How Mates Storage Helps Families Safeguard Property During Sentences – When a loved one is serving a prison sentence, families often face the difficult task of managing and safeguarding their personal belongings. Whether it’s clothing, sentimental keepsakes, important documents, or small valuables, ensuring these items are stored securely can be a challenge. Mates Storage, funded by Corrections NSW, offers a free, secure, and reliable solution to help families protect their loved one’s property during their sentence, removing stress and providing much-needed peace of mind.

Why Families Need Secure Storage

The sudden transition of a family member entering prison often leaves families scrambling to figure out what to do with their loved one’s belongings. Not everyone has space at home to store extra items, and commercial storage solutions can be expensive. Mates Storage provides families with a free alternative that guarantees their loved one’s property remains safe and accessible.

By offering 1 cubic meter storage units, Mates Storage ensures there is enough space to hold essential items like:

  • Personal documents (passports, legal paperwork, identification)
  • Clothing and shoes
  • Sentimental keepsakes, photos, and letters
  • Small valuables, books, or electronics

Secure and Monitored Facilities

Security is a top priority at Mates Storage. All belongings are kept in professionally managed and monitored facilities, ensuring they are protected against theft, damage, or loss. Families can rest assured that their loved one’s property is stored safely and will remain in perfect condition for the duration of their sentence.

A Free Solution for Families

Thanks to Corrections NSW funding, Mates Storage is completely free for individuals and their families. This service removes the financial burden of finding secure storage, allowing families to focus on supporting their loved one through this challenging time. There are no hidden costs or ongoing fees—just a straightforward, reliable service that ensures property is safeguarded until it’s needed again.

Easy Access for Authorized Contacts

Mates Storage makes the process simple for families by allowing an authorized contact—such as a trusted family member or friend—to manage the storage unit on behalf of their loved one. This means items can be retrieved, added, or checked as needed during the sentence. The flexibility ensures that families have control over the storage while their loved one is away.

When the sentence is complete, retrieving the stored items is quick and stress-free. Mates Storage ensures a smooth process, making it easy for families to return the belongings to their loved ones as they transition back into the community.
