Prebbleton has grown quickly over the last few years, with new subdivisions, family-sized sections, and a constant flow of people moving in. Storage2u suits that pattern. We deliver a clean, purpose-built mobile unit to your Prebbleton 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.
Most Prebbleton storage we handle involves new builds, family moves between local rentals and bought homes, lifestyle blocks on the town’s outer edge, and the occasional between-properties booking when settlement dates do not line up. The mobile model fits because there is no truck hire and no driving into Christchurch.
Our portable storage units are purpose-built for households, not repurposed shipping containers. The timber-lined interiors regulate temperature and prevent the condensation and mould that Selwyn winters can drive into bare steel. For Prebbleton furniture stored during a long new-build wait, that ventilation prevents the damp damage that ruins fabric and timber.
Storage2u is family-run by Sue and Paul from their Upper Riccarton depot. They have been serving Selwyn since 2011. There are no third-party drivers and no call centres. Paul is the only person who enters the storage warehouse, which keeps your unit out of strangers’ hands while it is in our care.
How It Works
Step 1
We deliver your Storage2u portable unit and packing supplies to your Prebbleton property. We position the unit 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 back to our 24/7 security-monitored, indoor depot in Upper Riccarton. Store it for the duration of a build, a settlement gap, or a longer life change.
Step 3
When the new place is ready or your plans firm up, give us a call. We deliver the unit to your nominated Prebbleton or wider Canterbury address so you can unpack in your own time.
