Self storage in Bridgend just got a lot more affordable. If you’ve found yourself searching for ‘cheap self storage near me’ and you’re in the Bridgend area, you’re in luck. easyStorage is now in South Wales and are bringing their innovative self storage model to Bridgend. Traditional self storage can be frustrating and expensive. Hiring a van, hauling all your goods to the unit and offloading everything yourself requires a considerable amount of time and effort. Additionally, once everything’s in the unit you’ll most likely be charged a premium monthly rate for what is essentially an empty room in a large building. The easyStorage approach to self storage is not only designed to save you money but also to reduce the frustration, effort and time it takes to get your belongings into storage. 

With easyStorage you can book your storage online or over the phone. Our custom easyStorage van will then arrive at your doorstep with your easyStorage storage pod. Your pod replaces the need for a traditional self storage unit and keeps your goods safe and secure for the duration of their time in storage. Our crew will assist you to package all your items for maximum protection before packing them into your pod, ensuring all of the storage space is used efficiently. That’s right, there’s no van rental or heavy lifting required when you use easyStorage. Once your pod has been professionally packed it gets sealed on site for added security and transported to one of our secure storage warehouses. When you need your things back you can book a return and have your pod brought back to your doorstep (or any doorstep for that matter) and unpacked by our friendly easyStorage crew. If you need access to your pod during its time in storage you can book a pod access visit. Before you arrive for your access visit we’ll ensure your pod is ready for you so that you can drive right up to it, grab what you need, put it straight into your car and drive off. You won’t need to deal with a maze of storage unit doors or have your foot run over by a trolly that seemingly has a mind of its own. 

In Welsh ‘Pen-y-bont ar Ogwr’ or ‘Pen-y-bont’ means "the end of the bridge on the Ogmore" and is undoubtedly where the name Bridgend originated.

Bridgend has been occupied by the Romans, the Normans and several Welsh lords and Chieftains throughout its history. Each occupation leaving its own unique mark on the town.

Another happy easyStorage customer

Here’s what one of our recent customers had to say about their easyStorage experience: “Collection was very quick and efficient! The two helpers were very nice and did a great job. Took less than one hour to load the whole pod. For me personally this type of storage is much more cost efficient and convenient than some of the self storage options as you have everything included and just need to pack up your things - had my doubts at first due to the low cost option but I definitely recommend this service for anyone looking for a reasonably priced storage option!”
