Address at a self storage facility

I've sold an item, I exclude po box addresses but the address of the buyer is a self storage facility. Their feedback seems ok .
Isn't this the same thing?

    I've sold a few bits to storage places, mainly to businesses who buy my antiques, I've not had any problems.

    Just watch out for the trading estate third party shippers though, they can be problematic. They are easily spotted as they send a list of things they need you to put on the outside of the package.

    I have all my purchases sent to my storage unit, its a big yellow store room so is very secure. The staff sign for it and send me a text when I have something. I have had nothing go missing and no problems with getting deliveries in.

    Just to add that some storage units offer onwards international shipping service. So you have your items delivered to a UK storage unit. Then its all sent in one parcel to you. Have had this a few times where a international buyer has had a UK storage company address as their Ebay address
