Storage in NE63
Self storage and container hire for NE63, a straight fifteen-minute run down the A189 from Ashington. Brand-new 8ft to 40ft units, 24/7 fob access, drive-to-door parking — and a 5.0 rating on Google.
Fifteen minutes down the Spine Road
NE63 covers Ashington and the villages around it — Hirst, North Seaton, Woodhorn, Linton, Ellington, Lynemouth and Cresswell. There is very little purpose-built storage inside the postcode itself, which is why most people end up looking south.
We are the closest gated container site going that way: down the A189 past North Seaton and Bedlington, off at Cowpen Road, and you are here. About seven miles and fifteen minutes, with no town centre to fight through at either end.
Business & stock
Stock, archives, tools and seasonal equipment. Flexible terms and no long commercial lease to sign.
Moving house
Bridging a gap between completion dates? Store a full three-bedroom home in a 20ft container.
No room in a city flat
Bikes, sports kit, furniture and everything a flat has nowhere to put. Reclaim the spare room.
Downsizing & decluttering
Moving somewhere smaller, or clearing a loft or garage. Park what you are not ready to part with and decide later, without the pressure.
Which size do you need?
Not sure what you need? Ring us and describe what you have got — we do this every day, and it takes about a minute to work out.
8ft container
Around 100 boxes, or a cleared garage. Garden tools, bikes and seasonal stock.
10ft container
A one-bedroom flat, or office equipment and supplies during a move or refit.
20ft container
A full three-bedroom home, with room to walk in and reach what you need.
40ft high cube

Small, medium and large units inside the building — dry, clean and secure, for smaller loads and documents.

NE63 storage questions, answered
Which areas does NE63 cover?
NE63 is Ashington and the villages around it — Hirst, North Seaton, Woodhorn, Linton, Ellington, Lynemouth and Cresswell. We take customers from right across the district, and it is one of the areas we collect from most often.
How far is it from Ashington?
About seven miles and fifteen minutes. Join the A189 southbound at North Seaton, carry on past Bedlington, and come off at the Cowpen Road junction for Blyth Riverside Business Park. It is dual carriageway nearly all the way, so it is a quicker run than the mileage suggests — and there is no town centre to get through at either end.
When can I get to my unit?
Twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. You get your own fob for the gate, so early mornings, evenings, weekends and bank holidays are all fine and there is no slot to book. The office is staffed Monday to Saturday, 8am to 6pm, and closed Sundays, so ring in those hours if you want to talk to someone.
What sizes do you have?
Brand-new containers in 8ft, 10ft, 20ft and 40ft, plus indoor units for smaller loads. An 8ft handles a garage clear-out or a one-bed flat. A 20ft takes a typical three-bedroom house. The 40ft is a high cube — nine feet tall inside, around 320 square feet — and it is what most of our commercial customers settle on.
Can you collect from Ashington?
Yes. We run a man-with-a-van service across Northumberland and the North East, and NE63 is one of our regular runs. 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. Ring once and we will sort both ends.
Is there a minimum contract?
No. Terms are weekly and you can leave when you are finished. You can also move up or down a size whenever you like, so if you take something big for a house move you are not stuck with it afterwards. Nothing to sign for a year, and no exit penalty.
How secure is the site?
The yard is fully gated with fob-controlled entry, so only current customers get in, and it is covered by CCTV throughout. The site is fully automated, which means every entry is logged. The containers are new, wind and watertight, and you hold the only key to yours.
Can I use it for a business?
A lot of NE63 tradespeople do — joiners, sparks, groundworkers keeping tools and materials somewhere secure without paying for a unit on an industrial estate. Online sellers keep stock here too. You can take deliveries, and 24/7 access means you can load before a 7am start. We have larger commercial yard space as well if a container is not enough.
How do I work out what size I need?
Ring us on 01670 333030 or message us on WhatsApp and tell us what you are storing — number of rooms, or roughly how many pallets. We would rather get you into the right size first time than sell you something too big. No charge for the advice, and you are welcome to come and see a unit before deciding.
