Who Our Long-Term Storage Is For
Homeowners
If you are renovating, downsizing or moving abroad, our long-term storage is ideal for furniture, boxes, seasonal items and family heirlooms. We can work with your removals team to collect directly from your home, store for as long as needed, and return items when you are ready.
Renters
For renters between tenancies or moving into smaller properties, we provide a safe place for furniture, white goods and personal belongings. Long-term storage can be more economical than paying for a larger rental just to hold extra items.
Landlords
Landlords often use our storage when changing between furnished and unfurnished lets, or when undertaking significant refurbishments. We store beds, wardrobes, appliances and soft furnishings, keeping them protected until the next tenancy.
Businesses
Our business storage is used for excess stock, archived files, exhibition materials, spare furniture and equipment. Long-term storage frees up expensive office or retail space while keeping your items secure and accessible by arrangement.
Students
Students frequently use our long-term storage over summer or gap years. We store boxes, suitcases, small furniture and course materials, so you do not need to take everything home and back again each term.
What You Can Store with Us
Typical items we store on a long-term basis include:
- Household furniture – sofas, beds, tables, chairs, wardrobes
- Appliances – washing machines, fridges, freezers (defrosted and dry)
- Boxes of clothing, books, toys and personal items
- Office furniture and equipment
- Retail stock, promotional and exhibition materials
- Sports equipment, bikes and hobby items
What Cannot Be Stored
For safety, legal and insurance reasons, we cannot accept:
- Perishable or open food and drink
- Flammable, explosive or hazardous materials (including gas bottles and fuel)
- Illegal goods or items of unknown origin
- Live animals or plants
- Cash, securities or extremely high-value jewellery
- Strongly odorous or contaminating items
If you are unsure whether something is suitable for storage, please ask and we will advise.
Our Step-by-Step Long-Term Storage Process
1. Enquiry & Quote
You contact us by phone or via our website form. We ask a few straightforward questions about the volume and type of items, how long you expect to store and whether you need collection or packing help. Based on this, we provide a clear, no-obligation quote detailing storage costs and any additional services.
2. Survey (Virtual or Onsite)
For larger loads, we may recommend a short video survey or an onsite visit. This allows us to assess access, parking, staircases, lifts and the size of the consignment accurately. With this information, we can allocate the right size unit, the appropriate removals team and vehicles, and confirm pricing so there are no surprises on the day.
3. Packing & Preparation
You can pack your own items, or we can provide a professional packing service. Our trained teams use strong cartons, bubble wrap and protective covers for furniture and mattresses. For long-term storage, good packing is essential to prevent damage, so we always recommend sturdy materials and careful labelling.
4. Loading & Transport
On the agreed date, our removals partners arrive at your property, protect floors and key walkways, and begin loading. Items are carefully carried, wrapped where needed, and secured in the vehicle. We then transport everything directly to our storage facility, keeping items protected throughout the journey.
5. Unloading & Placement in Storage
On arrival, your belongings are unloaded into your designated storage unit. Heavier items are positioned safely, and fragile or sensitive items are stacked appropriately to avoid pressure or impact. We record unit details for future access and returns. When you are ready for your items back, we organise re-delivery from the same facility.
Transparent Long-Term Storage Pricing
We aim to keep pricing clear and straightforward. Costs are based on:
- The size of storage unit required
- The length of time you wish to store
- Whether you require collection/delivery and packing services
We explain all charges in writing before you commit. There are no hidden access fees or surprise add-ons. For longer storage periods, we can often offer discounted rates compared with short stays. You are always free to ask us to review the unit size if your needs change.
Why Choose Professional Storage Over DIY or Casual Man-and-Van
Using a professional storage and removals service offers several advantages over doing it yourself or using an unregulated man-and-van:
- Fully insured operations with documented procedures
- Trained teams who know how to protect and stack for long-term storage
- Secure, purpose-built facility, not a garage or shed
- Accurate inventory and controlled access procedures
- Clear contracts and accountability if something goes wrong
DIY solutions often rely on unsuitable spaces and inadequate protection, which can lead to damp, damage or loss over time.
Insurance and Professional Standards
As a responsible storage provider, we maintain strong protections for our customers:
- Goods in transit insurance when we arrange collection and delivery via our removals partners
- Public liability cover for work carried out on your premises
- Trained moving teams who follow best practice for lifting and handling
We are always happy to explain how cover works in practice and what is required for any individual high-value items. You are also welcome to arrange your own additional cover if preferred.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We treat your belongings with the same care we would give our own. Our approach includes:
- Use of furniture blankets, mattress bags and protective wraps
- Clean, dry units to help guard against damp and dust
- Encouraging re-use of cartons where safe and suitable
- Recycling packaging materials where possible
- Planning efficient routes to reduce unnecessary mileage
We continually look for ways to minimise waste and operate more sustainably while maintaining strong protection for stored items.
Real-World Long-Term Storage Use Cases
Moving House
Chains can be unpredictable. Many customers store the bulk of their furniture and non-essential items with us during a move, then bring them out once they are settled and any decorating is complete. This reduces stress on moving day and keeps your new home clear while you organise.
Office Relocation
Businesses use long-term storage when moving premises, refurbishing, or consolidating offices. We hold surplus desks, chairs, filing cabinets and IT equipment while new layouts are finalised, or until a new branch opens.
Urgent Moves
Sometimes you need to clear a property quickly – for example following a sale completion, end of tenancy or change in personal circumstances. We can arrange swift removals into storage, buy you time to decide what to keep, and return items when you have a clear plan.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does long-term storage cost?
Costs depend mainly on the size of the unit and the length of time you need to store. Smaller units suitable for a few boxes and small items are naturally cheaper than spaces holding full household contents or office furniture. We will ask about your items, suggest an appropriate unit size and provide a written quote. Longer commitments can attract better monthly rates. There are no hidden access charges, and we are always happy to review your unit size if your needs change.
Can you help with same-day or urgent storage?
Where capacity allows, we can often arrange urgent or near same-day storage in Grange Park, particularly for customers facing tight completion or tenancy deadlines. If you need rapid assistance, contact us as early as possible and explain your situation. We will check unit availability, removals availability and local access constraints, then confirm what we can realistically achieve. While we cannot guarantee same-day space in every case, we will always do our best to accommodate urgent requests.
Are my belongings insured while in storage?
When we arrange collection and delivery via our removals partners, your goods are covered by goods in transit insurance during the move. Within storage, we operate secure facilities with controlled access, but customers are generally encouraged to maintain appropriate contents cover for items in storage. We can discuss the value of your goods and outline options available through our recommended policies or your own insurers. We are fully transparent about what is and is not covered so you can make an informed decision.
What is included in your long-term storage service?
Our core service includes a secure, dry storage unit in our Grange Park facility, with agreed access arrangements and clear monthly or weekly charges. We can add collection from your property, professional packing, supply of packing materials and re-delivery when you are ready. Many customers choose a complete door-to-door package, while others prefer to bring items in themselves. We will tailor the service around what you need and confirm everything in writing before you commit.
How is your service different from a basic man-and-van?
A casual man-and-van may be fine for a single, short local trip, but long-term storage requires more structure and protection. We use secure, purpose-designed storage units rather than ad-hoc garages or lock-ups. Our teams are trained, our operations are fully insured, and we follow consistent procedures for packing, loading and recording stored items. You have clear contracts, agreed pricing and a single point of contact, rather than relying on informal arrangements that may offer limited recourse if something goes wrong.
How far in advance should I book long-term storage?
If possible, we recommend booking at least one to two weeks in advance, especially during busy periods such as the end of the month or summer. This gives us time to arrange the right unit size, coordinate removals slots and plan around any access restrictions at your property. However, we understand that plans can change suddenly, so we always keep some flexibility in our schedule. Even at short notice, it is worth calling us to see what we can do.
