Self Storage in Ashington
Container and indoor self storage for Ashington, fifteen minutes down the A189 at our gated site in Blyth. Brand-new 8ft to 40ft units, 24/7 fob access — and a 5.0 rating from 74 Google reviews.
A straight run down the Spine Road
Ashington sits right on the A189, which makes getting to us straightforward — south past North Seaton and you are here in about fifteen minutes. No town-centre parking to worry about, and you can drive right up to your unit and unload.
We store for people all over Ashington and the Wansbeck area, from Hirst and Seaton Hirst to North Seaton and out towards Newbiggin. Household moves and business stock mostly, plus tools, archives and the contents of a good many garages.
Moving house
Waiting on a completion date? Store a full three-bedroom home in a 20ft container and take the pressure off.
Downsizing & decluttering
Moving somewhere smaller, or clearing a loft or garage. Park what you are not ready to part with and decide later.
Business storage
Stock, tools and archives for Ashington traders and businesses. Flexible terms, no long lease to sign.
Renovating
Clear a room, a garage or a whole house while the work happens, then bring it back when you are ready.

Full size guide
Exact dimensions and capacities for every container we hire, so you can work it out before you ring.

All of that is set out properly on our 24/7 access and secure storage page — how the fob works, what the cameras cover, and why you hold the only key to your own unit.

Your own entry fob. Come and go whenever suits, day or night, seven days a week.
Electric gated compound
A private, gated yard monitored by 24-hour CCTV, with well-lit hard standing throughout.

Collection & delivery
Storing with us? We can collect from anywhere in Ashington and bring it back when you need it.
Storage in Ashington, whatever you need it for
People come to us from Ashington for four fairly different reasons. Whichever one you are, the answer is the same — you take the size you need, on weekly terms, and get at it whenever you like.
Cheap and affordable storage
Terms are weekly and you only pay for the size you actually take, so an 8ft costs what an 8ft costs — you are not subsidising a big indoor building you never walk into. No long tie-in, no exit fee, and the key deposit comes back when you hand the keys in. If a smaller unit would do, we will tell you.
Long-term storage
Plenty of our Ashington customers have been with us for years rather than weeks, and there is no penalty for staying. The rate does not creep up because you stopped paying attention, and you can move down a size if you clear some of it out. Long-term works well here because the containers are brand-new and ventilated, so nothing deteriorates while it waits.
Domestic and household storage
The most common one. A house move where the dates do not line up, a loft or garage clear-out, a bereavement, a renovation that needs the front room emptied. A 10ft takes a one-bedroom flat, a 20ft a full three-bedroom house. Fifteen minutes down the A189 and you can drive right up to the door and unload straight in.
Outdoor and open storage
Not everything belongs in a container. We have gated hard standing for plant, materials, trailers and vehicles — lit, on CCTV, and reached on the same personal fob. Trade customers from Ashington and across the Wansbeck use it for kit that is easier left outside and needs collecting at six in the morning.
Not sure which of those you are? Ring 01670 333030 and describe what you have. It takes two minutes and we do it every day.

Ashington storage questions, answered
How far is Blyth Storage from Ashington?
About eight miles. From Ashington town centre it is roughly fifteen minutes down the A189 Spine Road, leaving at the Cowpen Road junction for Blyth Riverside Business Park. There is also a page for the wider NE63 postcode.
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 can I store?
Household contents and business goods — furniture, white goods, boxes, tools, stock, archives and equipment. To be straight with you about what we do not do: we are not a vehicle store, so caravans, motorhomes, boats and cars are not something we take. If that is what you need, you will want a specialist vehicle storage site.
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.
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.
Is there a minimum contract?
No long tie-in. Terms are weekly, and you can move up or down a size as your needs change without any penalty.
Can you collect from Ashington?
Yes. We run a man-with-a-van service across Northumberland and the North East, and Ashington 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.
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 Morpeth, Bedlington and Newbiggin.
Is the site secure?
The compound is gated with electric steel gates and fob-controlled entry, monitored by 24-hour CCTV, and the yard is well lit throughout. The site is fully automated, so entries are logged. You fit your own padlock, so nobody else can open your unit.
