If you are looking for self storage in Harewood, Storage2u offers a simpler way to handle it. We deliver a clean, purpose-built mobile unit to your Harewood property, you load it on your timeline, and we move it to our monitored Upper Riccarton depot. No driving to a storage facility, no hiring a van.
Harewood sits at the northern edge of Christchurch, close to the airport, the showgrounds, and the cluster of light-industrial sites along Russley and Memorial Avenue. That mix means storage here gets used for everything from family moves to airport-area business stock and tradie tools. The mobile model fits all of it, because you never have to leave the property to drop things off.
Our portable mobile storage units are purpose-built for residential and business use, not repurposed shipping containers. The timber-lined interiors regulate temperature and prevent the condensation and mould that exposed metal boxes attract through a Canterbury winter. For Harewood properties with anything from household furniture to business stock, that ventilation matters.
Storage2u is a family-owned operation run by Sue and Paul out of Upper Riccarton, just a short drive south of Harewood. They have been doing this since 2011. There are no call centres, no automated booking systems, and no third-party drivers. Paul is the only person who enters the storage depot, which keeps your belongings off-limits to anyone else.
How It Works
Step 1
We deliver your Storage2u portable unit and packing supplies to your Harewood address. We position it exactly where you want, on the driveway or alongside a garage, so loading is easy and on your own schedule.
Step 2
When you are ready, we collect the loaded unit and transport it to our 24/7 security-monitored, indoor depot in Upper Riccarton. It stays there for as long as you need, with no minimum or maximum.
Step 3
When you want your belongings back, just call. We deliver your unit to your nominated Harewood or wider Christchurch address, ready for you to unpack at your own pace.

Yes. We deliver to all of Harewood, Burnside, Bishopdale, and the residential pockets near the airport perimeter. Travel time from our depot is short, which usually means we can offer next-day delivery if your booking is straightforward.
Yes. We work with several airport-adjacent businesses storing seasonal stock, archive boxes, and trade equipment. We can collect from your premises, store the loaded unit at our indoor depot, and bring it back on request.
We do not discount by suburb, but Harewood deliveries are quick and that keeps the overall quote tight. You will get a clear all-in figure when you enquire, with no fuel surcharges layered on later.
Yes, with a couple of notes. Drain fuel from petrol equipment before loading and let damp items dry out so they do not transfer moisture inside the timber unit. If you are unsure, ask when you book.
Our warehouse has 24/7 monitoring and Paul is the only person with access, which keeps risk low. We strongly recommend your own home and contents policy includes items in commercial storage, since insurance is your responsibility.
Yes. Our smallest unit is the 6 Pack, which suits boxes and a few pieces of furniture. For a single Harewood bedroom move or a business cleanout, that is usually enough.
We prefer to keep weekends for family, but we will discuss it if your situation is urgent. Most Harewood customers find a weekday slot works given how quickly we can reach you from the depot.
