Jonas Witt, Safestore's UK Marketing Manager, commented: "It's testament to the Safestore brand that we have developed this fantastic partnership with eBay, the UK's largest online marketplace with over 15 million customers nationwide. eBay's Power Sellers are serious about selling, and this offer is specifically designed to provide them the space to store their items, freeing up room in their home or shop.
"People can hire our secure storage rooms from just a week for as long as they like. A key benefit is the ease of access - 24 hours a day, seven days a week - making Safestore the ideal solution for the storage needs of small and medium sized businesses - regardless if they are traditional market traders or eBay power sellers."
To take advantage of this exclusive promotion, all Power Sellers have to do is to visit the 'Partner Centre' on eBay's website, select the 'Seller Support' and then go to the storage section. After entering their postcode, they will get a list of their nearest Safestore Self Storage locations across the UK.
Continued Witt: "It's a fantastic deal for eBay Power Sellers, whilst getting a real taster of what Safestore Self Storage is all about. With more than 85 locations across the UK and an extensive range of room sizes, there is an option to suit every storage requirement, offering total flexibility and convenience."
