Continuous Improvement, Transport Team Style

On Friday July 16, 2021, the easyStorage transport team met at the new company storage facility in Uxbridge

Now able to meet, after carefully abiding by COVID regulations, the existing team from the Hanger Lane depot all attended the get-together. On the agenda?  How to continue improving the easyStorage service to customers from their perspective.

One of the company values that sets apart easyStorage, and indeed most easyGroup companies, is the careful, seamless use of technology to improve customers’ experience and make things (you guessed it!) easy.

There’s some new technology being introduced across the whole easyStorage network, which was a big topic of discussion. I’ll have to leave you with this as a ‘teaser’ - we’ll tell you more about this later, once it’s been rolled out.

The team also spent time discussing how to further improve communication with customers ahead of working with them (collecting or delivering their belongings).

At 4.8/5, the easyStorage TrustPilot profile is great, but until it’s perfect, there’s room for improvement. The team shared their experiences and ideas, some of which will be passed on to all easyStorage franchises across the country.

We’ve included a few photos of the day for you here, but it was not all plain sailing and agreement. Over the sausage and bacon rolls, coffee and tea that kicked off the day, there was much controversy. It was one of the few heated discussions of the day. In a good-natured battle, the team were split right down the middle: HP Sauce or Tomato Ketchup. (For the record, my heart’s with the ketchup crowd!)

For some things in life, there are just no simple answers!

How to Keep Your Seasonal Clothes in a Self-Storage Properly

There’s a long list of items that can be kept in a self-storage which made this industry the most cost-effective storage solution there is and your seasonal clothing is just one of them. Clothes come in different sizes and materials and some of them can be sensitive to the changing climate that may cause damage. Let’s admit that not all of us have been blessed with enough space in our closets to store clothes that are not yet in time to be worn. We can free up more space in our closets and avoid looking it disorganised through finding available storage solutions around us. Self-storage can provide you more than just the space you need. You thought you might be throwing money on something that isn't a necessity but self-storage can maintain the quality of your seasonal clothes, protect them against any temperature-related damages, and more importantly, achieve a peaceful and stress-free living with an organised closet.

Why should you consider renting a climate-controlled storage unit?

Just as how time passes by so quickly, everything around us evolves as fast as time does. With the advanced technology that we enjoy nowadays, it brought a great impact on how things are being modernised. The same goes for the self-storage industry – during its earlier days, typical storage units follow the traditional setup. Back then, facilities are the usual box made of metal, window-less with natural ventilation, and lockable by the renter. Fast forward to the present time, self-storage facilities have immensely developed into advanced operating units. If you will notice, most of the storage companies today offer modern features that highly contributes to their marketing strategies and one of the greatest innovations out there is a climate-controlled storage facility which is becoming popular now.
