A container business that grew into a storage yard

Matthew Lambourne came from a business background of buying and selling containers, so he could see the potential in providing storage facilities for businesses and individuals. He set up Robertsbridge Container Storage Ltd in the year 2000 at The Mill in Robertsbridge, then moved the business to Johns Cross Farm, just outside Robertsbridge towards Hastings, on the A21.

In our facility your goods stay under your control, without that risk: robust locks, fire and intruder alarms, and closed circuit television coverage.

People these days tend to use the garage for the car and the loft for extra living space, so they need somewhere dry and secure to put their things, and to reach them whenever they like at no extra cost. Plenty of our customers put winter kit into store in the summer and summer kit into store in the winter.
