When you move in you will be asked about protection cover.

Do I need protection cover?

If it’s worth storing, it’s worth protecting. Even with our high level of safety and security, accidents and natural disasters can occur. Fort Knox Self Storage has protection cover on our facilities, this does not include your goods. Anything that you put into storage is your sole responsibility. Would you leave your precious goods unprotected in your home?

 

Who am I covered by?

Your goods are covered by a specialist storage protection cover. The protection cover covers your goods against loss or damage occurring from events such as fire, earthquake, explosion, water damage, theft etc. Your belongings are covered whilst they are securely locked in your storage unit.

Can I cover everything?

Your storage protection cover covers household items, clothing, furniture, electrical goods, computers, camping equipment, musical instruments, etc. It does not cover cars, boats motorbikes and caravans, these are usually covered by motor insurers. Some items such as fur coats, cash, paint and tobacco cannot be covered by storage protection cover.

Will my home contents protection cover cover that?

Your home contents protection cover only covers items at your address. Once your belongings are placed into storage they are no longer covered.

How much protection cover will I need?

The amount of protection cover you get should cover the cost of replacing your items. Work out the cost to replace each item and add them together.
