and paperwork pile up in vans, garages and spare rooms. Storage can take the pressure off, but people want somewhere secure, flexible and easy to reach, without long contracts or hidden hassle. A local, family-run facility can offer just that, and it's worth knowing what's available before you need it. Here's a quick look at what local people can expect.

For anyone searching for Storage Units in BS2, Bristol, Stashed Away offers a practical option at its facility just off Muller Road, near the M32. Units are made of steel, with unique cylinder locks, so no padlock is needed, and sizes run from small lockers to 150 sq ft. The building is temperature controlled, dry and covered by 24/7 CCTV and an intruder alarm. Customers reserve online, then use a personal key fob to visit between 7am and 7pm, seven days a week. Rentals start at four weeks, with no long lease.

The family-run team behind the facility built its service around real life changes. Movers and downsizers can store furniture while they decide what suits a new home, and renovators can clear rooms before builders arrive. Students have smaller lockers and dedicated pick-up terms for term breaks. Tradespeople and small businesses can keep tools, seasonal stock and files secure, and home-based businesses can rent a unit as a workspace, with shelving, Wi-Fi and electricity outlets available. Free van use (subject to availability), trolleys and a Box Shop for packing supplies make the whole process easier.

Stashed Away also cares about what happens to items people no longer need. They let customers with items in storage advertise unwanted belongings, such as bikes, scooters or building materials, instead of sending them to landfill. Buyers contact sellers directly, viewings are by appointment only, and a suggested 10% of each sale goes to charity. It's a small way to reduce waste while freeing up space. Whether you're moving, renovating, studying or running a business, they aim to make storage simple, secure and flexible for local people. Ready to free up some space?
