Over a year ago I had spent several weeks looking for somewhere to store a whole host of community Giants. The Giants are amazing structures, approximately 14’ tall by 5’ wide and represents hours or work by over 20 community groups, but I couldn’t find anyone who could accommodate my storage requirements. On one particular day I just happened to be passing BiG Storage so I called in to see if they could help and I was, and still am, over a year later, amazed by their response. When asked if they had space to store the Giants, Brendan simply said, “Certainly madam, walk this way” and he showed me the best possible space I could have hoped for to store the Giants. The following day I had a phone call from the owner Andrew Donaldson, and the space for community giants was secured. It was at this point that I realised that BiG Storage is not just about a space to store things, it is all about giving the customer the best possible solution to their storage problems, whilst at the same time giving back time and support into the local community. Nothing is too much trouble for them; ‘the other Andrew’, is as comfortable giving me help and advice on any health and safety issues around storage and explaining logistics as he is at showing me how to move my Giants safely into and out of the storage space. It is now 14 months since ChestertheGiantCity starting storing Giants in BiG Storage, I go into the space most days, and every day I am met not only by cheerful and responsive staff, but I also meet the other customers who are also cheerful and helpful. BiG Storage and its entire staff are, in my opinion, the ‘bestofchester’.
