We’re delighted to share the completion of the Storage King Woolloongabba facility in Brisbane.

This transformation from a former motor vehicle dealership into a state-of-the-art self-storage facility has been remarkable. Re-purposing existing structures and constructing new buildings, the facility spans over 5525m² across two buildings, boasting over 400 storage units of varying sizes, making it an ideal choice for both residential and business storage needs near Buranda and East Brisbane.

Essential infrastructure and key features of the build include:

  • Construction of driveways and loading bays
  • Easy access to units
  • Modern passenger and goods lifts
  • Landscaping enhancements to improve the streetscape
  • Eye-catching façade, illuminated signage with Storage King’s branding elements

Our team expertly navigated multiple in-ground latent conditions, including complex underpinning works for an 11m high fire wall between buildings. Through collaborative design engineering, we were able to reduce costs and source secured steel from overseas, ensuring the project met both time and budget requirements.

As experts in self-storage construction, we are proud to add this facility to our portfolio. A big thank you to everyone involved in making this project a success!

We are proud to showcase our recently completed self-storage development in Brendale, QLD. This project features a 3-storey building with various unit sizes to meet diverse storage needs and a 1-storey building designed specifically for larger items such as boats and vehicles.

Faced with unsuitable soil conditions, we collaborated with Geotech and Civil engineers to conduct thorough soil testing. This led to a cost-effective piled foundation solution that ensures the long-term stability of the building.

In a competitive market, we leveraged our strong relationships with our reliable subcontractor network. When supply challenges arose with timber piles, our team explored alternative foundation methods, ensuring both structural integrity and cost-effectiveness for the development.

Total Construction is committed to delivering the highest quality self-storage solutions. This project in Brendale marks our 7th collaboration with the Abacus Group and our 18th project overall for Storage King Group, showcasing our expertise and innovation in this sector. We look forward to build on this successful partnership and continue to delivering exceptional projects in the future.

We extend a special mention and thanks to the team at TOTAL and our partners for their unwavering commitment to fulfilling our core purpose “to make a positive difference to people’s lives through excellence in construction”.
