All of your FAQ’s
How are files and documents kept secure in storage units?
At Attic Self Storage, your files and documents are kept secure through controlled access and monitored facilities. Our sites are equipped with 24-hour CCTV and motion sensors, helping to protect your records, especially if they are sensitive or not accessed often.
You can also manage access to your unit through app controlled locks, allowing you to grant entry remotely to trusted people even if you are not on site.
How can I organise large volumes of documents in storage?
- Review your files and remove anything you no longer need. Sort documents by retention period, such as short-term, long-term or permanent, to help stay compliant and avoid unnecessary storage.
- Group documents into categories, such as finance, legal or HR, and organise them in chronological order within each category.
- Pack documents in sturdy archive boxes with secure lids and clear labels so you can quickly identify what's inside. If you need supplies, we sell boxes, tape and other packing materials on-site.
- Create an index or spreadsheet showing which documents are stored in each box. This makes it much easier to locate files without searching through multiple boxes.
- Review your archive regularly and update, remove or reorganise documents as needed to keep your storage system organised and easy to manage.
How should I store documents long term?
For long term document storage, it helps to keep everything in a cool, dry and dark environment to reduce the risk of mould, fading or paper damage over time. Spaces like basements or lofts can be more prone to changes in temperature and humidity, so a clean, well ventilated storage unit is often a more reliable option.
For particularly important documents, such as legal papers or certificates, some people choose to use a fire resistant box or store them in a secure off site unit for extra peace of mind. Using acid free folders and archive boxes can also help protect documents over time, reducing the chance of yellowing or becoming brittle.
A simple extra tip is to remove staples and paperclips before storing, as this helps prevent rust marks and keeps your documents in better condition.
What is document storage?
Physical document or archive storage is a way to keep important papers, files and records in a safe place outside your office. It helps businesses free up valuable space while keeping documents easy to access when needed. While many documents are now stored digitally, physical storage is still essential for original copies required for legal, regulatory or historical purposes.
Whether you are making room for more team members or simply dealing with too much paperwork, our storage units provide a secure, fire safe environment for document storage.
