EXPERIENCE
Big Yellow Self Storage – various sites
DWD act as the sole planning agents for Big Yellow Self Storage Company Ltd. The planning team at DWD have acted on over 75 schemes for Big Yellow Self Storage, including some technically complex applications with significant issues relating to height, scale, massing, transport, noise and air quality.
Many of the applications are within strategically significant industrial sites and involve countering concerns from local authorities on the scale of jobs associated with a warehousing use and articulating the wider benefits of storage to businesses and residents.
This included commissioning a study of actual jobs that are sustained by a self-storage use.
