One of the UK\u2019s leading container storage providers has successfully completed the purchase and expansion of their award-winning site in Cardiff.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

blue self storage Ltd said the strategic acquisition marked another milestone in the company’s rapid growth and commitment to serving both domestic and commercial customers.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The Llanishen facility, situated on the Ty Glas Industrial Estate in North Cardiff, has expanded from three-quarters of an acre to just over an acre, now boasting 181 self-storage units of various sizes. Earlier this year, blue self storage entered into discussions with Millgrove North Limited and agreed to purchase the site, acquiring an additional 0.4 acre (1618 sqm). Now occupying 1.1 acres (4580 sqm), this expansion has facilitated a 33% increase in space and a 75% increase in unit capacity while maintaining spacious roads and landscaped areas.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Dean Daly, Operations Director, said:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe additional land has allowed us to reconfigure and optimize the site. This expansion has exceeded our expectations and continues to perform impressively.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
