Self storage has grown in popularity over the last few years which has led to more self storage facilities to choose from. We are going to explain why ours is the best storage in Bedford. 

Over the last twenty years, the self storage industry has seen a large amount of growth. The Self Storage Association UK Annual Report 2025 found that there are now 2915 self storage facilities within the UK. 

When there are a great deal of self storage facilities in your area and you aren’t sure what constitutes the best self storage, you can find yourself renting self storage that is inadequate for your needs. 

Within this article, we will break it down for you as to why ours is the best storage in Bedford. 

Exceptional 5* Customer Service 

Within our Bedford store (and across all of our stores), we offer exceptional customer service. When we speak with our customers or look through our reviews, one of the biggest pluses with our self storage is our excellent teams and the customer service they offer. 

As Tracy has said in their Trustpilot review:

“Maddie and the team at Bedford have been so very helpful, friendly, and have made what was a stressful time so much easier to navigate. I can’t thank them enough and highly recommend them.”

Maddie is not alone in his praise for our customer service. Francesca Toman, owner of Ches & Co, has found our teams to be extremely kind and helpful:

“The team is brilliant. They are genuinely so kind, generous with their time and help. They are so friendly as well. It genuinely feels like they are an extension of our team which we didn’t expect, but it’s invaluable to us.” 

This is a common theme across all our stores and we truly feel our teams are one of the biggest reasons that we can confidently say that we offer the best storage in the local area. 

Competitive Prices And No Hidden Fees 

With our storage in Bedford, when you phone up to enquire about a storage unit, you will be told a price. This is the price you will pay. There will be no sneaky price increases once you sign your rental agreement. 

We know this is not the case for some of our competitors. Often they tell their customers a price and very quickly that price is raised by a significant amount. 

If you store with us for a long period of time, you may see some price increases which correspond with the rising rates of running a self storage facility but our Bedford team will always tell you about this well before it happens so you can choose whether you want to continue to store with us – almost all of our customers do! And, if you have any issues with the price increase, they will do all they can to make the situation work for you. 

We always try to make sure our prices are competitive so we can offer you the best prices for the best storage. 

Variety Of Storage Units Available

Ours is the best storage because we have such a high variety of storage units available. In our Bedford store, our storage units range from 10 sq ft to 300 sq ft. 

Having such a large variety of storage units allows us to help a larger amount of local people which is what Cinch Self Storage is all about. 

Flexible Rental Agreements

Another way in which we offer the best storage in the area is that we offer completely flexible rental agreements. 

With our flexible rental contracts, you can change your storage unit – upsize or downsize – whenever you need to. 

If you are using your storage unit for an e-commerce or retail business, you can add extra storage to cover you during a busy period, such as Christmas, and then go back to your regular storage once it is over. This proved to be really helpful for Florence Ledwith, founder and owner of Envy Shoes:

“The flexibility is massive for us. Say it got to Christmas and we’d totally run out of space, I could take on something else for just a short period of time. You don’t get that anywhere else.” 

To change your storage or to add to your storage for a short period of time, you just need to have a chat with the Bedford team and they will make it happen as quickly as possible. 

Along with this, you are also free to leave before your rental period has expired. We just need you to give us a short period of notice.This has proven to be really helpful with many of our customers, including Caroline Starling who has this to say about our prices and the flexibility we have on offer in all our stores: 

“Prices are really competitive & with the first 12 weeks at 50% off it really is quite a saving. Plus they offer so much flexibility on contracts too. Well worth enquiring.”

When you rent a storage space with us, it will always work with you and your needs. You will never be trapped paying for a storage unit that no longer works for you or that you no longer need. 

Convenient Location

When we are looking to open a new store, we always go for the location that will be most convenient to local people and businesses. Our Bedford store is no different. Located at Woburn Road Industrial Estate, it is just a short 13 minute drive from the centre of Bedford. 

This location is not only convenient when it comes to driving to your storage unit but, we are also conveniently located for other amenities such as Co-op Food Bedford on St John’s Street and the Shell Garage on the first roundabout on Woburn Road. 

We know location is important to many of our customers as it gives them a high level of convenience when they are visiting their storage unit but the SSA UK 2025 report has shown that more people are happier to travel for a longer time, if it means gaining access to the best storage in the area. 20% of people surveyed travel 11-15 min and 19% are happy to travel for as long as 30 minutes. 

We are happy to say that we offer the best storage as it is in a convenient location for the people of Bedford and the surrounding areas. 

High Level Of Security 

Last but certainly not least, ours is the best storage in Bedford because we offer such a high level of security. 

All of our storage units are equipped with an alarm and a smoke and fire detectors so your belongings will be protected from theft and environmental factors. There is 24/7 CCTV surveillance across our entire Bedford facility. 

Having high quality security features has always been a priority for us. We want you to have complete peace of mind that your belongings are safe and protected when they are stored with us. 

Along with all our security features, you can be added to our insurance policy. Home insurance often does not cover a storage unit but you can be added to our policy for a small monthly fee. This will just give you another layer of protection.
