In Benfica, Morais Soares and Alcântara the vehicles can be parked inside the property premises. In Matinha there is a exterior private parking unit reserved for Storex clients. Please note the parking is only available to load/unload client's goods. Long term parking or overnight parking is not permitted.

Our storage units possess above average height therefore you can rent a unit with much smaller floor area if you can pile up your storage materials.
Please call us at our toll free number 800 91 5000 and ask the manager for a proposal. Or if you already know what you need send us an e-mail to mail@storex.pt

It is possible depending on the type of work. The units are only equipped with lighting and do not have electric power supply. You can ask the manager to install an electric outlet if the power you need is low. In some cases we have had small industries that require a lot of power.

Individuals - Commercial renting agreement with a limited time span according to paragraph 5 no. 2 E of Decreto Lei no. 321-B/90 of October 15th relative to renting of storage units (this is the legal text but in reality it is the usual renting agreement). Rental charges due under these contracts are exempt from VAT.

The client will be invoiced with the days remaining to the end of the current month (if less than 3 days to this date then the next month will also be invoiced). As well a last month security deposit will be added to this value. This value will be returned at the end of the contract.
The easiest way is via a bank transfer to Storex account on Millennium BCP. You do not need to come to our locations. But you can pay by cash, Multibanco (ATM) or cheque. If paying by cheque you must write two parallel lines across the cheque so the cheque cannot be cashed and must be deposited into an account (cheque cruzado)
Just call, write or e-mail your Storex manager 30 days in advance. No need for registered letters or delivery receipts from the Post Office.
If you give us notice more than 30 days in advance we deduct if from your last invoice. If you give us notice prior to the 10th of your last month of occupancy we will refund the security deposit in full. If you give us notice between the 11th and the 20th we will refund half of the security deposit. If you give us notice after the 20th you will not be entitled to any refund but you can occupy your unit during the next month as the cost has already been covered.
The value of the refund will be paid to you by cheque generally up to 5 days after the end of the month
Yes, if the storage unit has not already been rented out.

Generally no. Units are rented on a first come first served basis. As an exception we can issue a contract starting at a future date (a few days only in the future) if the invoice is paid when the contract is signed.
Access is controlled by an electronic card. Every entry is recorded and processed by our computer system. Storage units are totally enclosed and locked up with a padlock supplied by the client.

If the client finds the maximum value per claim is not enough, he/she can request additional insurance coverage to the same insurance company and can benefit from Storex ́s favourable rates. The storage manager will give you all the information required.
