Get started with your first Spring event this year, as your storage solution provides ways to improve them. Along with some storage tips for Easter, we have also revealed our Easter 2026 opening hours. From our Extended Hours Service to tips for improving any space, find out how our storage units can make a difference.

1 Big Self Storage features as a local storage solution located in East Tilbury. Our Thurrock storage grants locals a range of units at their doorstep, from 12 to 200 square feet. We also sell packaging and storage necessities on-site to help our clients focus on storing rather than sorting. During the holidays, we also feature an Extended Hours Service that grants extra access outside of our operating hours.

Our seasonal storage tips often feature ways to increase your space at home. There are also ways you can improve your next spring event, whether you are hosting at home or elsewhere. Our Easter 2026 opening hours have also been revealed, which affect your access during bank holidays. Here are the hours and key tips for the seasonal events you may conduct this Spring.

We have announced our opening hours during the Easter holidays, which will take place from the 3rd of April 2026. Although we are not operating during select days, our Extended Hours Service can grant access to clients from 6 am to 8 pm during bank holidays. This makes a difference to last minute preparations for your Spring Event you may be hosting on the weekend. From only £6.25 per week, you can easily start to access your unit if you need access during the holidays. The Easter Opening hours for 2026 include the following;

Friday, 3rd of April (Good Friday) – Closed.

Saturday, 4th of April – 9 am to 1 pm.

Sunday, 5th of April (Easter Sunday) – Closed.

Monday, 6th April – (Bank Holiday) – Closed

Normal Hours will resume from Tuesday the 7th of April 2026.

If you have any concerns regarding acces to your storage solution during these hours, please let a member of staff know as soon as possible. We can help meet any requirements you have and find a solution for any move or use. Find out about our Extended Hours service directly at reception. Terms and conditions apply so make sure to check in at reception and ask a member of staff during your next visit.

One of the biggest storage issues is often the extra furniture you need for hosting. Various chairs, tables, or other outdoor items can often take up valuable space at home, even after the event. Our self-storage solution can help find the right space for any extra furniture you only plan to use for events. This allows you to keep assets for future events or even keep temporary extras out of the way. We also find the best space for your needs to keep costs to a minimum.

Sometimes your own home can restrict the capacity for your event, depending on what you usually have out. Whether this is something you plan to sort one day, or just happen to have some items that don’t work with your plans. Our self-storage units can help make the most of your event space by storing what you don’t need before your spring event. This is also a great way to deal with a mess another day, so the guests can focus on the delights of your home, rather than the horrors.
