We’re not just about storage at blue self storage. We care about the spaces around us too.
On Wednesday 12th March, our team rolled up their sleeves and took part in a community litter pick around Ty Glas Industrial Estate, right next to our Llanishen facility. We proudly partnered with the brilliant team at Keep Wales Tidy to help make it happen.
Teamwork (and Gloves) in Action
Armed with gloves, litter pickers, and plenty of enthusiasm, our crew (a mix of staff, volunteers, and local supporters) set out with one goal: make the area cleaner, greener, and a little brighter.
By the end of the day, we’d filled 8 to 9 bags of rubbish, picked up a whole range of bits and pieces, and shared a lot of laughs along the way. It was a great reminder that when people come together, small efforts can have a big impact.



Why We Do It
This wasn’t just about tidying up, although we were pretty chuffed with how good the place looked afterwards. It’s about community. It’s about care. These aren’t just buzzwords for us – they’re part of who we are.
From supporting local charities to welcoming wildlife on our sites, we believe in doing our bit to look after our surroundings. Partnering with Keep Wales Tidy was a natural fit, and we hope it inspires others to think about the positive change they can make too.
“We’re Keep Wales Tidy – the charity working across Wales to protect our environment for now and for the future. We have a collective vision of a beautiful Wales cared for and enjoyed by everybody.”
What’s Next?
This litter pick is just the start. We’ve got more community initiatives in the works, all focused on giving back to the areas we serve and protecting the environment along the way.
So, if you spot us out and about with litter pickers in hand, give us a wave. Or better yet, come along and get involved.
A massive thank you to everyone who took part! You’ve helped make our community cleaner and brighter – and we couldn’t have done it without you.
Let’s keep it going, one bag of rubbish at a time.
