A local, independent alternative to national chains.
There are national self-storage brands with sites in East Sussex — but they come with high rents, long notice periods, insurance requirements, and admin fees.

The self storage option East Sussex residents actually use
Self storage in East Sussex comes in two broad forms: traditional self storage buildings, run mainly by national chains, and container storage — large steel shipping containers on an open, accessible yard. Chock-a-Block Storage in Bexhill-on-Sea offers both options, at prices that consistently undercut the national brands by a significant margin.
The national chain model is well established — familiar orange or red logos, large buildings in or near town centres, a range of unit sizes from locker-sized to room-sized. But there are trade-offs: compulsory insurance, administration fees, minimum contract lengths, and monthly rates that increase over time. For a comparable volume of storage, you'll typically pay £250–£350 or more per month at a national facility. At Chock-a-Block, our 20ft containers — which hold roughly the same volume as a single garage — start from £150 per month, all-in.
Our site at 5 Brett Drive, Bexhill-on-Sea serves customers from across the county: Hastings and St Leonards-on-Sea are 10 minutes away; Eastbourne is 20–25 minutes on the A259; Battle and the Weald are 15–20 minutes via the A269; Rye is 25–30 minutes along the coast; Lewes and the areas around the Downs are 35–40 minutes via the A27 and A259. For most East Sussex residents, the drive is short — and the monthly saving makes it easily worthwhile.
Every storage unit at Chock-a-Block includes 24-hour access every single day of the year, 24/7 CCTV coverage across the entire yard, drive-up access for container customers, secure perimeter fencing and gating, and free on-site parking. There are no minimum contracts — you rent month to month for as long or as short a period as you need. No admin fees, no security deposit surprises, no exit charges.
Our customers include people moving house across East Sussex, homeowners clearing properties for renovation or extension work, landlords storing furniture between tenancies, tradespeople needing accessible tool and equipment storage, small and medium businesses managing overflow stock and archives, and individuals downsizing who aren't ready to let go of everything yet. Whatever the reason for needing storage, the process is the same: call us, get a clear price, and be set up within 24–48 hours.
Self storage in East Sussex — questions answered
How much does self storage cost in East Sussex?
At Chock-a-Block Storage, self storage starts from £100 per month for an internal unit and £150 per month for a full 20ft shipping container. There are no setup fees, no admin charges, and no minimum contract. National self-storage chains in East Sussex typically charge £200–£350 per month for equivalent space.
What is the difference between a storage container and a self-storage unit?
A self-storage unit typically refers to a room inside a building — usually climate controlled and accessed via corridors and lifts. A storage container is a steel shipping container you access directly from outside, at ground level. Containers offer drive-up access, more space per pound, and the same security — just with a more practical, outdoor-access setup.
