Faultless storage

We needed domestic storage for two years whilst away from our house. When shopping around it surprised us how secretive some companies were about their prices, with service pushy and less than helpful. From our very first contact with sentry the service has been open honest and friendly so it was an easy decision to choose them. Absolutely no regrets, from their initial advice about size of unit (literally spot on!) through to assistance and billing we cannot fault them. To put the icing on the cake, the price for our storage was very reasonable and much less than the other companies we contacted. A well deserved five star review, thank you

Thank you Peter,
we really appreciate your great review of our Sentry Chichester Self Storage Site

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

A happy and reassured customer.

I have been on holiday for a month and was feeling a bit uneasy about my belongings in my storage container, so I came down to the yard and spoke to Sue. She reassured me that all has been well within the yard and my container is secure. I have also noticed some changes (all good changes), which has also reassured me. I could not recommend this storage place enough.

Sentry are 5-star reliable and trustworthy storage facilities

I have been dealing with Sentry since 2018 when I relocated to Europe from Hampshire.
Dave, the manager of the Shawford and Bar End facilities, has been extremely helpful throughout this period by ensuring I have good access to the right sized unit. I can say that my transition and relocation to and from Europe over the past eight years has been made so much easier with the help of the team at Sentry Self Storage and I have no hesitation recommending them to anyone.

My 3rd time using Sentry

My 3rd time using Sentry. I am pleased with the service so far, only a few days into my use of the service this time. The operation appears more slick this time but staff are still very helpfull, site is more secure with extra cameras and the convenience of 24/7 access still the best option. Thank you Sentry for supplying a first class economical service..

The Best Storage Facility

Relocated from Italy to the U.K. and it was our first time requiring the services of a storage company that ultimately we needed for a couple of months.
I must be totally honest and say that I was a little concerned that Sentry were the least expensive option when I researched the best storage company to use but I am so glad I chose them.
Great communication initially with Dave put my mind at rest, all my questions were answered promptly and even when there were problems our end with the transport from Italy that meant arrival times at Sentry were changing presented no problems to them. Nothing was too much trouble, and access and storage was a smooth as it could have been. The units were perfect for all our household items and furniture etc and I cannot recommend Dave, Clive, Matt and the team enough. From start to finish a first class operation AND I could not find a better deal to go with it. So, well done guys, thanks again, an absolute pleasure doing business with you.

Excellent self-storage facility

Never used a self storage facility before, but would definitely use Sentary if I needed one again. Made house move so much easier. Easy to get to, plenty of parking and easy to manner even large items once within. Communication is good and reasonable price.

Always extremely helpful

Always extremely helpful. No complaints whatsoever.

Several small units of different sizes always seem to be available but larger ones rather less so. Insurance of contents optional.

Recommened.
