Local Storage Expertise in Roehampton

Based in Roehampton, we understand the pressures of moving and space limitations in South West London. From student halls and flats to family homes and offices, we’ve built our storage service around real local needs:

• Easy collection from Roehampton, Putney, Barnes, Wandsworth and nearby areas

• Flexible terms to suit temporary or ongoing space problems

Because we are a removals company first, we don’t just store your items – we manage the full process from your door to our facility and back again.

Who Our Storage Service Is For

Homeowners

Decluttering before a sale, renovating, or downsizing? Our storage is ideal for household furniture, white goods, seasonal items and personal effects, giving you breathing space while keeping everything fully insured and professionally handled.

Renters

If you’re between tenancies, moving in with a partner, or waiting for a new place to be ready, we can collect your belongings, store them securely, and deliver them once you have your keys.

Landlords

We help landlords and agents store furniture and equipment between lets, during refurbishments, or when converting properties. We can also assist with partial clearances and re-delivery once works are complete.

Businesses

From documents and archives to office furniture and equipment, our storage is suited to SMEs, tradespeople and online retailers needing clean, secure space without the commitment of a long commercial lease.

Students

Students at Roehampton, Kingston and other local universities use our service to store belongings over the summer, during placements or gap years. We can collect from halls or shared houses and deliver back when term starts.

What You Can Store with Us

Items Typically Included

• Household furniture – sofas, beds, wardrobes, tables, chairs
• Appliances – washing machines, fridges, microwaves (drained and dry)
• Boxes of clothes, books, ornaments and personal items
• Office furniture – desks, chairs, filing cabinets, shelving
• Business stock, tools and equipment (subject to safety rules)

Items We Cannot Store

For safety, legal and insurance reasons, some items are excluded from storage. These typically include:

• Perishable goods (food or items that can rot, attract pests or mould)
• Flammable, explosive or hazardous materials (fuels, gases, chemicals)
• Illegal goods or anything obtained unlawfully
• Live animals, plants or any living organisms

If you are unsure about a particular item, we will give clear advice before your booking so everything is compliant and covered.

Our Step-by-Step Storage Process

1. Enquiry & Quote

Contact us by phone or online with a rough list of what you need to store and your preferred dates. We’ll ask a few questions about access, volume and any special items, then provide a clear, no-obligation quote that explains your storage and transport costs.

2. Survey – Virtual or Onsite

For larger storage jobs, we recommend a quick video or onsite survey. This allows us to assess volume accurately, plan vehicle sizes, and identify any access issues such as stairs or parking. A proper survey means no surprises on moving day and helps us optimise your storage space to keep costs sensible.

3. Packing & Preparation

You can pack your own boxes, or we can provide a professional packing service. We use sturdy cartons, export wrap and protective materials for fragile or high-value items. Furniture is wrapped and protected to avoid scuffs and dust in storage. Each item or box is labelled so we can retrieve and redeliver efficiently.

4. Loading & Transport

Our trained removals team will load your items safely, using blankets, straps and trolleys as required. Everything is transported in our purpose-equipped vehicles, under our goods in transit insurance, from your property in Roehampton to our secure storage facility.

5. Unloading, Storage & Redelivery

On arrival, we unload carefully and place your items into your designated storage space. When you’re ready, just book a return date and we’ll deliver your belongings back to your new address, placing items into the right rooms for an easy move-in.

Transparent, Fair Pricing

We aim to keep pricing straightforward and transparent. Your quote will normally cover:

• Collection from your Roehampton property or business
• Transport to and from our storage facility
• Weekly or monthly storage charges based on the volume used
• Optional packing materials and packing service

Costs depend on how much space you use, the level of handling required, and the length of time in storage. We’ll always explain the options so you can decide between compact stacking to save on space, or extra room for frequent access. There are no hidden surcharges.

Why Use Professional Storage Instead of DIY or Casual Man-and-Van?

While self-storage and casual man-and-van options can seem cheaper at first glance, they often don’t include:

• Trained staff who know how to protect and stack belongings safely
• Fully insured transport and storage for your goods
• Proper inventories, labelling and tracking of what’s in store
• Planned loading so items are accessible and left in good condition

With Roehampton Man and Van, you get a complete service from your door to secure storage and back again. That reduces the risk of damage, missed payments, or access problems, and saves you time, effort and multiple trips.

Insurance and Professional Standards

Your belongings are important to you, so we treat them with respect and care. Our service includes:

• Goods in transit insurance while we are transporting your items
• Public liability cover for work in and around your property
• Trained, experienced removals staff who handle items correctly

We follow industry best practices for wrapping, lifting and loading, and we’re happy to explain exactly how your items will be protected before you book. Documentation can be provided on request for landlords, agents or business clients.

Care, Protection and Sustainability

We focus on minimising risk and waste throughout your storage journey:

• Use of furniture blankets, mattress covers and export wrap to prevent damage
• Careful stacking to avoid crushing or warping items during longer storage periods
• Re-use of durable packing materials where practical to reduce waste
• Routing collections and deliveries efficiently to limit unnecessary journeys

We encourage customers to use strong, reusable cartons and proper labelling, which not only protects your items but also helps us work more efficiently and responsibly.

Common Storage Use Cases in Roehampton

Moving House

Chains break, completion dates shift and new builds get delayed. Our storage provides a safety net so you can move out on time, keep your buyer happy and move into your next property when it’s ready, without living among boxes.

Office and Business Moves

When refurbishing or relocating, our storage allows you to remove surplus furniture and equipment, keep trading with minimal disruption, and phase your move sensibly instead of trying to do everything in one day.

Renovations and Refits

Protect your furniture and possessions from dust, paint and accidental damage during building work. We can clear the rooms affected, store items securely, and return everything once your contractors are finished.

Urgent or Short-Notice Storage

Life doesn’t always give much warning. If you need to vacate a property quickly due to a sale, tenancy issue or personal reason, we can often provide rapid collection and short-term storage to give you time to sort out your next step.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does storage in Roehampton cost?

Costs depend on three main factors: how much space you need, how long you need it for, and whether you require collection, packing or redelivery. We typically price storage by volume, so you only pay for the space you use. Transport and any packing services are quoted separately so you can see exactly where your money goes. For an accurate figure, contact us with a list of items or arrange a quick survey and we’ll provide a clear, written quotation with no hidden charges.

Do you offer same-day or urgent storage?

Where our schedule allows, we can often arrange same-day or next-day collection and storage in Roehampton and nearby areas. This is particularly useful if a sale completes sooner than expected or you need to vacate a property at short notice. Availability will depend on vehicle and crew scheduling, so it’s always best to call as early as possible. Even if we are fully booked for full packing, we can usually offer a basic collection and storage option to get you out on time.

Are my belongings insured while in storage?

Yes. Your items are covered by our goods in transit insurance while being moved, and by our storage cover while they are in our facility, subject to policy terms and declared values. We also hold public liability cover for work at your property. We’ll outline the main conditions before you book and can provide documentation if required for landlords, business clients or your own records. We always recommend you highlight any particularly high-value items so we can confirm appropriate cover.

What’s included in your storage service?

Our standard service includes collection from your home, office or student accommodation (if requested), secure transport to our facility, unloading, and safe storage of your belongings for the agreed period. On return, we deliver to your chosen address and place items in the relevant rooms. Optional extras include a professional packing service, supply of boxes and materials, dismantling and reassembly of furniture, and regular access arrangements if you need to visit your stored items.

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

A casual man-and-van typically offers transport only, with limited protection, planning or insurance. Our service is a full removals and storage solution. You benefit from trained staff, proper wrapping and loading, documented inventory, fully insured transport and secure storage, plus structured redelivery when you’re ready. We manage the whole process so you’re not left organising separate vans, self-storage units and access, which can quickly become more expensive and time-consuming than using a professional provider from the outset.

How far in advance should I book storage?

For the best choice of dates and to keep costs down, we recommend booking at least one to two weeks in advance, especially during busy periods such as summer and month-end. That said, we understand moves don’t always go to plan, so we do keep some flexibility for short-notice jobs. Even if your dates are uncertain, it’s worth talking to us early so we can pencil you in, advise on packing, and adjust your booking as your situation becomes clearer.
