Who Our Storage Service Is For

Homeowners

Ideal if you’re decluttering before a sale, renovating, downsizing or waiting for your new property to complete. We can store furniture, appliances and personal effects securely until you’re ready for delivery.

Renters

If your tenancy dates don’t line up or you’re moving into a smaller place, we offer flexible storage so you’re not forced to get rid of furniture or rush decisions. We can collect from your current property and deliver to your new address when you’re ready.

Landlords

We assist landlords needing to clear or part-furnish properties between tenancies. Store surplus furniture, white goods or staging items safely, and call them back out whenever you need them for the next let.

Businesses

From office furniture and archive boxes to event equipment and excess stock, our business storage is secure and scalable. We can collect directly from your office, shop or site and return items as required, helping you maximise your working space.

Students

Perfect for university students heading home for the summer or going abroad. Store your belongings from halls or a shared house locally, instead of dragging everything back and forth. We can collect and redeliver to your new term address.

What We Can Store

Our storage is suitable for most household and office items, including:

• Furniture: sofas, beds, wardrobes, tables, chairs, bookcases
• Appliances: washing machines, fridges, freezers (defrosted and dry)
• Boxes of personal items, clothes, books and kitchenware
• Office furniture and equipment
• Non-perishable stock and supplies
• Sports equipment and hobby items

Items We Cannot Store

For safety, legal and insurance reasons, we cannot store:

• Perishable or open food and drink
• Flammable, explosive or hazardous materials (including gas canisters, paints, solvents)
• Illegal goods or substances
• Live plants or animals
• Cash, jewellery or other high-value personal items best kept in a safe or bank
• Weapons or ammunition

If you’re unsure about a particular item, we’ll advise you clearly before collection.

How Our Storage Process Works

1. Enquiry & Quote

Contact us by phone or online and tell us what you need to store, where from, and for roughly how long. We’ll ask a few questions to understand volume, access, and any special handling needs. You’ll then receive a clear, no-obligation quote covering collection, storage and re-delivery.

2. Survey (Virtual or Onsite)

For larger loads or more complex jobs, we’ll arrange a brief virtual or onsite survey. This lets us accurately assess how much space you’ll need, the right vehicle size, number of movers and any packing materials. It keeps pricing accurate and avoids surprises on the day.

3. Packing & Preparation

You can pack your own boxes, or our team can provide a professional packing service. We use quality materials and protective covers for furniture, mattresses and delicate items. Everything is clearly labelled to match your inventory, making retrieval and redelivery straightforward.

4. Loading & Transport

On collection day, our trained team arrives with the right vehicle and equipment. We carefully load your items, securing them for transport and checking them against your inventory. Your belongings are then transported directly to our secure storage facility.

5. Unloading & Storage Placement

At the facility, we unload and place your items into the allocated storage space, stacking them safely to avoid damage. Your goods remain stored under controlled conditions with appropriate security measures in place until you request redelivery.

Transparent Storage Pricing

We believe in straightforward pricing with no hidden extras. Your overall cost will depend on:

• Volume of items (and therefore storage space required)
• Length of storage period
• Collection and redelivery locations
• Any optional services (packing, dismantling, out-of-hours access)

We’ll provide a clear written quote before you commit, breaking down collection, storage and redelivery. If your needs change, we can usually adjust the storage size or duration to suit you, and we’ll always explain any price changes in advance.

Why Use Professional Storage Instead of DIY?

Trying to manage storage yourself, with a hired van and a cheap unit, can be time-consuming and risky. With Edgware Man and Van you benefit from:

• Professional handling to reduce the risk of breakage
• Fully insured transport and storage coverage
• No need to drive large vans or navigate tight car parks
• Planned loading so items are stored safely and accessibly
• One point of contact from collection to redelivery

You save time, avoid physical strain, and have peace of mind that your belongings are being managed by experienced removal professionals.

Insurance and Professional Standards

We take the security and condition of your belongings seriously. Our service includes:

• Goods in transit insurance covering your items while they are being moved
• Public liability cover for work carried out in and around your property
• Trained teams who understand safe lifting, packing and loading

We work to industry best practices, from handling fragile items to securing loads in the vehicle. Details of cover levels are available on request and can be confirmed with your quote, so you know exactly how your items are protected.

Care, Protection and Sustainability

Protecting your belongings starts with how we wrap, pack and move them. We use padded covers, mattress protectors and transit blankets, along with proper stacking and securing methods, to minimise any risk of damage.

We also work with sustainability in mind by:

• Reusing durable packing materials wherever practical
• Recycling cardboard and plastics responsibly
• Planning routes efficiently to reduce unnecessary mileage

Our aim is to look after your possessions while keeping our environmental impact as low as reasonably possible.

Real-World Storage Use Cases

Moving House

If your sale and purchase don’t align, or you’re staging your home for viewings, we can move certain items into storage and deliver them once you’re in your new property. This keeps your home presentable and your move less stressful.

Office Relocation

Businesses often need phased moves. We can store surplus desks, chairs, filing cabinets and IT hardware while your new space is being fitted out, then deliver in stages as each area is ready.

Urgent or Emergency Moves

Sometimes moves are unplanned: a sudden change of tenancy, unexpected works, or personal circumstances. We can often provide fast storage solutions, collecting items at short notice and holding them safely until you have a longer-term plan.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does storage in Edgware cost?

Storage costs depend mainly on how much space you need and for how long. We typically price by the volume of your belongings and the duration in weeks or months, plus collection and redelivery if required. Smaller loads and shorter stays are naturally cheaper, while long-term customers often benefit from better rates. After a brief discussion or survey, we’ll give you a clear, tailored quote with no hidden fees, so you know exactly what you’ll pay before you commit.

Can you provide same-day or urgent storage?

In many cases, yes. If you need urgent storage due to an unexpected change of plans, we’ll do our best to accommodate you, subject to vehicle and space availability. Call us as early as possible and explain the situation; we’ll check our schedule and storage capacity and give you an honest answer straight away. Even when same-day isn’t possible, we can often arrange a rapid next-day collection and short-term solution to bridge the gap.

Are my belongings insured while in storage?

Yes. Your items are covered by our goods in transit insurance while we’re moving them and by our storage-related cover while they’re in our facility, subject to policy terms and standard exclusions. We’ll explain what is and isn’t covered when we provide your quote, and you’re welcome to ask for specific cover levels in writing. For particularly high-value items, we may recommend confirming additional cover with your own insurer for complete peace of mind.

What’s included in your storage service?

Our storage service can be as comprehensive as you need. As standard, it includes secure storage space, basic protection of items and standard handling into and out of the unit. Most customers also choose collection and redelivery by our professional team, with loading, unloading and careful placement at each end. Optional extras include packing, dismantling and reassembly of furniture, and additional protective materials. We’ll tailor the service to your situation and outline exactly what’s included in your quotation.

How is this different from a basic man-and-van service?

A casual man-and-van typically offers transport only, often without formal training, structured protection measures or full insurance. Our service combines removals and secure storage, delivered by trained, fully insured professionals. We plan your job properly, use appropriate vehicles and equipment, and provide an itemised approach to handling and storage. This reduces the risk of damage, gives you clearer accountability, and offers a single, reliable contact from collection to final delivery.

How far in advance should I book storage?

For planned moves, booking one to three weeks in advance is ideal, especially during busy periods such as summer and month-ends. This gives us time to arrange surveys if needed and secure the right storage space and collection slot. However, we understand that circumstances change quickly, so we also handle last-minute requests whenever we can. Even if your dates aren’t fixed yet, it’s worth getting in touch early so we can pencil in options and advise on availability.
