Whether an online or a brick and mortar store, if you run a retail business, our long term storage Swindon is here to help. Read on to find out how. 

Many more people are taking the leap and starting their own business. At the start of 2025, the official business statistics from Gov.UK showed that there were 5.7 million private sector businesses. This is an increase, from 2024, of 3.5%. 

A report conducted by StartUp Ambition has found that the main motivators for people when starting their own business is a desire to earn extra money to keep up with the cost of living (33%). Another 33% of those surveyed wanted to monetise a skill or a hobby. 

Whatever your reasoning for starting your retail business, we are excited to tell you about our long term storage Swindon and how it will help you and your business. 

Enough Room To Run Your Business 

If your business is new and/or online, you will likely have been running it from your home. This is a great place to start but you will quickly run out of room and anyone who lives with you will run out of patience. 

By using our long term storage Swindon, you will be able to have enough space to efficiently store all your stock, packing materials and equipment, to pack orders and deal with admin and returns. 

Our storage units in Swindon range from 15 sq ft to 500+ sq ft so no matter the size of your retail business, we will have a storage unit that fits your needs. 

Safe And Secure Long Term Storage Swindon

When you are running your own business, your stock and equipment is of vast importance because, without it, you have no business. When you use our long term storage Swindon, you can rest assured that your stock, equipment and/or business documents are all safe and secure. 

All of our storage units are fitted with an alarm and smoke and fire detectors, keeping your business assets safe from theft and environmental factors. There is 24/7 CCTV surveillance across our entire Swindon facility so you can have peace of mind that everything you are storing is safe with us. 

Convenient Location And Access

Our long term storage Swindon is located at Cheney Manor Industrial Estate which is just an 8 minute drive or a 30 minute walk from the centre of Swindon. 

Having a convenient location for their business storage has proven to be really beneficial to many of our current business customers as it means they don’t have a long commute to start their day at work. And, if their business is a side hustle, our Swindon facility is easily accessible from their other job. 

Along with being in a convenient location, our long term storage Swindon offers convenient access outside of our office hours. This, too, has proven to be a big help to many of our current customers like Rhianne Chin-Keow from Cley Celebrations: 

“I’ve got two kids, so my business runs around my children and my family. So opening hours are one of the main factors for me. Prior to Cinch Self Storage taking over, access was more 9-5 which was quite a constraint with me working and having children. Sometimes I just needed access at 8 o’clock at night. When I spoke to Cinch Self Storage and found out that they were now offering convenient access hours, I thought that was absolutely brilliant!”

Our convenient access hours, outside of our Swindon office hours, are at the discretion of the store team and at the customer request so, if this would be a help to you and your business, please speak with the Swindon team. 

Flexible Rental Contracts 

A big benefit of using our flexible rental contracts is that, with all our long term storage Swindon, you will get a flexible rental contract. 

A flexible rental contract means that you will be able to change your storage unit, whenever you need to. This could be when your business grows and you need to upsize your storage unit or it could be during a busy period, such as Christmas, when you add some extra storage to cover this busy time period. We are happy to do all of this for you. You just need to have a chat with the Swindon team and they will make it happen as quickly as possible. 

If you get to a point where you no longer need your long term storage Swindon, you are free to leave even if your rental period has not expired. You just need to give us a short period of notice. 

Our long term storage Swindon is not like those offered by some of our competitors. With us, “long term” does not mean you are trapped paying for a storage unit that no longer works for you or that you no longer need. When you rent storage from us, you will always be in control. 

Networking Opportunities 

There are many networking opportunities in Swindon, such as Total Business Network or Swindon Buzz Networking, but working from or storing your stock within our long term storage Swindon will mean that you have access to networking opportunities every day. 

Many local businesses use our storage so you will be able to meet and network with many different business owners. You may find people to work with, mentors or people to mentor yourself or just people who understand what it’s like to run your own business.
