Our commitment

Environmental damage, climate change, and pollution are huge issues that need a unified and strong response.

We are committed to protecting the environment and encourage our customers to do the same to:

  • Reduce the carbon footprint at each of our locations;
  • Increase the energy performance of our buildings;
  • Use resources sustainably and look for alternative sustainable materials;
  • Reduce landfill contribution by encouraging waste reduction through re-use and recycling.

Working together to make a difference

As a Shurgard customer, you already help making a difference. Simply by storing your belongings instead of buying new, you protect the planet’s natural resources and reduce landfill contributions.

When you are at a Shurgard location, there are a few small things you can do to further protect our environment:

  • Go paperless by opting for digital invoice;
  • Close the door after yourself to keep the heat in;
  • Switch off your vehicle’s engine while loading and unloading;
  • Turn off the taps in the toilets;
  • Use sustainable packing material, such as paper or fabric, where possible;
  • Take items you don’t need to the nearest recycling centre;
  • Remove and sort waste so it is treated properly.
