Tools and equipment can be a big investment for a contractor or tradie

Alan Storage from Kiwi Self Storage - Newlands

You need to keep your investment secure but at the same time have the right tools when you need them. You might be between jobs and your stuff is taking up room at home or in the workshop you could be using for something else.

Speaking of home, you neighbour's van was broken into last week and he lost his tools and a lot of materials that will take time to replace. Plus you cant park it outside your house anymore as your street looks like Wilson Parking.

Another issue is that you work on several different projects during the day and it takes a long time to drive back to base to pick up the materials and right tools for the next job.

Where Self Storage Comes In.

Kiwi self Storage has five storage facilities in Auckland and Wellington. Our facilities are secure, dry and conveniently located close to major highways or roads. There are several ways that renting a storage unit can be the right move for you:

- Your tools and business inventory is safely secured behind electric fences with coded gate entry and CCTV monitoring. No more worry about items left in your van or on site overnight.

- You can store at a facility that is centrally located compared to where you work, meaning you can easily come back to pick up more materials or tools during the day without wasting time in traffic.

- Easy access with undercover loading and unloading

- Have materials or items couriered to your unit (conditions apply)

- You have full control over access to your unit - you provide the padlock

- You can scale the unit size up or down at any time to match the needs of your business

- You can install shelving to make the most of your unit.

- After one month you are only charged on a daily basis. Simply provide notice if you wish to move out.

- Insurance available

To find out more contact us on 0800 58 57 56 to speak to our helpful staff. You can arrange to come in and discuss your needs with them and have a look around our facilities. Or have a look at our website and contact us for an easy quote.

Gas fireplace repair?

Liam from Khandallah

Hi all, so just as it’s starting to get colder our gas fireplace has decided that this is a good time to break…. It starts up okay, pilot light gets going and the whole fire goes for about 10-20 seconds then it makes a ‘click’ sort of sounds and shuts off….we think it’s some sort of … View moreHi all, so just as it’s starting to get colder our gas fireplace has decided that this is a good time to break…. It starts up okay, pilot light gets going and the whole fire goes for about 10-20 seconds then it makes a ‘click’ sort of sounds and shuts off….we think it’s some sort of emergency shut off.
So now we have to fix it and wondered if anybody knows of a certified gas repairer who could possibly do that at a reasonable price…?
Thank you for any suggestions.
