Local Expertise in Wood Green
Based in Wood Green, we know the local area, traffic patterns and property types inside out. From compact flats near the High Road to larger family homes around Alexandra Palace and offices along Green Lanes, we understand the practical challenges of access, parking and tight stairwells.
This local knowledge lets us plan collections and deliveries efficiently, minimising disruption and keeping your costs fair and transparent. We also work with local landlords and agents, so we’re used to key collections, check-in/check-out timings and building rules.
Who Our Secure Storage Is For
Homeowners
If you’re moving house, renovating, or decluttering to prepare for sale, our secure storage keeps furniture and personal effects safe and out of the way. We can collect directly from your property, store items for as long as needed, then deliver to your new home when you’re ready.
Renters
Tenancy ending but your new place isn’t ready yet? We regularly help renters bridge the gap between moves, storing belongings safely for a few days, weeks or months. We’re used to working around check-out inspections and tight move-out deadlines.
Landlords
Landlords often need a reliable storage partner when changing from furnished to unfurnished lets (or vice versa). We can remove, label and store furniture sets, white goods and appliances, then return them when required, keeping your properties clear and presentable.
Businesses
From online retailers to local offices, we provide secure storage for stock, documents, event equipment and spare furniture. Our service suits businesses who need professional handling, goods in transit insurance and predictable pricing, without being tied into long warehouse leases.
Students
Students at local universities and colleges use our secure storage during summer breaks, gap years or term-time relocations. We can collect boxes, suitcases, bikes and small furniture from halls or shared houses in Wood Green and nearby areas, and deliver them back at the start of term.
What You Can Store with Us
We handle most typical household and business items, including:
- Furniture – sofas, beds, wardrobes, tables and chairs
- Boxes of clothes, books, kitchenware and personal items
- Office furniture, filing cabinets and archive boxes
- IT equipment, monitors, printers and peripherals
- Retail stock, promotional materials and display stands
- Bicycles, sports equipment and small gym items
What Cannot Be Stored
To protect all customers and comply with regulations, some items are excluded from storage. We cannot accept:
- Perishable goods or food that can spoil
- Flammable, explosive or hazardous materials (including gas bottles, paints, solvents and fireworks)
- Illegal goods or stolen property
- Live animals or plants
- Cash, high-value jewellery or irreplaceable documents (such as wills and original passports)
- Items that are excessively damp, infested or likely to cause damage to other goods
If you’re unsure about a specific item, just ask and we’ll advise before collection.
Our Secure Storage Process – Step by Step
1. Enquiry & Quote
Contact us by phone or online with a rough list of what you need to store and your location in or around Wood Green. We’ll talk through your needs, timescales and access, then provide a clear, no-obligation quote based on the space and services required.
2. Survey – Virtual or Onsite
For larger jobs, we may recommend a virtual or onsite survey. This helps us confirm the volume of items, access conditions (stairs, lifts, parking) and any special handling requirements. Accurate surveying means we send the right team, vehicle and packing materials, avoiding delays on the day.
3. Packing & Preparation
You can pack your own boxes, or choose our professional packing service. Our team uses strong cartons, protective wrapping and furniture covers to minimise the risk of damage. Each item or box is labelled clearly, ready for organized loading and easy retrieval from storage later.
4. Loading & Transport
On collection day, our trained movers protect floors, walls and doorways where needed. Items are loaded methodically onto our vehicles, secured using ties and blankets. Your belongings are then transported directly to our secure storage facility, covered throughout by our goods in transit insurance.
5. Unloading & Placement in Storage
At the facility, we unload and place items into your designated, secure storage area. Everything is stored in a clean, dry environment under CCTV and controlled access. When you’re ready for your items back, we simply reverse the process and deliver to your new address, unloading into the rooms you specify.
Transparent and Fair Pricing
We believe secure storage should be straightforward to budget for. Our pricing is based on:
- The volume of items (space required)
- Length of storage (short or long term)
- Collection and delivery distance from Wood Green
- Optional services such as packing and materials
Before you commit, you’ll receive a clear written quote outlining costs, so you know exactly what you’re paying for. There are no hidden charges for basic access or standard insurance cover.
Why Choose Professional Secure Storage Over DIY
Hiring a casual van or doing it yourself may look cheaper on paper, but it often leads to damaged items, injuries and unexpected costs. With a professional service like ours you benefit from:
- Trained staff who know how to lift and protect furniture safely
- Proper vehicles with securing points and protective equipment
- Goods in transit insurance and public liability cover
- Organised labelling and inventory for easier retrieval
- Guaranteed, time-efficient collection and delivery slots
This approach reduces the risk of loss, damage and stress, while keeping your belongings in a well-managed environment rather than a basic lock-up or friend’s garage.
Insurance and Professional Standards
As a responsible storage and removals provider, we operate to high professional standards for your peace of mind:
- Goods in transit insurance covers your belongings while being moved to and from storage.
- Public liability cover protects you and your property during collection and delivery.
- Our teams are trained in safe handling, lifting and loading techniques.
- Vehicles and equipment are maintained regularly to professional standards.
We will happily explain the scope of cover and any limits before you book, so you understand exactly how your goods are protected.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We treat your belongings as if they were our own. Furniture is wrapped, mattresses are bagged, and fragile items receive extra cushioning. We use reusable protective materials wherever possible and recycle cardboard and plastics responsibly.
By consolidating collections and planning efficient routes around Wood Green and North London, we reduce unnecessary mileage and fuel use. Our aim is to provide a high level of care not only for your possessions, but also for the environment.
Real-World Uses of Our Secure Storage
Moving House
Chain delays, renovation work or downsizing often mean you need to store some or all of your belongings temporarily. We can coordinate directly with your moving dates so your items go from your old home into storage, then out to your new address when the time is right.
Office Relocation
Businesses relocating within Wood Green or across London use our storage to stage their move. Desks, chairs, filing and IT can be stored and delivered in phases, allowing your team to keep working while the new space is prepared.
Urgent or Last-Minute Moves
Life doesn’t always give much notice. Evictions, emergency repairs or sudden relocations can all require fast, reliable storage. Subject to availability, we can often arrange same-day or next-day collection in Wood Green, providing a secure place for your belongings at short notice.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does secure storage in Wood Green cost?
The cost depends on three main factors: how much space you need, how long you need it for, and whether you’d like us to handle collection, packing and delivery. Smaller loads for a few weeks will naturally cost less than a full household stored for several months. We don’t offer one-size-fits-all prices; instead, we provide tailored quotes after a quick discussion or survey. That way you only pay for the space and services you genuinely need, with no hidden extras.
Can you provide same-day or urgent secure storage?
In many cases, yes. If you’re in or near Wood Green and need storage at short notice, call us as soon as possible. We’ll check vehicle and unit availability and do our best to arrange same-day or next-day collection. Urgent bookings are common when tenancies end unexpectedly, completion dates move, or emergency repairs are needed. While we can’t guarantee availability every time, being local means we can often respond faster than larger, central depots.
Are my belongings insured while in storage?
Your items are covered by our goods in transit insurance while being moved to and from our facility, and we maintain appropriate cover for items in our care. Insurance is there to protect against unforeseen events, but it doesn’t replace sensible packing and handling, which is why we use trained staff and quality materials. We’ll explain what is included as standard, any limits or excesses, and discuss optional upgrades if you have particularly high-value items that require additional cover.
What’s included in your secure storage service?
As standard, we provide a secure, clean storage unit, monitored access, and basic insurance cover for your goods. Most customers also choose our collection and delivery service within Wood Green, so they don’t need to hire a van. You can add professional packing, supply of boxes and materials, and partial or full inventories depending on your needs. We’ll set everything out clearly in your quote, so you know exactly what’s included before you decide.
How is your service different from a basic man-and-van?
A casual man-and-van will usually just move items from A to B, with limited protection, no dedicated storage facility and often minimal insurance. Our service combines professional removals expertise with purpose-built secure storage in Wood Green. You get trained teams, proper materials, goods in transit insurance, controlled access units and clear documentation. This reduces the risk of damage or disputes and provides a far more reliable option for valuable or sentimental belongings.
How far in advance should I book secure storage?
For the best choice of dates and unit sizes, we recommend booking at least one to two weeks in advance, especially during busy periods such as summer and month-end. However, we understand that moves and refurbishments don’t always run to plan. If you need storage at short notice, contact us and we’ll do everything we can to accommodate you. The earlier you get in touch, the more flexibility we’ll have with scheduling and space.
