Who Our Storage Service Is For

Homeowners

Renovating, decluttering before a sale, or downsizing? We can store furniture, white goods, seasonal items, and personal belongings while you get your property straight. We can also coordinate collection on completion day and redelivery to your new home.

Renters

If you’re between tenancies, relocating for work, or moving into a smaller place, our storage gives you a safe home for your possessions until you’re settled. We can work directly with landlords or agents where needed for key collection and access.

Landlords

Need to clear a property quickly after a tenancy ends or before refurbishment? We offer fast, efficient removals and storage of furniture and appliances, keeping them safe until you’re ready to refurnish or sell.

Businesses

From sole traders to growing companies, we provide business storage for documents, exhibition stands, tools, stock, and office furniture. We can arrange scheduled collections and deliveries and help you reorganise your workplace around the stored items.

Students

Heading home for the holidays or going on placement? Instead of dragging everything back and forth, store your belongings securely in Freezywater. We can collect from halls or shared houses and return everything when you’re back.

What We Can Store

We can safely store most household and business items, including:

• Sofas, beds, wardrobes, tables and chairs
• Boxes of clothes, books, files and personal effects
• TVs, computers, and general electronics (properly packed)
• Kitchen appliances such as fridges, freezers, washing machines and cookers
• Office furniture, filing cabinets and archive boxes
• Tools, equipment and non-hazardous stock

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 paint thinners, gas bottles, fuel)
• Illegal goods or items of unclear ownership
• Live animals, plants or any biological material
• Cash, jewellery, or high-value items best suited to specialist storage or safes

If you are unsure about a particular item, we will advise before collection so there are no surprises on the day.

How Our Storage Process Works

1. Enquiry & Quote

You contact us with basic details: what you need to store, your addresses, access issues and timings. We then provide a clear estimate based on the volume, collection work required, and likely storage duration. There is no obligation at this stage.

2. Survey (Virtual or Onsite)

For larger jobs, we may carry out a short video survey or visit your property in Freezywater. This helps us measure accurately, plan parking and access, and identify any fragile or complex items. Accurate surveying means we quote properly and send the right team and vehicle.

3. Packing & Preparation

On the agreed day, our trained movers arrive on time. We can provide packing as an optional extra or you can pack your own boxes. We use blankets, covers and wrapping to protect furniture and delicate items. Everything is labelled clearly so we can find it easily when it comes back out of storage.

4. Loading & Transport

Your belongings are carefully loaded into our vehicles and secured to prevent movement during transit. Our vans are kept clean and dry and are covered by goods in transit insurance. We then transport everything directly to our storage facility.

5. Unloading & Storage Placement

At the facility, we unload your goods into designated storage space. Items are stacked safely, with heavy pieces at the bottom and fragile items protected. We keep a record of what is stored for you. When you are ready for redelivery, we reverse the process and bring your belongings back, placing them in the rooms you specify.

Transparent Storage Pricing

We believe in clear, straightforward pricing, with no hidden extras. Our storage costs typically break down into:

• Collection and loading fee (based on time, number of movers and vehicle size)
• Weekly or monthly storage charge (based on the volume of goods stored)
• Optional packing materials and packing service
• Return delivery fee when you want your items back

We’ll explain all charges in writing before you commit. If you extend or shorten your storage period, we adjust the cost accordingly and always discuss changes in advance.

Why Choose Professional Storage Over DIY or Casual Man-and-Van

Hiring a casual van and stacking goods in a friend’s garage or a basic lock-up may seem cheaper, but it often leads to damage, confusion and stress. With our professional service you get:

• Trained handlers who know how to lift and protect furniture and fragile items
• A fully insured service with goods in transit insurance
• Clean, dry, monitored storage rather than damp or unsecured space
• Proper inventory and labelling so items are easy to locate and return
• One point of contact managing the entire process from door to store and back again

This reduces the risk of damage and saves you time, heavy lifting, and repeated van trips.

Insurance and Professional Standards

We take our responsibilities seriously. Our service includes:

• Goods in transit insurance while your belongings are being moved to and from storage
• Public liability cover for work in and around your property
• Trained, experienced movers who follow safe lifting and handling practices

We’ll explain what our insurance covers and where you may wish to arrange additional cover for particularly high-value items. Our aim is to give you clear, honest information so you can make informed decisions.

Care, Protection and Sustainability

Your possessions are treated with the same care we’d give our own. We use padded blankets, mattress and sofa covers, and protective wrapping to prevent knocks and scuffs. Items are stacked sensibly to avoid crushing and bending.

We also try to work in a more sustainable way by:

• Reusing sturdy boxes and materials where appropriate
• Offering reusable plastic crates for certain jobs
• Planning routes efficiently to reduce unnecessary mileage
• Donating unwanted items to local charities where customers request

Real-World Storage Use Cases

Moving House with a Gap Between Completion Dates

If you’re selling in Freezywater but your new place isn’t ready, we can collect everything on completion day, store it safely, and then deliver once you get the keys. You only move once, and we handle the timing.

Office Refurbishment or Relocation

Businesses refurbishing or relocating can use our storage to hold desks, chairs, equipment and documents while the new layout is completed. We can phase collections and returns so your operations keep running with minimum disruption.

Urgent or Same-Week Moves

When circumstances change suddenly – a relationship breakdown, job move, or urgent property issue – we can arrange fast collection and storage, giving you breathing space to decide your next step while your belongings remain secure.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does storage in Freezywater cost?

Costs depend on three main factors: how much you’re storing, how long for, and the amount of collection and delivery work involved. We charge a collection fee based on the team and vehicle required, plus a weekly or monthly storage rate based on the volume of your items. Optional services such as packing and materials are priced separately. We’ll assess your needs, provide a clear written quote, and explain how any changes in duration or volume would affect the price before you decide.

Can you provide same-day or urgent storage?

Subject to availability, we can often arrange same-day or short-notice storage in Freezywater, particularly for smaller loads or emergencies. The earlier you call, the easier it is for us to allocate a team and vehicle. For very urgent situations, we may complete an initial collection and then fine-tune the storage details once your goods are safely loaded. There may be a premium for out-of-hours or last-minute work, but we will always discuss this openly before confirming the booking.

Are my belongings insured while in storage?

Your items are covered by our goods in transit insurance while we are moving them to and from storage. The storage facility itself has its own protection measures, and we can outline these when we quote. For standard household goods, this is usually sufficient, but for very high-value items you may wish to inform your own insurer or arrange additional cover. We’ll clearly explain what is and isn’t included so you can decide whether any extra cover is necessary for peace of mind.

What is included in your storage service?

Our service typically includes collection from your property, careful loading by professional movers, transport in insured vehicles, unloading into secure storage, and redelivery when you are ready. Protective blankets and basic wrapping for furniture are included as standard. Optional extras include supplying boxes and packing materials, a full packing service, and dismantling or reassembly of certain furniture. Before you book, we will list exactly what is included in writing, along with any optional services and their costs.

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

A casual man-and-van usually offers transport only, leaving you to find and manage storage yourself. Our service is more comprehensive and professional. We survey your needs, provide trained staff, use proper protective materials, and store your goods in monitored, dry facilities. We’re fully insured, keep records of what’s stored, and manage the whole process from your door to storage and back again. This reduces the risk of damage or loss and saves you time organising separate services.

How far in advance should I book storage?

If possible, it’s best to book one to two weeks ahead, especially during busy periods such as the end of the month or summer. This gives us time to survey, plan access and allocate the right team. However, we know that storage needs can arise suddenly, so we always keep some flexibility for urgent jobs. Even if your dates are not fixed, contact us as early as you can so we can pencil you in and discuss options that suit your likely timeframe.
