Self Storage in Gosforth
Container and indoor self storage for Gosforth, twenty-five minutes north up the A189. Brand-new 8ft to 40ft units, 24/7 fob access, drive-to-door parking — and a 5.0 rating from 74 Google reviews.
More space, and none of the city faff
Gosforth’s Victorian and Edwardian houses are handsome, but the ones that came with proper storage are the exception. City-centre facilities fill the gap at a price, and usually mean a lift, a corridor and a trolley at the far end.
Twenty-five minutes up the A189 you get a brand-new container in a gated yard, you park at the door, and you load straight in. Customers come to us from Gosforth, Brunton Park, Melton Park and Wideopen — usually because they wanted the space without the city prices.

Gosforth storage questions, answered
How far is Blyth Storage from Gosforth?
Around thirteen miles, roughly twenty-five minutes outside rush hour. Head north on the A189 towards Cramlington and Blyth, then leave at the Cowpen Road junction for Blyth Riverside Business Park.
Why come out here rather than use a city-centre facility?
Three reasons our Gosforth customers give us: you drive right up to your unit rather than using a lift and a trolley, the containers are brand new rather than tired, and the rates are lower than city-centre equivalents. Most people load once and unload once, so the extra fifteen minutes costs very little.
Can I get to my storage at any time?
Yes. Every customer gets a personal entry fob and the site is accessible 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The office is open Monday to Saturday, 8am to 6pm, if you need to speak to someone.
What size unit do I need?
An 8ft container holds roughly 100 boxes, or the contents of a garage. A 10ft suits a one-bedroom flat. A 20ft takes a full three-bedroom house. The 40ft is a high cube — nine feet tall inside, around 320 square feet. Ring and describe what you have — we do this every day.
I only need somewhere small and dry for documents.
Then an indoor unit is probably right rather than a container. We have small, medium and large units inside the building, clean and dry, with the same 24/7 fob access.
What can I store?
Household contents and business goods — furniture, white goods, boxes, tools, stock, archives and equipment. What we do not run is a dedicated caravan or boat storage service, so if that is what you are after you will want a specialist site. A container is a different matter: a 40ft will take a car or a motorbike under cover if that is what you need.
Will my belongings get damp?
No. Every container is a brand-new VENT-XL, wind and watertight, with vents on all four sides rather than the two a standard container ships with — so damp air is drawn out rather than sealed in. That is the difference between a ventilated container and a merely lined one. Customers have stored furniture through a full North East winter and taken it out completely dry.
Can you collect from Gosforth?
Yes. We run a man-with-a-van service across the North East. It is a standalone service — you can book it whether or not you store with us — and there is a discount when you take a unit at the same time.
How quickly can I move in?
Often the same day. Bring a passport or driving licence for ID and we can usually have you set up within fifteen minutes. We also cover Newcastle and North Shields.
