All Secure Self Storage is proud to announce our New Insurance Policy for Customers
ARE YOUR GOODS INSURED?
Why you need to take out insurance whilst your goods are in Storage. Your possessions are valuable enough to store, so why would you not insure them against the unforeseen? Whilst the facility does everything possible to ensure your goods are safe and secure, there are some things that cannot be guaranteed to protect you against, such as fire and flood. Note: The self storage facilities’ insurance, does not cover your units contents.
According to Insurancerevenue.com, the majority of home & contents insurance policies either, don’t cover your valuables in storage, or if they do offer cover, this is on very restricted terms, provided you have remembered to advise them prior to moving into your self storage.
As a solution to this, All Secure Self Storage has partnered with Wallace McLean Ltd Insurance Brokers and specialist in Self Storage Insurance, and we have developed a tailor made insurance policy, to meet your self storage insurance needs.
