If you have been searching for storage in Hoon Hay and the idea of hiring a van for the weekend does not appeal, Storage2u offers a simpler option. We deliver a clean, secure mobile unit to your Hoon Hay address, you load it on your own schedule, and we move it to our 24/7 monitored depot in Upper Riccarton until you need it back.
Hoon Hay is a settled south-west Christchurch suburb with a strong family profile and a steady stream of household renovations, between-rental moves, and school-holiday tidy-ups. The storage requests we handle here usually fit one of those patterns. The mobile model means none of it requires a Saturday spent driving a truck across town.
Our portable storage units are purpose-built for residential use, not repurposed shipping containers. The timber-lined interiors regulate temperature and prevent the condensation and mould that Christchurch winters can drive into unlined metal storage. For furniture stored during a Hoon Hay renovation or a long term-between-rentals stretch, that ventilation matters.
Storage2u is family-run by Sue and Paul from their depot in Upper Riccarton, a short drive from Hoon Hay. They have been doing this since 2011. There are no call centres or third-party drivers. When you ring about Hoon Hay you speak to the people who will deliver and collect the unit, and Paul is the only person who enters the storage warehouse.
How It Works
Step 1
We deliver your Storage2u portable unit and packing supplies to your Hoon Hay address. We park it on the driveway or alongside the garage so loading is easy and on your own timeline.
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. Keep it there for the duration of a renovation, a rental gap, or a longer life change.
Step 3
When you want your belongings back, give us a call. We deliver the unit to your nominated Hoon Hay or wider Christchurch address so you can unpack in your own time.
