FAQs

How much land do I need to start a self storage business?

Many successful UK self storage sites begin with as little as half an acre. With our site consultancy and CAD layouts, we’ll help you design a facility that makes the most of your available space.

Do I need planning permission for a container self storage site?

In most cases, local planning consent is required for container-based self storage. StoragePro can guide you on the process and help you create a compliant and efficient site layout.

How long does it take to set up a self storage business with StoragePro?

Depending on your location and approvals, many new sites are ready to open within 12–16 weeks. Our revenue calculators, consultancy, and industry connections are designed to help you launch quickly and effectively.

Can you provide the containers as well as business support?

Yes – unlike standard container suppliers, StoragePro provides both. We supply high-quality shipping containers for self storage and combine this with expert business advice, finance options, and partner services.

What does the Self Storage Association (SSA) discount include?

StoragePro customers receive 10% off their first year of SSA membership, giving access to industry resources, networking events, training, and the credibility of being part of the UK’s leading trade association.

Is StoragePro only for new businesses, or can you help with expansion?

We work with both. Whether you’re starting a self storage business from scratch or scaling up an existing site, our tailored solutions help you grow confidently and profitably.

Unfortunately our delivery was delayed by several hours but the driver made up for lost time, he was very polite and proffessional and sited the container inch perfect.

Nancie24th October 2025

I cannot thank the staff at S Jones Containers enough. Everyone I spoke to went over and above to help. The containers were ordered and delivered in a very timely manner. We were kept informed at all times. The containers arrived at the time expected and were very easy to install. Thank you to everyone at S Jones Containers. I would highly recommend this company, it was a pleasure doing business with them.

Shazia was helpful from my first enquiry to the delivery of my container. She sorted any query and enabled me to buy exactly what I was looking for. The driver who delivered container was also a credit to his company. Nothing was too much trouble and everything done with a smile .
