When you need secure storage in Hindmarsh, the best place to start looking is Spacer; we created a website for those with excess storage to list and match with people looking to rent them. Most of our storage listings are from individuals but we also have storage on offer from purpose-built storage centres. Browse our wide range of listings, from small storage spaces available for one or two boxes, all the way up to those large enough to fit a car. The exact storage unit you need depends entirely on what you're planning on storing there. If you have precious items, then you may wish to find a unit that offers excellent security. However, if you're simply storing additional furniture and other household items that are less likely to be stolen, then you may prefer a large space that is easily accessible.

A storage unit is handy for all sorts of situations: the most common one is when you have a lot of stuff that you don't want to throw it away, but you don't exactly need it in your home! Other uses for a storage unit include keeping copies of invaluable items, either personal or business-related. This can include family photos, personal documents (passports, etc.), and data backup hard drives. Many of these items are easily duplicated but can be challenging to replace if lost in a house fire. Therefore, it is ideal to have copies stored in two different locations.

How to get a storage unit in Hindmarsh?

When you start looking for storage in Hindmarsh, it is best to have a list of everything you'd like. This can include close proximity to where you live, ideal security options, and the size you require. At Spacer, you can sort through all the storage units on offer by using our search filters. As we have many units on offer, it can be a little overwhelming, but you'll only see suitable units by narrowing them down. When you look for storage in Hindmarsh, we'll show you everything currently available within a 10km range. If you need more options, you can choose to see everything listed, and it'll include all the currently booked units. While these may not be available, you can request to be notified as soon as it becomes free.

After you find a suitable unit for your needs, you can choose to reserve the space. This will take you to a detailed page where the host has included more information about the space on offer. We encourage our hosts to write as much detail about the space as possible to help renters decide. You'll find notes on when to access the storage space, the security available, and any other options. If you're satisfied with everything on offer, you can click on 'request space' to confirm your booking. Next, you can sign up to Spacer (or log in if you're already a member). After that, we'll take some details and put you in contact with the host. Finally, the host will make arrangements with you to provide keys and introduce you to your new storage unit!

How do I know if the items are safe in the storage unit?

When you're looking for storage in Hindmarsh, appropriate security is probably high on your list of things to consider. All storage units will generally come with some amount of security as a standard, but the level of security is often up to you. When our hosts make a listing, they will add what security options are available. This can include CCTV, swipe cards, pin pads, or even guard patrols. You may find that the more security a space offers, the higher the cost is per month. However, our listings give you the freedom to choose, especially if your items do not require high-end security and you want to save on your monthly charge.

For the protection of your items, it is best to make sure everything is packed into good quality boxes or storage tubs. Ideally, everything you store should be itemised, and you should take photos of everything after it has been loaded into the unit. Many storage centres and hosts will allow you to supply your own padlock. This is excellent as it gives you the choice of the type of padlock you'd prefer. For the best security, every time you place items in the unit, ensure the padlock is installed correctly. In most cases, your belongings are secure inside a unit, but we include up to $10,000 in insurance for peace of mind.

What do I do if I am not able to find a storage unit in Hindmarsh?

At Spacer, we have storage available all over Australia. If you can't find storage in Hindmarsh, it is best to look at nearby suburbs in Adelaide. For residents from Hindmarsh, you can look at nearby suburbs, including Malvern, Brooklyn Park, Torrensville, and Thebarton. If you don't mind a bit of travel for the ideal storage unit, you can look at suburbs a little further away, such as Port Adelaide and Salisbury Plain.

In Adelaide, storage spaces are at a premium, so they can be booked quite fast when they are listed. If you are keen on storage in Hindmarsh or the nearby suburbs, but you cannot find anything suitable, you can look at units already booked. While these may not be currently available, you can request to be added to the waiting list, so when the current renter no longer needs it, you'll be in line to get it.
