Green Oak Storage is proud to be a member of the SSA (Self Storage Association), the main trade association for self storage operators like us and for supplier members in the UK. With regular conferences, networking events and close communication within the industry, becoming a member of the SSA demonstrates a new level of commitment to our clients and to keeping personal belongings safe and secure.
Who Are The SSA?
The Self Storage Association was established in 1995 with the goals of promoting and facilitating growth for self storage operators in the UK. The association is managed by experienced directors who know the industry well and who have international affiliations with the Federation of European Self Storage Associations. With more than 500 members including storage operators and suppliers, key players in this industry have come together to grow and to collectively offer the ultimate customer experience for those who wish to use self storage facilities.
How Being a Member of The SSA Helps Us Serve Our Community?

As a member of the SSA, our team at Green Oak Self Storage fully embrace all of their goals and missions in creating the perfect storage service. Our missions include:
Adhering to the highest industry standards shared by the leading self storage operators in Europe.
Playing our part to promote the self storage industry and to raise awareness of the public's access to storage facilities.
Industry research that could improve the service in the future.
Building relations within the SSA to exchange and discuss the industry with other self storage operators.
Attending conferences and members' networking events to ensure that we stay up-to-date on the latest advancements, whether it's new technologies, locking devices or administration.
To connect with the potential customers and let them know the services we provide. So many people, from students to families to regular travellers, could benefit from self storage but unfortunately are not aware of the capabilities of using a company like Green Oak. We want to let people know their options and to give them the peace of mind they deserve.
Growth in The Self Storage Industry
Self storage is an industry that is quickly growing and has been since the 1980s. With more than 2,000 facilities across the UK, the demand for secure and safe storage is increasing. The SSA not only supports established self storage facilities like Green Oak but also smaller businesses looking to grow. We work together within the SSA for the public to enjoy a diversified and comprehensive service.
Why Do People Need Self-Storage?
There are many reasons why people might require self storage facilities and they can be deeply personal to the customer. Whatever your reasons, you'll always have access to high quality storage at Green Oak. Common reasons why people seek self storage include moving house. We can store furniture in the middle of the moving process, making the move less stressful for you. Travellers may also be interested in self-storage in order to keep valuable items safe while they are away. Businesses can benefit hugely by being able to store stock, products and archives for as long as they need.
At Green Oak, we understand the value of your personal belongings, whether they are expensive or whether they have deep symbolic meaning to you. We do everything in our power, utilising advanced and sophisticated lockup units and CCTV cameras to provide further security.
