From protecting valuable belongings from the elements to making space for seasonal changes, self storage offers a practical and secure solution to help you transition smoothly into the colder months.
Outdoor furniture, for example and other items such as BBQs will last longer if stored inside. But this takes up space better used for other things.
Winter is all about staying warm and cozy indoors. But a cluttered home can make that harder than it needs to be. By moving non-essential items into storage, you create breathing room at home.
You can safely store away summer clothes and linen while keeping your winter essentials within easy reach. For families with young children, storage is also a great way to manage growing wardrobes. Hand-me-downs can be boxed, labelled, and stored for the next child neatly and out of the way.
Winter can be a slower season for some businesses, especially those in trades, events, or outdoor services. If you're scaling back operations for the season, a storage unit gives you a secure place to house tools, promotional material, or excess stock without paying commercial rent for unused space.
Our local storage facility staff are also just a phone call away to help you decide. Contact us now For personalised service and deals on storage and packaging at one of our 4 Locations. Get a Quote

Spotlight on the Humble, Often Overlooked Lockbox
It doesn’t beep. It doesn’t flash. It doesn’t announce its presence. And yet, it quietly keeps the wheels turning in homes, rentals, and retreats across Aotearoa.

It doesn’t beep. It doesn’t flash. It doesn’t announce its presence. And yet, it quietly keeps the wheels turning in homes, rentals, and retreats across Aotearoa.
The humble lockbox—unassuming, solid, and ever-reliable—is a backbone of Kiwi practicality. In a country that thrives on self-service, shared trust, and getting things done without a fuss, the lockbox fits right in. A simple combo, a click, and you're in. No frantic key hunts, no awkward handovers. Just access when and where it’s needed.
It’s not glamorous. It’s not smart-tech. But it is smart. Durable in rain, sun, and frost. Always on. Always waiting. A tiny vault of trust.
We don’t talk about it much. Maybe because it’s not meant to stand out. But maybe, just maybe, it deserves a quiet nod of appreciation—for doing its job, day in and day out, without needing applause.
Here’s to the lockbox: unsung hero of logistics, freedom, and the quietly efficient Kiwi way.

“We’ve made eight soldiers and 20 poppies plus the smaller poppies that go on the soldiers’ chests which we will place around the gardens and outside the resident lounge here,” Roger says, agreeing that they will make a perfect backdrop for the village’s planned remembrance morning tea.
