The Pink Storage ´Pinky Promise’| Pink Storage’s Charter for Self Storage Customers

In keeping with it's aim of keeping things simple and streamlined for customers, Pink Storage has even gone as far as summarising important parts of its terms and conditions as its 'Pinky Promise'
The Pink Storage ´Pinky Promise’| Pink Storage’s Charter for Self Storage Customers

'Terms and Conditions', whilst a really important part of any business, effectively a contract, can seem full of legal terms and minutiae. We're no different to any other company in that these have to cover all kinds of legal eventuallities. But we're prepared to make even this seemingly boring, complex necessity easy.

Dubbed our ‘Pinky Promise, we at Pink Storage have introduced a customer charter: an added part to our normal terms and conditions to make clear our commitment to storers at all of our 22 (and growing in number) container storage sites.

If you're not familiar with the expression, a 'pinky promise' is a promise made by intertwining the 'pinky fingers' (little fingers) of two people. It's intended as a more sincere and binding promise than a regular spoken one, indicating a strong commitment. Joining together two 'pinkies' is symbolic. It's a gesture that signals an intention to be bound to keep it.

At Pink Storage our 'Pinky Promise' aims to keep things simple and streamlined for storers.

The Pink Storage Promise to Customers (What you can expect)

This 'Pinky Promise' to our self storage customers at Pink includes:

Safety and security

Pink Storage’s safe, secure storage promise includes:

24/7 CCTV

24/7 CCTV surveillance acts as both as a deterrent and as a safety measure for people and belongings on site.

ANPR (Automated Number Plate Recognition)

ANPR (Automated Number Plate Recognition) ensures site access is properly controlled and that only authorised vehicles can enter.

Access to Dedicated Storage Space

At Pink Storage, we have worked hard to ensure immediate access to your storage unit when you join us. It’s possible to sign up and have access to a dedicated storage space within minutes.

"Sign up, get your pin code, ready to go"

This simple, easy system delivers access to your storage unit, every day of the week.

(We do, incidentally, close for a few hours in the very late night/early morning period. Data across the self storage industry has shown that these hours are the most likely to experience any security breaches, so even this simple act is designed for your security. We can, of course, arrange out of hours contact if required, but this is rarely needed, and the apparent limitation is well worth the extra security that it delivers.)

Pink Pricing

There are numerous factors that affect how much you pay for self storage,

Often we at Pink Storage will offer special prices to our early customers on a new site for a fixed period. However, even after the initial period there will be no hidden fees or unexpected charges, and our pricing remains competitive.

Moreover, we promise a range of flexible payment options to suit your budget – weekly, monthly etc. - and Pink Storage won’t tie you in to long minimum rental periods.

A few genuine quotes from TrustPilot reviews include:

“New units and decent price”

“The pricing was fair for the quality of service provided.”

“Getting a great deal for 8 weeks was really helpful.”

Cleanliness

Your container storage unit will be thoroughly cleaned when you rent it.

A few quotes from TrustPilot, which obviously make us proud, include:

“Nice clean unit.”

“Units are clean and well laid out.”

“Containers are clean and dry, great value…”

“Clean and tidy inside the storage container and the surrounding areas"

Duties of Storers

The Spanish have a concept of ‘Rights and Duties’ – for every right you have, there’s a corresponding duty. At Pink Storage, we like this concept.  The promises we’ve made above, designed to keep you and your belongings safe and cared for, come with some corresponding duties on your part as a storer. They – like your rights - are in our terms and conditions, but essentially can be summarised as:

Considering Other Storers' Convenience and Safety

Our terms and conditions of storage include not storing things that could put other storers at risk, including flammable materials/ liquids, weapons, chemicals or toxic waste – in short things that could put others at risk; not storing anything illegal or any live animals;  and generally thinking about others, like  avoiding anything really smelly and keeping noise to reasonable levels.

Keep the communal areas clean, safe and accessible

Storers should follow site rules to help us keep the site clean, safe and accessible for both them and for other storers. That might include things like disposing of rubbish safely and off site, not blocking routes into the site etc – common sense really.

Inform us first if you experience any problems or have any issues

At Pink Storage we value our TrustPilot score of 4.7/5 based on more than two thousand reviews.

We’d like this, of course, to stay good - and get even better - so we ask that our customers tell us first if they encounter any issues, and offer us the chance to put things right should anything go wrong.
