Kennards Self Storage Is Coming To Wairau valley Soon

February 10, 2021 by Andrew Kirkham

We are excited to finally announce that our new flag ship centre at Wairau Valley is nearing completion and will be opening in April 2021, providing much needed purpose-built storage units to the marketplace.

For anyone who has recently driven on the northern motorway past Takapuna, you can not miss our orange beacon on the corner of the Wairau Valley Motorway off ramp. Easily accessed via the traffic lights intersection of Curry Lane and Wairau Road.The building boasts six levels and has been created with a convenient drive up loading dock. Units are fully alarmed with 24/7 access.

There is also a box shop prodviding a full range of moving boxes and supplies to meet any storers needs,  making the storage experience even easier.

The Wairau Valley area is a very busy and popular commercial area, with Bunnings being a hive of activity, and  Pak N Saves, Harvey Normans and Danske Moblier outlets not far behind.

When designing this stoarge centre, we were conscious that the modern day storer needs vary and a range of unit sizes was needed, with larger ground floor units including mini warehouses for businesses and tradies, while not forgetting the every day storer with units as small as a locker space.

Initial enquiries taken as we have been building indicate this will be a very popular place to store – we recommend you check out the range of sizes before they are all reserved!

Our new Centre Manager Mark and Assistant Manager Leonie look forward to seeing you opening day!
