ALLSAFE Mini Storage Leiderdorp: Meet the Branch Manager

The ALLSAFE Mini Storage location in Leiderdorp has been operating since 2006. Since then, many private customers and businesses from Leiden and the surrounding area have rented storage units here. Robert Vermeulen, Branch Manager at ALLSAFE Mini Storage Leiderdorp, shares his experiences.

What do people use a storage unit for?

What we are increasingly seeing is that people consider self storage a way of life. Some people simply do not have enough space at home for all their belongings, while others do have the space but prefer to use it for something else, such as a hobby room.

Moving to a larger home involves significant costs and is often more expensive than renting an affordable storage unit in Leiderdorp. With a storage unit, you can also enjoy more space at home.

Businesses can also use our storage facilities. For example, online shop owners who need space for their stock, companies that want to store their archives securely, and event agencies or market traders who need somewhere to keep their equipment. Our business mailbox with a registered business address is also an ideal solution for many companies.

Is self storage often a temporary solution as well?

Yes, that is also very common. For example, some people temporarily rent a storage unit because they are between two homes. Their old home has already been sold, but they cannot move into their new property yet. This creates a problem: where should they keep their furniture and belongings?

At ALLSAFE, they can rent a storage unit with flexible weekly cancellation. This allows them to store their belongings temporarily and collect them as soon as their new home becomes available.

We also regularly see people renovating their homes, such as converting the attic for a new purpose. The attic needs to be emptied, but there is often no space elsewhere in the house for everything that was stored there. Leaving the belongings in the attic is not an option, as they could easily become damaged during the renovation. At our storage facility, all belongings are kept safe and dry.

Have you experienced anything unusual during your years at ALLSAFE Leiderdorp?

We experience so many interesting things. The best part is that customers often share details about their personal situations.

Some customers tell us all about a long trip abroad they are planning. Others are renovating their home or going through a divorce. We also meet people who are starting their own businesses and explain what inspired them to do so. The personal stories our customers bring with them are the most memorable part of the job.

Why should people in the Leiden area rent a storage unit at ALLSAFE Mini Storage Leiderdorp?

Customer service is extremely important to us. We listen to our customers, think along with them and provide advice about the most suitable storage unit size. This ensures that everyone rents a unit that truly suits their needs.

In addition, every storage unit is electronically secured with a unique alarm, a personal access code and an individual lock. This level of security is not available at every self storage company. Your belongings are safe with us.
