The self-storage industry has witnessed remarkable growth in recent years and has benefitted from disruptions caused by the pandemic. According to an IBISWorld report, “A number of effects caused by the pandemic and associated lockdowns – including a rising death rate, a spike in divorces, a surge in housing transfers and a boom in online shopping – all supported strong demand for self-storage services.”
To meet demand, prominent self-storage providers have been setting up new facilities throughout Victoria and New South Wales. BSE has collaborated with Storage King, National Storage, Storage Plus, and Kennards Self Storage to provide electrical, mechanical, fire protection, and hydraulic design services for some of their latest locations.
Self-Storage Facility Locations:
Mascot, NSW | New
Knoxfield, VIC | New
Mordialloc, VIC | Redevelopment
South Morang, VIC | New
Croydon, NSW | New
Wollongong, NSW | New
Chatswood, NSW | Extension
Lansvale, NSW | New
Kingsgrove, NSW | Addition & Alteration
Taren Point, NSW | New
BSE also provided acoustic engineering services for selected facilities, especially at locations which required acoustic reports in order to secure development approval (DA). To accomplish this, background noise monitoring is conducted to determine the noise criteria for onsite activities. Using these criteria, recommendations are included in the report to minimise the noise impact to nearby sensitive receivers when necessary.
We at BSE look forward to working with our industry partners on many more facilities to satisfy the storage needs of Australians throughout the country.
