Storage and Moving Services
Moving belongings into or out of storage involves more than a simple delivery. Items need to be carried, loaded, transported, and unloaded, often with specific access rules at the storage facility. Our storage and moving service covers the main stages of the job, from loading at the collection address to unloading at the storage unit or delivery property.
The service can be used for a few boxes, a single piece of furniture, or the contents of a larger move. Additional support such as packing, furniture dismantling, and reassembly may also be available where required.

Arranging Items in the Unit

The exact service depends on your moving requirements. Providing details about the storage facility, unit access, and the amount of belongings helps the team plan the job and recommend the right level of support.
Moving Into Storage
Moving belongings into storage is often part of a larger change, such as a house move, renovation, or gap between tenancies. Before the move, it is worth checking the storage facility's access rules, opening hours, vehicle access, and any requirements for using lifts or loading areas.
Before moving day, provide the collection postcode and the storage facility address along with details about the belongings. Information about stairs, lifts, parking, access, and larger items can help the moving team prepare properly.
It can also help to label boxes clearly and keep an inventory of what is going into storage, so items can be found again easily when they are collected.
Moving Out of Storage
Collecting belongings from storage can be just as involved as moving them in. The team can collect furniture, boxes, and other items from the storage unit, load them into the vehicle, and deliver them to your new property.
Before the collection, check the facility's access arrangements and opening hours, and confirm whether the unit can be accessed at the planned collection time. If the unit is on an upper floor or requires a lift, mention this when requesting your quote.
At the delivery property, belongings can be unloaded and carried into the agreed areas. Where included in the service, furniture can be placed according to your instructions.
Storage During a House Move
Storage is often used when there is a gap between leaving one property and moving into another. Belongings can be collected from the old property, transported to storage, and then delivered to the new home when it is ready.
This can be useful when:
- There is a gap between tenancies or completion dates
- A property is being renovated
- A home is being staged for sale
- Furniture needs to be kept safe during building work
- A move is happening in stages
Let the team know whether belongings are going into storage, how long the gap is expected to be, and whether a return collection will be needed, so the full job can be planned.
Access and Unit Restrictions
Storage facilities can have different access arrangements, and these can affect how a move is carried out. Vehicle access, loading bays, lift sizes, corridor widths, opening hours, and security procedures can all vary between facilities.
Before moving day, consider:
- Vehicle access and parking at the facility
- Loading bay availability
- Lift size and weight limits
- Corridor and doorway widths
- Opening hours and access times
- Security or check-in procedures
- Distance from the vehicle to the unit
- Stairs or upper-floor units
If there are unusual access conditions, provide these details when booking. This helps the removal team plan the job and estimate the time and support required.
