Do I need to purchase your contents protection, or can I use my own insurance?
We recommend using our specialist self-storage contents protection, the Enhanced Liability Service, which provides comprehensive coverage and dedicated support in the event of a claim.
Third-party insurance policies may not offer the same level of service and assistance during the claims process. It’s important to note that not all household insurance policies automatically cover items stored in self-storage facilities.
While some policies may extend coverage for “contents away from home,” it often exclude self-storage units. If you choose to use your own insurance, it must meet specific criteria to ensure adequate protection.
The policy must provide coverage equivalent to Albert Miles Storage’s Enhanced Liability Service, including protection against common risks such as fire, theft, and water damage.
The insurance certificate or documentation should specify coverage for goods stored in any unspecified storage unit or at the specific Albert Miles Storage location, match the declared value on your storage inventory, and be in the name of the customer listed on the storage license. It’s essential to keep your insurance documentation current and comply with our requirements to ensure continuous coverage for your stored belongings.
Our store does not offer refreshments, vending machines, or kitchen facilities for customer use. We focus on providing secure and accessible storage solutions without amenities typically found in retail or office environments.
