First Class Service

First Class Service. From calling early in the morning with an urgent requirement, right through to closing the lock up at the end of the day, the whole process went very smooth. Karen made, what was otherwise a very a stressful situation, very calm. Helpful, polite, reassuring - what more would you want. Thank you.

Karen was marvelous.

She explained the process clearly and helped us through the process.

The reason that I chose your firm was because of Karen's great ability to ease me through the process.

Julian was also really helpful after we set up on the days that Karen was not there.

Lovely staff

James was lovely he helped make an already stressful situation into a pleasant one. I would and have already recommended Access Self Storage to my friends and family. Only downside is that you are not able to access your storage outside of office hours which can be awkward for those who want to move stuff in after work and not be restricted.Would recommend Access self storage considering extending access hours till about 8pm.

Thank you for your thoughtful feedback, Jasett.

We are so pleased to hear that James was able to turn a stressful situation into a more pleasant one for you. That kind of support is exactly what we aim to provide, and your recommendation to friends and family means a great deal.

We also appreciate your comments regarding access hours. Our current hours are in place to balance accessibility with security and site management, but we understand that later access can be helpful, especially for those moving after work. Your suggestion has been noted and is valued.

Thank you again for taking the time to share your experience.

No doubt best service you could ask for

I have used the company before, it is so hassle free, they ask you to bring certain proof of ID,and it's all sorted within 30 mins, and you can start moving in so to speak, the team at Selly Oak are amazing, super friendly and the manager is funny ha ha funny, made a tough day lighthearted, he is so good and if you have any doubts, don't they are absolutely amazing and will help you with everything that you need to do and show you the spaces available, so you get to see what your rental area looks like, which is great because then you can visualise where everything will fit 10/10 most definitely

Hi Teresa,

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a detailed review, it really means a lot to us.

We’re so glad you found the process hassle-free and quick. Making sure everything is sorted within 30 minutes and only asking for essential ID is exactly what we aim for, especially on what can be a stressful moving day. It’s great to hear that being able to view the space in advance helped you visualise how everything would fit - we know how important that is when choosing the right rental.

We’ll be sure to pass on your kind words to the Selly Oak team. They’ll be delighted to hear that their friendly approach (and the manager’s humour, Anil's awesome) helped make a tough day feel lighter. Helping customers feel confident, supported, and clear on their options is what we pride ourselves on.

Thank you again for trusting us and for the 10/10 recommendation, we’re always here if you need us in the future. 😊

Kind Regards,
Access Self Storage
