the sheeplands hug
more than just self storage

Share this post:
At Sheeplands Self Storage, we often say that what we offer goes beyond containers, rooms and padlocks. Our customers have given it a name of its own – the Sheeplands Hug.
It is not something you can put on a price list, but it is something you feel the moment you arrive.
What Is the Sheeplands Hug?
The Sheeplands Hug is that reassuring sense that someone genuinely cares. It is being greeted by a friendly face, having things explained properly, and never feeling rushed or like “just another number”.
For many people, storage comes at a time of change – moving house, renovating, downsizing, bereavement, separation, or growing a business. These moments can feel stressful, emotional, or overwhelming. The Sheeplands Hug is our way of making the practical side feel lighter.
A Family-Run Business, Done Properly
We are a family-run self storage business based in Wargrave, Berkshire, and that shapes everything we do. We take pride in knowing our customers, understanding their situations, and offering flexible, honest advice – even if that means suggesting a smaller unit or a shorter stay.
No hard sell. No pressure. Just practical help from people who care.
When Storage Is About More Than Space
For some customers, the Sheeplands Hug shows up during a difficult life event – helping them store belongings during a bereavement or divorce, or giving them time to make decisions without feeling rushed.
For others, it is during happier changes – a house move, a new baby, a growing business, or a long-planned renovation. Either way, the feeling is the same: support, understanding, and a calm place to land.
Little Things That Make a Big Difference
The Sheeplands Hug is found in the small things:
Taking time to explain options clearly
Being flexible when plans change
Keeping the site clean, safe and welcoming
Remembering names, faces, and stories
Treating your belongings with respect
These details matter, especially when life feels busy or uncertain.
Rooted in the Local Community
As a local self storage site in Berkshire, we are proud to be part of the Wargrave community and surrounding villages. Supporting local events, charities, and customers is not a marketing exercise for us – it is simply who we are.
Many of our customers come to us through word of mouth, and we think that says a lot. People remember how they were treated, not just what they paid.
Storage with a Human Touch
At its heart, the Sheeplands Hug is about kindness and care in an industry that can sometimes feel transactional. We believe storage should feel safe, straightforward, and human.
So whether you are storing a few boxes or the contents of a whole house, for a month or a few years, you will always be met with the same approach: friendly, supportive, and genuinely helpful.
If you are looking for self storage in Wargrave, Berkshire, and want somewhere that feels a little more personal, we would love to welcome you – and give you a Sheeplands Hug.

Following a house sale and subsequent gear shift in life, I currently live a rather nomadic lifestyle, travelling around the country dog&house-sitting, and so have been storing my goods & chattels at Sheeplands in Wargrave for a few years now. My experience of this lovely local family firm has been unequivocally positive - the location is peaceful and safe, the security strong and completely trustworthy, the access arrangements convenient and easy to navigate and the team nothing but kind, friendly and helpful. As individuals, everyone is exceptionally warm and welcoming, and as a professional organisation, they have been so flexible, supportive and generous as my needs have evolved and as I have become a longer-term client. They do what they do so very well, and I have no hesitation at all in recommending them to the world. All of it.Posted on Jayne ParsonsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. All the staff were really helpful and friendly the facilities are great - just what we needed.

The staff are friendly and helpful. Normal access to the storage unit is very good (7.00am until 9.00pm). The units themselves are very clean and actually look quite new. There are various trolleys and sack lifts for moving bulkier or heavy items. All in all very good experience so far
