Question 1

Do I have to be 18 or older to rent a Storage Unit?

Accepted Answer

Yes.  To rent a Storage Unit, customers must have legal capacity and therefore be legally recognized as an adult.  In New Zealand, this is limited to persons 18 years and over.

Question 2

How can I pay?

Accepted Answer

Payment of rental fees is via Bank Transfer (Automatic Payment/Direct Credit).

Question 3

Are there any items that I am not able to store?

Accepted Answer

There are items/materials which may not be stored on our premises due to legal/safety/hygiene reasons.  These include liquids, flammable substances/combustibles, explosive, radioactive or toxic materials, munitions and perishables (organic materials). Our Terms and Conditions also prohibit the storage of items that are either; irreplaceable or exceeding a dollar value of  $NZD2000.00 in aggregate, unless specifically itemized on the Storer's personal contents insurance policy.  Illegal or unlawfully acquired items are prohibited.  Please contact us if you have any questions regarding a specific item.

Question 4

How much notice must I give when cancelling my contract?

Accepted Answer

All contracts have a notice period of three business days to the end of the rental period/billing cycle.

Question 5

How long is the minimum rental period?

Accepted Answer

We pride ourselves on being responsive to client needs and flexible where it counts.  That means you have the flexibility to store for as little as one week, or for longer term as required.

Question 6

Does the Unit have electricity or lights?

Accepted Answer

None of our Storage Units have lights or electricity inside them.  Our Sheds do have power and lighting.

Question 7

Do I need to give notice when I move out?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Please advise our office via email when your Unit is cleaned and ready for inspection. On your departure, please take all of your belongings, and remove your lock.

Question 8

How much does it cost to store a 20FT Container?

Accepted Answer

Renting a site from us is easy.  Sites for individually-owned units are subject to availability and may be leased on a monthly basis for as little as $165 per calendar month, GST inclusive.  We have the best deals on space in Tauranga at Storage Container Guys, 11 Hynds Road Greerton.

Question 9

What happens to a Storage Unit when the renter dies or is permanently disabled?

Accepted Answer

Self Storage leases are written as private rental agreements, which means only the Renter/Lessee named on the contract is legally entitled to access the Unit.   When the Lessee dies, control of the Unit and responsibility for the account falls to the deceased's estate - usually the Executor of the will, or if no will exists, then a court appointed administrator.  Storage operators have a contractual obligation to protect the rights and privacy of clients even in death, so it is a requirement to provide legal documents supporting your authority to act on behalf of a deceased or permanently disabled person.  Examples of such documents can be letters testamentary or Power of Attorney (in cases of severe disability).  Once the proper documents have been provided,  Storage Container Guys works closely with the family/their representative to grant access and settle accounts.  Renters themselves can ease the burden on those left behind by including their Storage Unit in their estate planning documents.  Supplying an itemized list of contents and account information to an executor can prevent confusion and make things easier on the family, financially and emotionally, during a difficult time.
