Storage giant Lock Stock adds three more sites to their growing roster

Wales’s biggest self-storage company just got even bigger with the announcement that they have added three more storage parks to their roster.

Denbigh-based Lock Stock Self-Storage, the UK’s largest container-based storage business, are opening new Deeside sites at Sandycroft, Saltney and Flint.

The triple opening will take the number of containers on Lock Stock’s sites to over 3,000 on 21 storage parks which stretch from Holyhead on Anglesey along the North Wales coast down to Shrewsbury and Welshpool in Powys.

The new sites are at the former Whites storage park on the Glendale Trading Estate at Sandycroft, adjoining Go Outdoors on River Lane, Saltney, where they already have an existing site nearby, and at Coleshill, Flint, alongside the A548 North Wales Coast road.

Director Nick Powell started the company in 1998 with his brother Shon as an off-shoot of the family’s well-known Craig Bragdy ceramic design and installation company.

He said: “We are responding to demand.

“We are finding that our existing sites are receiving more and more enquiries for storage space and we are reacting to meet that demand.

“We also look to see where the demand is coming from and if it is from somewhere we don’t already have a storage park or where our existing site is at or near capacity then we look at finding a suitable site.

“Having a base at Sandycroft gives us a storage park close to the A494, the main route into North Wales from the North West of England, which will be attractive to businesses because of the excellent communications it provides across the region.”
