Working as a tradesperson means carrying tools, parts, and stock wherever you go. The problem is that space runs out quickly. Vans get cluttered, garages overflow, and leaving expensive kit lying around is never safe. That’s where our self-storage units for tradespeople come in.
At Self Stor, we make it simple for plumbers, joiners, electricians, and other trades to keep everything secure, tidy, and easy to access.
Keep Tools Safe & Secure
As you will know, your tools are your livelihood. Leaving them in a van overnight is risky because vans are a prime target for thieves. Replacing stolen kit costs money and delays jobs. Our secure storage units for tradespeople in Hull and Beverley solve that problem. Each unit comes with a high-security padlock, 24/7 CCTV, and electric gate access. You can collect gear early in the morning or late at night without worry.
Tip: Label toolboxes clearly and keep heavier items low down in your unit. That saves time when you need to grab something quickly.
Choose the Right Unit Size
Picking the right size unit makes all the difference. Too small and you’ll struggle to stay organised. Too big and you’ll waste money.
Here are some of our options to think about:
- 40 sq ft unit
About the size of a garden shed. Perfect for smaller tools, fittings, or seasonal kit you don’t need daily. - 64 sq ft unit
Room for stock and larger tools. This suits tradespeople who keep extra fittings or spare appliances ready to go. - 80 sq ft unit
Great for storing bulky equipment or materials you only use on specific jobs. - 160 sq ft unit
Our largest option, ideal for trades running bigger operations with bulk stock or multiple tool sets.
Each unit is wind- and water-tight with lock boxes and vents, so your equipment stays dry and protected. If you want to know more about unit sizes, take a look at our in-depth guide.
Tip: Use shelving inside your unit. Vertical space keeps boxes, fittings, and pipes easy to reach and off the floor.
Stay Organised & Save Time
A cluttered van slows you down. Carrying everything every day doesn’t work when jobs vary. With our business storage in Hull and Beverley, you can store extra materials, boilers, radiators, larger tools, etc. Collect what you need for the day, leave the rest, and keep your van clear. That means less wasted time searching for your kit and fewer delays on site.
Tip: Create a grab-and-go section in your unit with the items you use most. That way, you can load the van in minutes.
Save Money with Bulk Buying
Many trades can cut costs by buying stock in bulk. The challenge is storage space. Keeping pipes, fittings, or cables at home isn’t practical. Our storage in Hull and Beverley gives you the room to store extra supplies safely. That way, you save money on trade discounts and always have stock ready when customers call.
Tip: Keep a simple log of what’s stored and when you last used it. This avoids buying the same item twice.
Quick & Easy Access
Our sites in Hull and Beverley are built for convenience. Drive straight up to your unit, load or unload, and get on with your day. Wide aisles fit vans and larger vehicles with no fuss. You can even move in the same day you book online.
Tip: Plan regular restocks. Setting aside 15 minutes once a week to swap out tools and collect materials helps you stay on top of work.
Flexible Contract Self Storage for Trades
Workloads rise and fall through the year. You might need more space in winter and less in summer. That’s why we offer flexible contracts with only seven days’ notice. You pay for what you use, nothing more.
Tip: Review your storage every few months. If you’re paying for space you don’t use, downsize. If you’re always running out of room, upgrade.
