12 Things We're Grateful for This Holiday Season

As December settles over the Okanagan and another year draws to a close, we're taking a moment to count our blessings. For everyone here at Secure-Rite, that means thinking about the amazing people, meaningful partnerships, and special moments that have made this year memorable. This holiday season, we wanted to share twelve things we're truly grateful for!

1. Our Incredible Customers

From homeowners tackling renovations to contractors juggling multiple job sites to businesses finding creative ways to expand, you inspire us every single day. Thank you for trusting us with your storage needs and for being part of our Secure-Rite family.

2. The Kelowna Community

This city and the beautiful Okanagan region we call home has supported us from day one. Being part of a community that celebrates local businesses and looks out for one another is something we cherish, and we're proud to give back whenever we can.

3. Every Storage Container Rented or Sold

Each Kelowna shipping container that heads out to a new home represents someone who chose us to help solve a problem. Whether you needed temporary storage during a move or a permanent solution on your property, we're honoured you let us be part of your journey.

4. Creative Shipping Container Customizations

We absolutely love when customers come to us with unique ideas! This year brought some fantastic projects: shipping container offices, custom ticket booths, specialized equipment shelters, and innovative spill containment units. Watching a steel shipping container transform into exactly what someone envisioned never gets old.

 

5. Our Skilled, Passionate Team

Behind every storage container delivery, every shipping container modification, and every friendly phone call is a team that genuinely loves what they do. Our team shows up with smiles, work with pride, and treat every customer like a neighbour because that's exactly how we see you.

 

6. Strong Partnerships with Local Businesses

We're so thankful for the contractors, suppliers, and fellow Kelowna businesses we work alongside. These relationships make us better at what we do and keep our work rooted right here in the community where it belongs.

7. Moments of Community Impact

Whether we're supporting causes close to our hearts or helping out when someone in the community needs a storage solution on short notice, these moments remind us why we do what we do. Community isn't just where we work – it's who we are.

Secure-Rite sponsors Meet Me on Bernard, Rock the Lake, local sports teams & more. We believe in this community. 

8. Recognition in KelownaNow's Best Of Awards

Wow! Earning Gold for Best Storage Company in Kelowna through your votes was such an honour. Knowing that our community sees and appreciates the care we put into our work means absolutely everything to us.

9. Serving Communities Across BC, Alberta and Beyond

We've been fortunate to grow our reach across British Columbia and Alberta, but we've done it without losing the personal, local touch that's always been our foundation. No matter where we serve, Kelowna will always be home, and that small-town approach to customer service travels with us everywhere. 

10. New Self Storage Options

Expanding our storage offerings by adding self-storage into our service offerings has been so exciting! We love being able to say "yes, we can help with that" to even more people, whether you need something small and short-term or a larger permanent solution.

11. 20 Years of Secure-Rite!

What a milestone! Celebrating 20 years of serving this community has been incredibly meaningful. Two decades of relationships, growth, lessons learned, and trust earned – we couldn't have done it without every single person who's been part of this journey.

 

12. The Opportunity to Keep Doing What We Love

At the end of the day, we're grateful to help people find the space they need to build, grow, organize, and thrive. Whether that's storing your grandmother's furniture, creating workspace for your growing business, or protecting valuable equipment, being part of your story is truly a privilege.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts to everyone who's been part of the Secure-Rite story this year. We hope your holiday season is filled with laughter, good food, quality time with loved ones, and maybe a little bit of well-deserved rest! We can't wait to see what we'll build together in the year ahead. If you have any questions or need a storage solution, contact our team anytime!
