Member Storage Policy

Overview

The space provides storage options for members to keep projects and equipment between visits. This includes lockers, shelving, and designated project storage areas. Please be considerate — storage space is limited and shared by everyone.


Member Storage Boxes

Every member is assigned a personal storage box when they join. What you keep in your box is yours to manage — organise it however works for you.

Box Ownership & Reclamation

Your box remains yours as long as your membership is active and you're showing up. A box will be reclaimed by the space if:

  • Your membership lapses, for any reason, or
  • You haven't visited in 2 months without having given prior notice to the space (e.g. travelling, illness, busy period — just let us know)

When a box is reclaimed, its contents will be made available to other members via the donations box or distributed at the discretion of the space organisers. We'll make reasonable efforts to contact you before this happens.

Storage Tiers

Members on the Full Member tier get priority access to larger storage spaces (bigger boxes, lockers, or shelf allocations) as they become available. Standard members are assigned smaller boxes on a first-come, first-served basis.

Storage Type Available To Notes
Standard box All members Assigned on joining
Large box Full Members (priority) Subject to availability
Project shelf space All members See Project Shelf Policy below

Project Shelf Policy

Projects may be kept at the space for as long as they are actively being worked on or used. There's no hard time limit — just use common sense. If a project is taking up significant space and appears to have been abandoned, organisers may reach out to check in.

The short version: be sensible, be considerate, and it'll likely be fine.


Donations Box

The space maintains a communal donations box stocked with hardware, components, and equipment contributed by members and the public. Anyone is welcome to pick through it and take what they can use for their projects.

If you'd like to donate equipment or hardware to the space, please:

  1. Check that the item is in working condition, or clearly label it if not
  2. Place small items/components in the donations box
  3. For larger items, speak to a space organiser first — we have limited room and can't accept everything

We reserve the right to decline donations that don't fit the space's needs or available storage.
