Self Storage in Preston - Serving Central Lancashire & the Ribble Valley

Our Guild Trade Centre store on Ribbleton Lane sits just east of Preston city centre, serving customers across Ribbleton, Fulwood, Ashton, Longridge, Bamber Bridge, Leyland, and the wider Central Lancashire area. We're well placed for the M6 (Junction 31) and M55, and close to Preston's busy mainline station.

Preston has a proud and distinctive history. The city was granted its first charter in 1179 and has held a market continuously for over 800 years - the Guild Merchant, celebrated every 20 years, is one of England's oldest civic traditions and gives the Guild Trade Centre its name. Preston was a major centre of the textile industry during the Industrial Revolution and later became an important hub for aerospace and advanced manufacturing. Today, BAE Systems at nearby Samlesbury and Warton employs thousands across the region and is one of the largest defence manufacturing sites in Europe. The University of Central Lancashire (UCLan) in the city centre is one of the largest universities in the UK, with over 38,000 students.

The city has undergone significant regeneration in recent years, with the Flag Market and historic Harris Museum and Art Gallery at its heart. Avenham Park and Miller Park along the River Ribble are among the finest Victorian parks in the North West, and the nearby Ribble Valley offers some of Lancashire's most scenic countryside - the Forest of Bowland is an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty just a short drive away.

Whatever brings you to us - a house move, a business need, or simply running out of space - we're here to help. Free on-site parking, drive-up access, and no long-term commitment.

The guys at Safestore ...

The guys at Safestore Preston were great to deal with, first with an informative phone call from John who explained how things worked in great detail and a great first month offer which I took advantage of. Then my first meeting when I moved my stuff in was with the lovely Leah who was very welcoming and even made me a coffee. The unit itself (100 sq ft) was spotlessly clean and the perfect size for the job. I did extend my stay into the second month, which was no problem, however I did mix up my leaving date, which I thought was Feb 25; but should have been Feb 22. I actually cleared the unit on Feb 23, a day late but on hearing that it was a genuine mistake on my part, the guys waived any further payments, which was kind of them. All in all, I would definitely recommend Safestore Preston.
