Win a year's free storage for a charity with Giant Storage

    Giant Storage, a family-run self-storage company with sites across Wiltshire and Somerset, is offering a free 20ft shipping container for 12 months to a local charity in Yeovil that needs it. The offer includes a free van and man removal service, and after 12 months the arrangement will be reviewed with a view to continuing support.

    It's an extension of what the company already does. Giant Storage has provided free storage and removals to families displaced by the Amesbury house fire, and has donated containers to charity partners in Salisbury and Frome - including Amesbury Baby Bank, Old Sarum& Longhedge Pantry, and Footprints 2 Africa in Salisbury, and Fromebase and OpenStoryTellers in Frome.

    “We have just got back from the storage container - wow! It's wonderful and feels so huge. The artists from OpenStoryTellers loved it so much and gasped as we opened it up. We are so grateful.” - Ben Waller, OpenStoryTellers
