It's very nice storage for smaller and big items. Very safe and clean. The staff is very kind and helpful. The location is good even for people using mainly public transport. Love my storage 👍❤️
Best driver ever
John was very patient and friendly throughout our moving out process. He gave us time checks so we knew how much longer we had to load/unload. Couldn’t ask for a better experience!
As someone who’s arranged storage from further afield from Ardwick, Manchester, for my son, trust is very important and I can honestly say they are outstanding in all aspects from helpful advice to fantastic communication. I’ve used them for the past few years and I can’t recommend them highly enough. They are so friendly and the service is faultless. I wouldn’t trust anyone else. Thanks so much - you take the hassle away. That’s important. Best wishes to particularly S. (probably can’t mention names- assistant manager - ) and all the team. - Patricia M
Very friendly and informative staff. Have used two years in a row now and been very impressed. Affordable pricing for great customer service. Made use of the van service as well and staff member Tommy was very helpful in helping move things. Would recommend!!!
Recently needed a storage place for a uni move and i absolutely reccomend these guys. Siobhan and john were amazing, helped me with any questions i had and were super friendly! Definately would come back to in future especially with the included free driver offer they do :)
Very nice staff, and made moving out of my accommodation a lot easier.John, in particular, was very helpful at explaining how everything works and was very nice and chatty.I would definitely recommend them, if you are uni student, like me!
Apex have been so great for me as a student using their pallet storage option. Such easy communication with everything well explained. And really lovely and helpful staff! Thank you!
Awesome customer service.
All the staff I encountered were great - friendly and professional. Happy with the service.
Staff were lovely and so helpful throughout the whole process, great communication. Everything was made very clear to me and at the end of renting the unit all my items were safe and sound.Would definitely store items here again :))
Very well priced and friendly storage facility. Also very accommodating and punctual when helping to move our furniture. Tommy was a great guy who helped a lot and Siobhan and Beckie were fantastic with the admin side of things. Would strongly recommend this storage facility.
Amazing service – couldn’t recommend more!We used this storage unit service to store our uni stuff before moving into our new house, and they were absolutely brilliant from start to finish. We were honestly quite stressed and unsure of what to do when they arrived, but the team was incredibly patient and helpful, which made such a difference. They guided us through everything with no judgement and made the whole process so much smoother.A special shoutout to John, our driver – he was so lovely, friendly, and welcoming. He really helped put us at ease during what could have been a chaotic day. Honestly, we’re so grateful for the support and kindness we received. Would definitely use them again and recommend to anyone looking for reliable and understanding storage help!
Just leaving a comment to say that Paul has been excellent & very helpful.
The service at Apex Ardwick was superb - professional, friendly and most efficient. Team members Siobhan and Beckie were extremely helpful and courteous. I highly recommend this storage unit.
Very quick and easy overall, used the van service and the driver John was very friendly and helpful with explaining things.
Efficient and well organised, very impressed with the service we’ve received to date. John (our van driver) turned up early and made moving my son’s uni stuff painless and easy. Highly recommend
My driver John was an amazing bloke and very helpful during the moving process. Lovely staff all around
I’ve used Apex ardwick before and recently ive swiched storage units back to apex. John the driver is great and friendly and very informative. I really appeciated his help he came 15 minute early even watched the van while i was moving things. I appreciate how thoughtful and accommodating staff are at apex especially becki who signed me up and took her time explaining things to me.
I have recently vacated my storage unit at Apex Hulme and it was a very quick and easy process. I would recommend this company, the staff were helpful and friendly throughout, especially Rachael. The unit itself was clean, felt very secure and professional. I would come back here if I need storage again in the future.
Very professional company with reasonable prices. I was able to view different sized units before signing, and Beckie and Siobhan were helpful throughout. We also used the free van service, our driver John was great!
Great service and personnel. Special thanks to John for help with carrying the goods and the reception team for a great help
Had John help me out moving my things into a storage here at the weekend. Great guy was really helpful. Never used one of these before and really couldn't reccomend this place highly enough.
Amazing staff and storage. Due to personal circumstances, I wasn't able to provide certain documents. The staff were so helpful, understanding and got the storage set up. A big shout out to Hanaat. What a lovely guy. First day of arriving, he offered us all drinks and brought chocolate for the kids. He was very thorough in showing us around the storage and how it worked. He's lovely to chat to and really just brightened up my day when I was going through a difficult time. A shout out to Nathan, again amazing staff member. Sorted my storage out super fast. And finally Rachael for her lovely, kind words on departure. I will be sure to use Apex again and recommend. X
First time using self storage ardwick and can say they were all very nice and helpful including the driver John, I would use them again and would definitely recommend them to anyone that needs storage 10/10
More than happy with my experience with Apex, they were a perfect solution when I needed a flexible amount of storage at short notice. Big thanks to Aaron, Siobhan and John for all their guidance and assistance. Come here to support a local business and a great team.
I’ve used Apex ardwick before and they are always good but when I came recently to switch storage units I was going to move all of my items by myself into the next unit and Siobhan who was working there by herself ended up helping me move all of my stuff and while I was sorting everything out she would come and check on me if I had any questions or if I needed anymore help. Really appreciated how thoughtful and accommodating she was and I hope she gets a bonus because she was amazing. Thank you!!!!!! Siobhan :)))
Helped a friend move a range of items into storage due to a house move. My review relates to Tommy the chap who was the driver, part of Apex's 2 hour van/person support service. We got everything done at the house end and Tommy played an absolute blinder at the Apex storage end, empting the van as we moved everything into the storage unit. We met the two hour free part (only just) and Tom played an integral part, so may thanks fella for helping out and doing it with a smile on your face...
The service was great all the things were intact and stored safely. The price was fair and acceptable. Very flexible storage plan and convenient to move in and out. Van service was very handy and the driver John was very nice and courteous. Great experience!
I had a seamless experience with Apex Ardwick Storage. As a student graduating in September, it was difficult to pack and move everything back home, so I chose Apex Ardwick (conveniently located near the university) for my storage needs. After a month, I moved all my belongings to another city, and they were incredibly helpful with bringing my luggage down and even recommended some movers. Plus, I was refunded for the weeks I didn’t use within a week. Highly recommend! Thanks to Siobhan :)
Tommy was lovely and so helpful! Would be 5/5 if it were just down to him and the first driver who helped us! However, as a company, they use an awful lot of plastic, with each crate being wrapped in black plastic sheets. It would be great to see them find a more sustainable solution.
Amazing service from Tommy and John who were extremely helpful during both moving in and out. 5/5 stars
Perfect experience using Apex for student storage. The pallete storage system is exactly what I needed and a good price. Amazing costumer service from when I dropped stuff off to when I picked it up. Aaron who helped with thepaperwork was super helpful and friendly and my van driver Tommy was fantastic! Thank you.
We were given a free van and a very friendly and helpful driver, John. We managed to get all of our stuff in one trip and the storage was more than adequate.
John was very helpful when I was moving out and made the whole process go smoothly.
John was our driver and he was very nice and helpful, the storage facility itself is very clean and offer good prices.
The team here is absolutely lovely!! Tommy seen me struggling with unpacking and flag packing 166 boxes and offered to help to make the process easier for me it really helped in getting everything sorted with such a short delivery window. Becky the manager always helping me out to find the right unit space for all my stuff and always there to answer any questions I have! Been using this space for 3years the space the cleanliness of the area, pricing is definitely the best available!!
Friendly and helpful staff. Parking could be improved.
Awesome move in experience, everything done smooth and swift, John was a legend, very helpful with organising the van to keep my stuff safe on the journey even prepped with blankets to wrap around the fragile stuff. 10/5 stars!
Very good operation, John came and helped me move my stuff out of the house and into storage, extremely friendly and efficient service.Would highly reccomend
Great storage centre! The man and van service is fantastic, John was very very helpful and made the day go much smoother.
Very friendly, especially the driver John who was very helpful!
It’s so good. Staffs there are all so nice!
Very pleasant experience of moving possessions into self-storage. Definite perk with Apex enabling free van hire for two hours on the day.John, the van driver, was punctual, professional, friendly and helpful in ensuring my belongings were safely packed and transported across.
Great customer and very friendly staff. John was especially helpful.
Great service went above and beyond especially from John.
