A micro yard is the most flexible, no-fuss base of operations Wow Storage offers. You get a brand-new, weatherproof 20ft shipping container for tools and stock, plus an adjoining 3m × 6m open yard behind a secure mesh gate — for your van, trailer, materials, or anything that won’t fit indoors.
It bridges the gap between a self-storage unit (too small, no outside space) and a full commercial yard (overkill, expensive, long lease). For tradespeople, mechanics, landscapers and small operators, it’s the size of space that actually matches the size of the job.
Why a micro yard works
Everything you’d expect from a Wow Storage container — plus the outdoor space tradespeople actually need.
Drive straight in
Pull your van right into your own yard, lock the gate behind you, and load or unload at your own pace.
24/7 access
Early starts, late finishes, weekend jobs — get to your gear whenever the work demands it.
Brand-new container
Insulated, ventilated, lit and dry. Power available so you can charge tools and run lighting.
Private fenced yard
3 × 6 m of outdoor space behind your own padlocked mesh gate. No shared yard, no queueing.
Site-wide security
Gated premises, CCTV, floodlighting and PIN-code access. Your kit stays where you left it.
Flexible terms
Monthly rolling — no long leases, no solicitor fees. Scale up or move on whenever you need to.

Who micro yards are built for
Tradespeople & builders
Lock the van in overnight. Stack timber, plasterboard, scaffold and bagged materials in the yard. Keep tools, fixings and PPE secure inside the container — ready to load and roll first thing.
Landscapers & gardeners
Park the trailer, store mowers, blowers and strimmers in the dry, and keep soil, bark, slabs or planters out in the yard. A working base that doesn’t take over the driveway at home.
Mechanics & tyre fitters
Somewhere to keep stock tyres, parts, lifts and diagnostic kit — with room outside for the vehicle you’re working on. Power available for tools and lighting.
Vehicle & plant storage
Park a van, pickup, trailer, mini-digger or compact plant securely behind your own gate. CCTV-monitored site, gated entry, floodlit overnight.
Small businesses & e-commerce
Stock storage with vehicle access. Drive courier vans straight into your yard for loading — no shared loading bay, no time slots.
Event & market traders
Gazebos, tables, stock crates, signage — keep it all packed in the container and load the van the night before. Out by 5am, no fuss.

Frequently asked questions
How big is a micro yard exactly?
The container is a standard 20ft (8ft wide × 8.5ft tall internal). The yard alongside it measures 3m × 6m — that’s 192 sq ft of yard, plus another 160 sq ft of dry, lockable container space — about 350 sq ft of total footprint.
How much does it cost?
£780 + VAT per month, on a flexible monthly rolling contract. No long leases, no solicitor fees.
Can I park a van or trailer in the yard?
Yes — the yard is sized to take a transit-style van or a small trailer with room to spare. Larger vehicles, plant or multiple trailers may need a bigger unit; just ask and we’ll talk it through.
Is there power inside the container?
Yes, our containers come with internal lighting and a power supply. Great for charging tools, running a light or working out of the unit during the day.
What’s the minimum term?
Monthly rolling. Stay for as long or as little as you need.
Can I run a business from the address?
You can use the unit and yard as a working base for storage, loading and vehicle parking. The site isn’t intended as a registered business address or a public-facing premises — give us a call if you’d like to discuss what’s allowed.
How secure is the site?
Gated entry with PIN-code access, full perimeter fencing, 24/7 CCTV and overnight floodlighting. The container itself takes a high-security padlock and the yard has its own padlocked mesh gate.
