Terms and Conditions

These Terms & Conditions form a legally binding agreement between Stowzi Ltd trading as Stowzi Self Storage (“Stowzi Self Storage”, “we”, “us” or “our”) and the person or business making the booking (“you” or “your”).

The Stowzi Self Storage facility you are booking (“Facility”), your storage unit (“Unit”), start date, Storage Fee, promotional offer (if any), StoreProtect selection and other booking details will be shown during the booking process, in your booking confirmation and/or in your online account.

By completing your booking, you confirm that you have read, understood and agree to these Terms & Conditions.

1. THE STORAGE AGREEMENT

1.1 We grant you a licence to use the Unit allocated to you solely for the storage of permitted goods (“Goods”) during the Storage Period.

1.2 This Agreement is a licence only. It does not create a lease, tenancy or landlord and tenant relationship.

1.3 You warrant that you own the Goods stored in the Unit or are legally authorised by the owner to store and deal with them.

1.4 We do not take possession of your Goods and do not have knowledge of the contents of your Unit.

1.5 Unit sizes and dimensions are approximate. You are responsible for satisfying yourself that the Unit is suitable for the Goods you intend to store.

2. STORAGE PERIOD AND BILLING

2.1 Unless your booking expressly states otherwise, storage operates on a rolling monthly basis.

2.2 Storage Fees are payable monthly in advance.

2.3 We may advertise Unit prices using a weekly equivalent for comparison purposes. Where a weekly equivalent is displayed, the monthly Storage Fee is calculated using 52 weeks divided by 12 months, being approximately 4.33 weeks per month.

2.4 The actual monthly amount payable will be shown during the booking process and/or in your booking confirmation.

2.5 You must maintain a valid payment method throughout the Storage Period and ensure all sums due under this Agreement are paid on time.

3. REFUNDABLE SECURITY DEPOSIT

3.1 A £50 refundable security deposit is payable when you enter into this Agreement.

3.2 The deposit is held as security for amounts properly due to us under this Agreement.

3.3 We may deduct from the deposit:

a. unpaid Storage Fees or other charges properly due;

b. cleaning or rubbish-removal costs;

c. costs of repairing damage caused by you or your authorised users;

d. reasonable costs associated with Goods left behind or abandoned; and

e. other reasonable costs arising from your breach of this Agreement.

3.4 The £50 deposit does not limit your liability. If the amount properly due to us exceeds the deposit, you remain responsible for the balance.

3.5 Any remaining deposit balance will be refunded electronically within 21 days after the Agreement ends, once the Unit has been vacated and your account has been settled.

4. PAYMENT AND LATE PAYMENT

4.1 Storage Fees, StoreProtect Charges where selected, and any other agreed charges must be paid on or before their Due Date.

4.2 If an amount remains unpaid for 7 calendar days after the Due Date, we may charge a £15 Late Payment Fee.

4.3 Only one £15 Late Payment Fee will normally be charged in respect of the same missed monthly payment.

4.4 You are also responsible for reasonable costs actually incurred by us in collecting overdue sums or enforcing this Agreement.

4.5 If money remains due to us, we may restrict or suspend your access to the Facility and/or Unit until your account is brought up to date.

4.6 Restricting access does not end this Agreement or stop Storage Fees and other applicable charges from continuing to accrue.

5. PROMOTIONS AND SPECIAL OFFERS

5.1 From time to time Stowzi Self Storage may offer introductory prices, discounts, promotional rates or other special offers (“Offers”).

5.2 The exact Offer applicable to your booking, including the promotional price or discount, duration, eligible Unit types, any minimum stay and any other specific conditions, will be shown to you before you complete your booking.

5.3 The Offer accepted during your booking forms part of this Agreement.

5.4 Unless the specific Offer expressly states otherwise:

i. any minimum stay or other commitment applying to an Offer will be clearly stated before booking; and

j. after the promotional period ends, the applicable standard Storage Fee will apply unless the Agreement is ended in accordance with these Terms.

5.5 We may amend, suspend or withdraw an Offer in relation to future bookings.

5.6 An Offer already accepted as part of a confirmed booking will continue for its agreed promotional period, provided you continue to meet the conditions of that Offer.

5.7 Where an Offer includes a minimum stay, you remain responsible for the Storage Fees and other charges applying during that minimum period, subject to your statutory cancellation rights.

5.8 We may withdraw any future, unearned part of an Offer where you materially breach the Offer conditions or fail to make a payment required to qualify for or continue receiving the Offer.

5.9 We will not retrospectively alter a promotional Storage Fee already validly earned by you unless the specific Offer clearly provides for this and we are legally entitled to do so.

5.10 The promotional terms displayed and accepted when you book determine the exact Offer applying to your booking.
