24 hour Security: Most of the Sydney self storage units will offer either a 24 hour security patrol or a 24 hour security camera service to deter thieves and monitor the lockers and units at any time day or night.

Insurance: Unfortunately no matter what the security precautions are undertaken by these storage companies, the worst can happen on occasions and you need to double check prior to storing your valuable goods that the storage units you have chosen possess required insurance cover for probable theft or loss of valuable belongings.
