Comprehensive Insurance for Self Storage Businesses

At Midland, we understand that running a self storage business comes with its unique set of challenges and risks. That's why we offer tailored insurance solutions designed to protect your investments, assets, and peace of mind.

Whether it's a converted warehouse or purpose-built facility, if you own or operate a self-storage business, it’s important to have a comprehensive and individually tailored insurance policy that covers your total operation.

Please note: we do not provide insurance for customer goods / personal contents stored within the facility.

Why Self Storage Businesses Need Insurance

Self storage businesses in Australia face a variety of risks that make insurance coverage essential. Here are some reasons why self storage businesses should prioritise insurance:

Property Protection

Self storage businesses store valuable possessions on behalf of customers. Insurance can protect your property, including buildings, storage units, and security systems, against unforeseen events like fire, theft, or vandalism.

Note: this does not cover customer goods/personal contents stored within the facility.

Liability Coverage

Accidents can happen anywhere, and self storage businesses are no exception. Liability insurance can cover costs related to injuries or property damage that occur on your premises.

Business Interruption

If a disaster or unforeseen event forces your business to close temporarily, business interruption insurance can provide financial support to cover ongoing expenses and lost revenue during the downtime.

Legal Expenses

Self storage business owners may face legal challenges related to disputes, contracts, or other issues. Insurance can help cover legal fees and settlements.

Tenant Default Protection

In cases where tenants fail to pay rent or breach their agreements, insurance can help recoup lost rental income.
