More space in the city for storage

Selvaag Polska, the company behind the City Self-Storage located on Aleja Krakowska, has launched construction works on another facility on ul. Ostródzka in Warsaw's Praga district. The new three-storey building will have a total storage space of 4,000 sqm and it is scheduled to open in the first half of September 2007.

"When we were entering the Polish market our plans were more pessimistic and we estimated it would be ready for a second such facility two years after we opened the first City Self-Storage warehouse on ul. Krakowska," says Marzenna Tusza, general director of City Self-Storage. "Now, the first warehouse is already over 65-percent leased. The demand for such services is growing in Warsaw and we are going to have another warehouse opened within 18 months of opening the first one," she adds.

According to Tusza, units of varying sizes are available to lease, starting from 0.5 sqm. Clients have unlimited access to the facility 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The company says its security system ensures the safety of clients' possessions. The company can also provide packaging and transport for items.

City Self-Storage is the first company on the Polish market offering self-storage services. Apart from Poland, Selvaag Gruppen owns a network of 38 self-storage warehouses in Norway, Denmark, Sweden, Spain, Italy and the Czech Republic. The company's total storage space amounts to 170,000 sqm.
