Polmont trades storage is a daily challenge for many local businesses. Whether it’s keeping tools safe, juggling early starts and late finishes, or finding space for bulky deliveries, the struggle is real. Vans quickly fill up, garages become cluttered, and leaving the kit unsecured overnight is a risk no professional should take.
That’s where Boxxs Self Storage makes the difference. Just ten minutes from Polmont at Mill Road Industrial Estate in Linlithgow, Boxxs provides secure, modern storage designed for the way trades really work. With 24/7 access, robust security, and brand-new containers in every size, we’re fast becoming the go-to storage site for trades across West Lothian, Falkirk, and Bo’ness.
Load and Go with Real Drive-Up Access
Every minute counts when you’re working across multiple sites. At Boxxs, there’s no waiting around or dealing with corridors and trolleys. Every container is at ground level, so you can drive straight up, open the doors, and load directly from your van or pickup.
This drive-up design saves time for joiners grabbing timber, electricians loading tools, and landscapers storing bulk deliveries. Wide concrete roadways make manoeuvring easy, even for larger vans and trailers. It’s quick, practical access that keeps your working day moving.
24-Hour Access, 7 Days a Week
Trade doesn’t stop at 5 pm, and neither should your storage. At Boxxs, every customer receives a unique PIN code, providing secure entry 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.
Do you need to collect the kit before sunrise? No problem. Dropping off stock after a late finish? The gate is open for you. Even on weekends and bank holidays, your unit is always accessible. You’re in control of your schedule, not tied to office hours.
Clean, Modern Containers That Protect Your Kit
Your tools and equipment are your livelihood, and they deserve better than an old, battered box. At Boxxs, we only use brand-new, one-trip containers. That means you get clean, odour-free, watertight units built to keep everything safe and dry.
Every container is windproof, ventilated, and reinforced with solid steel walls and frames. Heavy-duty padlocks are included at no extra cost. From small power tools to bulky plasterboard, your kit stays in top condition throughout the year.
We also give you a choice. Containers come in every size to match the way you work:
5ft containers for small tools, archive boxes, or seasonal kits.
8ft containers for trades with modest setups or compact gear.
10ft containers with 80 sq ft of space, perfect for the contents of a van or a one-bed flat.
10ft High Cube Walk-In containers with added insulation, side-access doors, and extra height — ideal for those who want stable conditions and easier entry.
20ft containers at 160 sq ft, the size of a large garage. Perfect for vans, scaffolding, or palletised deliveries.
Whatever you choose, you can trust that it’s clean, new, and ready for immediate use.
Right Beside Your Suppliers
Convenience matters. Mill Road Industrial Estate isn’t just home to Boxxs, it’s also where many of your trusted trade suppliers are based. Toolstation, Screwfix, Howdens, and Arco all sit within the estate.
That means you can pick up supplies, load your van, and access your storage unit all in one stop. No wasted trips across town, no time lost between suppliers. For trades in Polmont, that efficiency is worth its weight in gold.
Secure, Professional Environment
When you leave valuable tools behind, you need to know they’re protected. At Boxxs, your security is our priority. Our site is safeguarded with multiple layers of protection:
– ANPR cameras at every estate entrance and exit, logging all vehicle movements.
– 24/7 HD CCTV coverage across the compound.
– Gated PIN entry, ensuring only authorised customers gain access.
– Containers supplied with heavy-duty padlocks.
The estate itself is a professional, low-traffic business hub, free from the risks of makeshift yards or shared workshops. When you choose Boxxs, you’re not just storing in a container; you’re part of a secure, purpose-built environment.
Micro Yards: Extra Space for Trades
For many trades, a container is enough. However, if you need more flexibility, Micro Yards provides you with room to expand.
Each Micro Yard combines a brand-new 20-foot container with a private 320-square-foot fenced yard. This setup is ideal for storing vans, scaffolding, bulk deliveries, or trailers alongside your tools. Tradespeople in Polmont utilise Micro Yards as cost-effective micro-warehouses, providing them with space to manage stock and vehicles without committing to a whole industrial lease.
Every Micro Yard is protected by the same robust security measures as the rest of our site, including ANPR, CCTV, and gated access. With your own fenced compound, you get space and security in a straightforward package.
For trades balancing vans, stock, and equipment, our Micro Yards are now one of the most popular choices for Polmont trades storage, offering the flexibility of a yard without the burden of an industrial lease.
Strongholds™ for Climate-Sensitive Storage
Most trades will be perfectly served by containers or Micro Yards. But for specific tools, materials, or stock, you may want extra protection from Scotland’s damp winters. That’s where Strongholds™ come in.
Strongholds are custom-built, insulated modular units engineered with advanced aerogel insulation to maintain stable temperatures and prevent condensation. They’re ideal for storing fabrics, electronics, records, or specialised equipment that cannot risk exposure to damp.
Available in X11 (40 sq ft), X10 (80 sq ft), and X7 (160 sq ft) sizes, Strongholds™ offer the same drive-up convenience as a container, but with added peace of mind for sensitive stock. For trades handling high-value materials, they’re the premium choice.
Flexible Contracts with No Hidden Fees
Running a trade business means that workloads fluctuate. At Boxxs, your storage flexes with you.
Every unit is available on a rolling monthly contract. There are no deposits, no long-term commitments, and no hidden fees. Prices are VAT-inclusive and published openly, so you always know your costs.
Need more space during a busy season? Upsize to a larger unit or Micro Yard. Finished with a project sooner than expected? Downsize or stop when you’re ready. Storage is on your terms, designed to support your trade, not tie you down.
