Professional Storage Services in Kennington

Our storage service is designed for people who need a reliable, short or long-term space for their belongings, without the hassle of driving to and from a self-storage site. We can collect, store and return your items, all handled by our trained, professional, and fully insured removals teams.

Whether you are between properties, decluttering before a sale, renovating, or managing surplus office furniture, we can tailor a storage plan to suit your situation and budget.

Who Our Kennington Storage Service Is For

Homeowners

If you are selling, downsizing or renovating, storage helps keep your home clear and your possessions safe. We carefully pack, collect and store furniture, appliances, boxes and personal effects until you are ready for them back.

Renters

For tenants changing rental properties, moving abroad, or in between tenancies, our flexible storage is ideal. Avoid moving everything multiple times; we can hold your items securely until your new place is ready.

Landlords

Landlords in Kennington use our storage to hold furniture during refurbishments, changeovers or when converting properties from furnished to unfurnished. We provide itemised inventories and clear labelling to keep everything organised.

Businesses

Local offices, shops and charities rely on our storage for excess furniture, archived documents, seasonal stock and exhibition materials. We offer business-friendly collection times and can coordinate directly with your facilities or office manager.

Students

Students often need storage over the summer or during placements. We offer compact, cost-effective options ideal for boxes, small furniture, bikes and personal items, with collection and redelivery timed around term dates.

What We Can Store

We can store most domestic and commercial items, including:

  • Sofas, beds, wardrobes and other household furniture
  • Kitchen appliances (fridges, washing machines – defrosted and dry)
  • Boxes of clothes, books, documents and personal effects
  • Office desks, chairs, cabinets and IT equipment (properly packed)
  • Sports equipment, bikes and hobby items
  • Decor, artwork and mirrors (with appropriate packing)

Items We Cannot Store

To comply with safety, legal and insurance requirements, we cannot store:

  • Perishable goods or food items
  • Flammables or hazardous materials (fuel, paint, gas bottles, chemicals)
  • Illegal items or substances
  • Cash, jewellery or high-value valuables best held in a safe or bank
  • Live plants, animals or any living organisms
  • Explosives, firearms or weapons

If you are unsure about a particular item, we are happy to advise before collection.

How Our Storage Process Works

1. Enquiry & Quote

You contact us with details of what you need to store, your timing, and access requirements. We then provide a clear, no-obligation quote, based on the volume, duration and any packing or collection services required.

2. Survey – Virtual or Onsite

For larger or more complex jobs, we carry out a free virtual or onsite survey in Kennington. This allows us to accurately measure volume, plan access, identify any special packing needs and confirm the vehicle size and team required. It means no surprises on the day.

3. Packing & Preparation

You can pack your own boxes, or choose our professional packing service. Our teams use sturdy cartons, furniture covers and export-grade wrapping where needed. Items are labelled and inventoried for easy identification and retrieval later.

4. Loading & Transport to Storage

On collection day, our trained crew arrive on time, protect floors and doorways where necessary, and carefully load your belongings. Everything is then transported in our vehicles under goods in transit insurance to our secure storage facility.

5. Storage, Unloading & Placement

Your items are unloaded into designated storage units or containers, stacked safely and logged on our system. When you are ready to have your belongings back, we arrange a convenient delivery date and place your items into the rooms you specify.

Transparent, Fair Pricing

We believe in clear, straightforward pricing. Storage costs are typically based on:

  • The volume of goods (measured in cubic feet or metres)
  • The length of time in store
  • Whether packing materials and packing services are required
  • Collection and redelivery distance and access

All costs are explained in advance, with no hidden extras. Longer-term storage can attract discounted rates, and we will always recommend the most efficient use of space so you only pay for what you need.

Why Choose Professional Storage Over DIY or Basic Man-and-Van?

Using a professional removals and storage company in Kennington gives you several benefits over doing it yourself or hiring a casual man-and-van:

  • Proper protection – trained handling, correct lifting, and professional wrapping reduce the risk of damage.
  • Insurance cover – your goods are protected by goods in transit insurance and storage facility cover.
  • Accountability – clear contracts, item lists and agreed terms, rather than informal arrangements.
  • Time and effort saved – we handle the heavy lifting, logistics and transport.
  • Secure premises – purpose-managed storage, not a random garage or outbuilding.

For valuable possessions and important business equipment, professional handling is a sensible investment.

Insurance and Professional Standards

As a reputable local removals and storage provider, we work to high professional standards:

  • Goods in transit insurance on our vehicles during collection and delivery.
  • Public liability cover for work carried out at your home or premises.
  • Trained moving teams with experience in handling fragile, bulky and high-value items.
  • Detailed inventories and labelling available on request for easier management of stored goods.

We are committed to treating your belongings with the same care we would our own.

Care, Protection and Sustainability

We take the protection of your belongings seriously. Furniture is wrapped, mattresses and sofas are bagged where required, and delicate items are cushioned and stacked carefully to prevent pressure damage. We use covers to protect doorways and floors during collection and delivery.

We also work to reduce our environmental impact where possible by reusing sturdy packing materials, offering reusable crates for some business clients, consolidating vehicle loads efficiently, and recycling or responsibly disposing of unwanted items on request.

Real-World Ways Our Storage Helps

Moving House with a Gap in the Chain

Property chains in Kennington do not always line up neatly. If you sell before you can move into your new home, we can move everything into storage, then deliver once you get the keys, avoiding rushed decisions or multiple moves.

Office Refurbishment or Relocation

When offices are being refurbished or relocated, storage allows you to keep vital furniture, files and equipment out of the way but easily accessible. We can phase collections and deliveries to match your project plan.

Urgent or Short-Notice Moves

Sometimes you need to move out quickly – perhaps due to a tenancy ending or unexpected circumstances. Our storage service gives you a secure, interim solution, allowing you to remove pressure from tight deadlines and focus on your next step.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does storage in Kennington cost?

Storage costs depend on how much you need to store, how long for, and whether you need us to pack and collect. We usually price by volume and duration, with separate charges for collection and redelivery. Once we understand your situation, we provide a clear written quote so you know exactly what you will pay each week or month. Longer-term bookings can often be discounted, and we will always try to optimise the space you use so you are not paying for empty capacity.

Can you offer same-day or urgent storage?

Where our schedule allows, we can often arrange same-day or very short-notice storage in Kennington, particularly for smaller loads. The more information you can provide when you call – list of items, access details, and timing – the easier it is for us to plan. For large properties or commercial moves, we may need at least a little time to survey and organise the right vehicle and team, but we will always be honest about what is realistically achievable and do our best to help.

Are my belongings insured while in storage?

Your items are covered by our goods in transit insurance while being moved to and from storage, and by the storage facility’s insurance while in store, subject to policy terms and declared values. We will explain the cover in plain language, including any limits or exclusions. For very high-value items or specialist pieces, we may recommend additional cover or that you retain them personally. Keeping an inventory and taking photos of key items before collection is always a sensible precaution.

What is included in your storage service?

Our standard storage service includes collection from your property in Kennington, secure transport to our storage facility, safe loading into the unit or container, and basic handling at both ends. You can choose to add professional packing and materials, or pack your own items in advance. When you are ready, we arrange redelivery and place items into the rooms you specify. We are happy to discuss partial retrievals if you only need some items back, though additional handling charges may apply.

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

Unlike many casual man-and-van operators, we provide a professional, structured service with trained staff, proper insurance and managed storage facilities. We conduct surveys where needed, give written quotes, maintain item security, and work to recognised standards of care. A basic man-and-van might seem cheaper at first glance, but often lacks insurance, inventories, secure storage and accountability. For anything more than a couple of low-value items, using an established removals and storage company is usually safer and better value in the long run.

How far in advance should I book storage?

For planned moves, booking one to four weeks in advance is ideal, especially during busy times such as summer and month-ends. This gives us time to carry out any surveys, confirm access arrangements and reserve the right amount of space. However, we understand that circumstances change quickly, and we regularly accommodate last-minute storage requests in Kennington. Even if your dates are not fixed, it is worth getting in touch early so we can pencil you in and offer guidance as your plans develop.
