Whatever the circumstance, whether it be moving house, redecorating, travelling, creating a home office or simply decluttering to make more space at home, we have storage units in a range of sizes to best suit your personal storage needs.

Personal Storage

We have built a facility where your prized possessions are stored in individually-alarmed units. Our fire and alarm system is monitored 24 hours a day, 7 days a week by a remote monitoring station. We also offer insurance to customers who wish to insure their goods while in storage with us.

In this era of massive uncertainty surrounding rental accommodation, it is an absolute blessing to know you can keep your personal belongings safe for a low price.I have used LSS facilities multiple times now and will use them again in the future. The move in service that is provided for free along with the ease of signing up for a unit is what makes Limerick self storage the absolute best choice to keep your things safe.I highly recommend them as I feel there is no better storage company in Limerick.
