Rolleston is growing fast, and the nearest traditional storage parks are a long drive into Christchurch. Storage2u offers a much better option for a Selwyn town. We deliver a clean, secure mobile unit to your Rolleston 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 Rolleston storage we handle is connected to new builds. You might be waiting on a code-of-compliance certificate, juggling a build delay between rental and move-in dates, or holding furniture while a section is graded. We also see plenty of lifestyle-block owners with seasonal gear that does not need to live in the shed year-round. The mobile model fits all of it because you never have to drive to a depot.
Our portable storage units are purpose-built for households and businesses, not repurposed shipping containers. The timber-lined interiors regulate temperature and prevent the condensation and mould that can plague unlined steel boxes over a Canterbury winter. For a Rolleston new build where furniture might sit in storage for months, that protection is the difference between belongings that come out clean and belongings that do not.
Storage2u is family-owned and run by Sue and Paul from their depot in Upper Riccarton, an easy run up State Highway 1 to Rolleston. They have been doing this since 2011. There are no call centres and no third-party drivers. Paul is the only person who enters the storage warehouse, which keeps your unit out of strangers’ hands.
How It Works
Step 1
We deliver your Storage2u portable unit and packing supplies to your Rolleston property. We position the unit on the driveway or alongside the section so loading is easy and on your 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. Store it for a few weeks during a build delay or longer if the project drags on.
Step 3
When the new build is ready or your plans firm up, just call. We deliver the unit to your nominated Rolleston or wider Christchurch address so you can unpack in your own time.

Our depot is in Upper Riccarton, about 22 kilometres from central Rolleston. The travel distance is built into the quote and there are no surprise fees. You will get an all-in figure before you commit.
Yes. Book the unit and we will keep things flexible. Build delays are one of the most common reasons Rolleston customers use us, so we are used to extensions. There is no penalty if the certificate of compliance is later than planned.
Yes. Our driver is comfortable with gravel and rural access. Send us a photo or describe the driveway when you book so we can plan the delivery and turning room.
Yes. This is a very common pattern. We can pick up from the rental, store the loaded unit during any gap, and deliver to the new build when you have the keys. Just give us both addresses when you book.
In most cases within one to two business days of confirming the booking. If you need it sooner, call us on 0800 749 722 and we will see what is possible.
We can store equipment that fits inside the unit and is safe to load (drained of fuel, clean, and dry). For very large machinery we will let you know if a unit suits or if you need a different solution.
The unit is locked and stored indoors at our warehouse where only Paul enters. You can add your own padlock for additional peace of mind – we will let you know the right lock size when we drop off.
