Sam and Gary Hunt, Leicester

When Gary and I left the police force, we wanted to start our own business. We knew about the growing demand for storage and we were drawn to easyStorage by their revolutionary new service and incredible value. Franchising gave us vital know how, technology, tools and centralised sales.

Alex and Emma Glass, Thames Valley

Husband and wife team Alex and Emma have a background in property which goes hand in hand with storage. They launched their Thames Valley easyPod® franchise in 2020. They have now launched their first easyContainer® site.

Richard & Steven Gill, Hertfordshire

We’re a father and son team with no previous experience in storage. Franchising with such a well known brand provided us with an advantage from day one. The model attracted us as it allows us to build recurring revenue. We hit the road running in March 2021 and have never looked back.

easyStorage gives you competitive advantages

easyStorage is on a mission to be the ‘go-to’ brand for storage and it has significant key advantages.

Market opportunity

Cushman and Wakefield estimates the global storage market is growing by £2 billion a year. The UK has the strongest uptake in Europe, yet that’s still just one tenth of the USA. Bring down prices and it makes that market opportunity even more attractive.

Low prices

Self-storage uses expensive ‘main road’ locations and inside they lose half their building’s capacity to corridors and lifts. ‘Eureka spoiler’ easyStorage takes regular warehousing and uses modular easyPod stacking to fit more in. easyStorage prices can be 50% lower.

Mobile

Self-storage customers do heavy lifting and van hire. easyStorage customers relax as we take easyPods to them, load and return them to base. Access is booked online and easyPods are moved to a customer area with parking.

Your franchise comes with the tools and support

easyStorage launched in 2017 with a new technology-driven approach to storage.

Innovation

easyStorage find efficiency by developing new technology. VAULT is the online platform franchisees use to manage customers, calendar and recurring payments. MAVIS is the mobile app used on van to update status. Your unique dashboard maps KPIs in realtime.

Centralised marketing

easyStorage has a central team to plan and manage digital marketing, SEO, social media and a successful partnerships programme. As a franchisee you will have access to effective collateral to help raise important localised brand awareness.

Central sales
