Service overview

## Containerised storage, linked to your move

### What it is
We offer containerised storage for both short-term and long-term needs. Storage can be discussed alongside your move. Contact us about the location, access, collection and delivery arrangements for your requirements.

### Who it&#x27;s for
It&#x27;s for homeowners caught in a property chain, renters between tenancies, people renovating, people downsizing and businesses between premises. One customer moved from Oxford to London with storage in between, as described in their supplied review.

### When you need it
You need storage when your completion dates don&#x27;t match, when renovation works make a room unusable, when you&#x27;re moving abroad temporarily, or when you need to declutter before selling.

### Why professional help matters
Self-storage means hiring a van, loading it yourself, driving it to a unit and doing it all again later. Our approach combines the move and the storage into one service, with arrangements discussed as part of your quote.

The risks

## What goes wrong when moving dates don&#x27;t match
Gaps between moves are common, and they cause real problems if they&#x27;re not planned.

### Nowhere to put your things
Without storage, you may have to delay a sale or rush a purchase.

### Double moving costs
Arranging separate companies for each leg of the move adds cost and coordination.

### Damage in makeshift storage
Garages, lofts and friends&#x27; spare rooms can be damp, cramped and unsafe.

### Lost time
Allow time for loading and unloading if arranging storage yourself.

### Common mistakes to avoid

- ×Leaving storage arrangements until the last week.
- ×Storing items in damp garages or sheds.
- ×Packing badly for long-term storage.
- ×Not keeping a list of what&#x27;s stored.

&quot;Daniel took great care of my stuff moving from Oxford to London, and storing it in between the move. Super quick, professional and really reasonably priced. Can&#x27;t recommend enough.&quot;Emma Little, supplied Google customer review

Pricing

## Details to include in your storage enquiry
We don&#x27;t publish a one-size-fits-all price list, because no two jobs are the same. A small flat on the ground floor with parking outside is a very different job to a four-bedroom house with a narrow staircase and permit-only parking. Instead, we offer a free survey and then a free fixed quote for your exact job.

For your quote, tell us about:

- How much is moving, and how large or heavy the items are
- Access at both addresses: stairs, lifts, parking and distance from the door
- The distance between addresses
- Extras you choose, such as packing, dismantling and reassembly, storage or disposal
- Your preferred date and time, so availability can be discussedYour fixed quote covers the agreed work. If your items, addresses, access or dates change, tell us so any quote changes can be discussed before proceeding. Payment is by bank transfer or cash.

Get ready

## How to prepare for your storage job
Discuss your requirements before the job. Before we arrive, it helps to:

- 1.Message us on WhatsApp with your dates, even if they&#x27;re not confirmed.
- 2.Book your free survey so we can see access and anything that needs special handling.
- 3.Decide what you don&#x27;t want to keep. We can take it away under our Environment Agency Waste Carrier Licence, as an agreed disposal service.
- 4.Check parking at both addresses and let us know about any restrictions.
- 5.Measure large furniture against doors and stairs at the new property, and ask whether dismantling is suitable.
- 6.Keep valuables, documents, medication and chargers with you on the day.If anything changes, such as a completion date moving or extra items appearing, tell us as soon as you can and we&#x27;ll update the plan.
