Regional Ballarat: A Growth Corridor
Storage in Ballarat has changedover the last few years due to the significant growth in the area. The city hasnow become a place of real growth, located just far enough away frommetropolitan Melbourne to not be affected by the daily hustle and bustle, butalso close enough to commute easily enough for work – all the while stillretaining a bit of a “country feel” about it.
Alongwith a push for people from Melbourne to build and buy into more regionallocations, we’ve seen existing suburbs like Alfredton and Delacombe expandsignificantly, as well as other areas like Miners Rest and Mitchell Park alsoseeing growth in new houses.  A brand new suburb named Lucas, is also nowundergoing development and is in the early stages of land release. With these new developments, demand for housing in Ballarat has increased, andalong with it a significant demand on storage. More and more people are nowchoosing to put their goods into storage while building or shifting house thanpreviously ever did, as the housing and rental markets are currently quite indemand. The option for storage as a solution for the ordinary person has becomemore mainstream in the region as a result, and it’s no longer just something thatpeople in the bigger cities and businesses utilise. How many people do you knowthat use it?
