Paterson Data has been in the storage industry since 1848 and over the past 10 years has become specialists in hard copy document storage and records management for private, public and charitable organisations in Scotland. With a specific focus on security measures, Paterson Self Storage is the only facility in Paisley, Glasgow with the latest Duo Monitored Security, Category P1 fire detection, controlled access and security vetted staff.
The recent growth and increased consumer awareness of the self storage market has propelled managing director, Robert Paterson to expand his portfolio to include self storage units and the lesser known mobile storage units.
Self storage is a service that most peoples are aware of. People take their storage items such as furniture or office equipment to a warehouse where they are packed away in storage units and stored in a secure facility. In the case of Paterson self storage, they provide 8ft high, 7ft deep by 5ft wide wooden crates which can fit approximately four sofas if placed vertically within the unit.
“The storage units are available for both business and public use. We have a secure warehouse which is completely separate from our current document storage area.”
In contrast, mobile storage, an idea originating in America, is relatively new to Scotland but one that brings with it tremendous benefits to customers. A trailer containing a wooden storage unit is delivered directly to a home or businesses and packed by the customer.
“Our research showed that often people do not have the means to easily transport their belongings to our warehouse. Whilst they could hirer a van, it could be the first time they have driven anything larger than a car. The only other option is employing a removal company which would of course dramatically increase the cost. ”
With mobile storage there is no need for van hire or removal companies. The customer can simply pack the storage unit contained within the trailer and wait for Paterson to pick up the trailer and unload the unit into the warehouse for secure safekeeping.
Because the trailer is tall rather than long, it means that it will fit easily into a driveway or can be parked on the side of the road. The unit is also very spacious, with enough room to store the equivalent of approximately four sofas when placed vertically.
