Trade storage

Trade and equipment storage

Your ute isn't a shed, and your garage isn't a warehouse. A storage unit gives you a base for tools, materials and gear between jobs.

Why tradies use a unit

Buy materials in bulk and store them until the job's ready
Keep the ute empty overnight so nothing walks off it
Store scaffolding, ladders and big tools you don't need every day
Hold leftover materials for the next job instead of the skip

Set it up for quick in and out

Racks on the walls
Heavy-duty shelving for boxes of fixings, power tools and consumables.
Long stuff overhead or on one side
Timber, pipe and ladders along one wall, flat and supported.
Daily kit by the door
What you grab most sits right inside so you're in and out in minutes.

Access and location

Ferrymead is on the eastern side of the city, close to Ferry Road, the Port Hills and the Lyttelton tunnel road. That suits tradies working across Woolston, Bromley, Linwood and the hill and coastal suburbs. You get access 24 hours, 7 days, so early starts and late finishes are no problem.

Fuel, gas bottles and chemicals stay out of the unit. Run small engines dry before you store them.
