Who Our Storage Service Is For
Homeowners
Perfect if you are selling, staging your property, renovating or waiting for your purchase to complete. We can take selected items or your entire household into storage for short or long periods.
Renters
If your tenancy dates do not quite line up, or you are moving into a smaller place, storage gives you breathing space. We can help you store furniture, appliances and boxes until you know what you want to keep.
Landlords
We assist landlords clearing properties between tenants, storing furniture during refurbishments, or holding items while you change from furnished to unfurnished lets.
Businesses
Ideal for excess stock, seasonal items, archived files, spare furniture, event equipment and displays. We offer repeat collections and deliveries to suit changing business needs.
Students
Heading home for the holidays or going abroad for a term? We collect from halls or shared houses, store your belongings safely, then deliver back to your new address when you return.

Our storage collection service covers most everyday household and office items, including:
- Sofas, armchairs, tables, chairs and beds
- Wardrobes, drawers and shelving units
- TVs, audio equipment and small appliances
- Office desks, chairs, filing cabinets and equipment
- Personal belongings, clothes and books
- Boxed items, archive boxes and documents

- Perishable or food items
- Flammable, explosive or hazardous materials (including paint, fuel, gas bottles and chemicals)
- Illegal goods or items of unknown origin
- Live plants or animals
- Cash, jewellery or other high‑value items better suited to a safe or bank
- Industrial machinery containing fuel or oil that has not been drained
If you are unsure about a particular item, ask us during your enquiry and we will advise.
How Our Storage Process Works
1. Enquiry & Quote
Contact us with a brief description of what you need to store, your addresses in and around Kentish Town, and your rough dates. Where possible, we will provide a clear, no‑obligation quote based on the information you give us, including collection, storage and redelivery costs.
2. Survey (Virtual or Onsite)
For larger jobs or full households, we usually carry out a short virtual or onsite survey. This lets us assess access, parking, number of items and any special care needed, such as pianos or fragile pieces. The survey means we can allocate the right van size, team and materials, and confirm your quote accurately.
3. Packing & Preparation
On the day, we protect your belongings for storage. We can provide professional packing as an additional service, or you can pack your own boxes. We use blankets, covers and wrap for furniture, and we label items clearly so that they are easy to identify when you need something back.
4. Loading & Transport
Our trained team carefully loads everything into our vans, securing items to prevent movement in transit. We then transport your goods directly to our partnered secure storage facility. Routes and timings are planned in advance to minimise risk and delays.
5. Storage & Redelivery
Your items are stored in a dry, secure environment for as long as you need. When you are ready, simply book a return date. We then collect your items from storage and deliver them back to your new or existing address, placing furniture in the rooms you choose.
Transparent Pricing for Storage in Kentish Town
We keep our pricing straightforward and transparent. Costs generally include:
- Collection: based on van size, time, access and number of movers required
- Storage: usually a weekly or monthly charge depending on the volume of goods
- Redelivery: similar to collection, depending on destination and access
There are no hidden extras. Any potential additional charges, such as for packing materials, long carries or difficult access, are discussed and agreed in advance so you know exactly where you stand.
Why Use Professional Storage Movers Instead of DIY?
Hiring a professional removals and storage team offers several advantages over doing it yourself or relying on an occasional man‑and‑van:
- Experience: We know how to protect items for longer storage, avoiding damage from poor stacking or inadequate wrapping.
- Safety: Correct lifting techniques and equipment reduce the risk of injury to you and damage to your property.
- Efficiency: We load vans properly, making full use of the space and reducing the number of trips needed.
- Accountability: With written quotes, agreed inventories and insurance, you have clear protection if the unexpected happens.
Insurance & Professional Standards
We take our responsibility for your belongings seriously. Our service includes:
- Goods in transit insurance while your items are being moved between your property and the storage facility
- Public liability cover for your peace of mind while we are working in your home, building or business
- Trained, uniformed staff who follow safe handling and lifting practices
Full terms, limits and exclusions of cover are available on request. We encourage all customers to review them so they understand exactly how their goods are protected.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We look after your belongings with the same care we would expect for our own. Furniture is wrapped and covered, and loads are secured in the van to prevent shifting. In storage, items are positioned to minimise pressure points and potential damage.
Where possible, we use reusable blankets, durable crates and recyclable packing materials to reduce waste. We plan routes sensibly around Kentish Town to cut down on unnecessary mileage and fuel usage, which is better for both costs and the environment.
Common Storage Use Cases in Kentish Town
Moving House
Chains do not always line up neatly. If you need to move out before your new place is ready, we can take your belongings into storage for a few days, weeks or months, then deliver everything once you get the keys.
Office Relocation and Refits
When businesses are refurbishing, downsizing or relocating, temporary storage keeps furniture, documents and equipment safe and out of the way, allowing work to continue with less disruption.
Renovations and Decorating
Clearing rooms for building work or decorating protects your furniture from dust, paint and accidental knocks. We can remove and later return everything, saving you the hassle of working around it.
Urgent or Last‑Minute Storage
Life is not always predictable. If you have to vacate a property quickly, we can often arrange same‑day or next‑day collection to ensure your belongings are safely stored rather than rushed into unsuitable spaces.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does storage with collection in Kentish Town cost?
Costs depend on three main factors: how much you are storing, how long for, and how complex the collection and redelivery are. We usually combine a one‑off charge for collection and delivery with a weekly or monthly storage fee based on the volume of your goods. Larger or more complex moves may require additional team members or time. Once we know what you need, we provide a clear, itemised quote so you can see exactly what each part of the service costs.
Can you offer same‑day or urgent storage collection?
Where our schedule allows, we do offer same‑day or next‑day storage collections in and around Kentish Town. This is particularly useful if a move has fallen through, you need to vacate a property quickly, or builders need you to clear space at short notice. Availability depends on existing bookings, van sizes and team capacity, so the sooner you contact us, the better. We will always be honest about what is realistic and do our best to accommodate urgent situations safely.
Are my belongings insured while in storage and in transit?
Your items are covered by our goods in transit insurance while we are moving them between your property and the storage facility. We also hold public liability cover while we are working at your premises. Storage cover at the facility is subject to specific terms and limits, which we can explain in detail before you book. For particularly high‑value items, we may recommend that you arrange additional cover through your own insurer to ensure you are fully comfortable with the protection in place.
What is included in your storage service?
Our storage service typically includes collection from your property, protective loading of your items, transport to a secure storage facility and later redelivery to your chosen address. We provide standard blankets and covers for furniture and secure strapping in the van. Optional extras include professional packing, supply of boxes and materials, and dismantling or reassembly of certain furniture. We will confirm exactly what is included in your quote so you know what to expect on the day.
How is this different from a basic man‑and‑van service?
A casual man‑and‑van may simply turn up with a vehicle and load items, often without formal training, clear insurance or proper planning. Our service is a structured removals and storage solution delivered by trained, fully insured staff. We survey where needed, plan access, bring appropriate protection, and coordinate with the storage facility. You receive a written quote and clear terms, so there is accountability from start to finish. This significantly reduces the risk of damage, delays and misunderstandings.
How far in advance should I book storage?
For the best choice of dates and times, we recommend booking at least one to two weeks in advance, especially during busy periods such as weekends and month‑ends. However, we understand that storage often arises from changing circumstances, so we do our best to help even at short notice. Once you know your likely dates and have an idea of what you need to store, get in touch and we can pencil you in, adjust details later if required, and keep your plans as flexible as possible.
