If you live in Yaldhurst, your property probably has more land than the average suburban section and the standard storage-park option does not fit how you live. Storage2u offers a different way. We deliver a clean, purpose-built mobile unit directly to your Yaldhurst address, you load it on your own schedule, and we move it to our 24/7 monitored depot in Upper Riccarton.
Yaldhurst sits on the western edge of Christchurch where the suburbs thin out into rural-residential blocks, lifestyle sections, and equine properties. Storage requests we handle here tend to involve property moves, building or shed renovations, between-homes storage during a section sale, and the occasional vehicle-related cleanup. The mobile model handles all of it because the truck comes to your property.
Our portable storage units are purpose-built for households and small farms, not repurposed shipping containers. The timber-lined interiors regulate temperature and prevent the condensation and mould that a damp western-Christchurch winter drives into bare steel. For Yaldhurst furniture or tack-room gear stored across the cold months, that ventilation matters.
Storage2u is family-run by Sue and Paul from their Upper Riccarton depot, just east of Yaldhurst along the same Russley Road corridor. They have been doing this 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 belongings out of strangers’ hands.
How It Works
Step 1
We deliver your Storage2u portable unit and packing supplies to your Yaldhurst property. We park the unit on a flat, accessible part of the block so loading is easy and on your 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. Keep it there for a season, a year, or longer.
Step 3
When you want your belongings back, give us a call. We deliver the unit to your nominated Yaldhurst or wider Canterbury address so you can unpack in your own time.
