Consider mobile storage for extra convenience


When you’re in the middle of major building work, stress levels can be high – so the last thing you need is hassle sorting out storage.

This is why you might want to check out our mobile storage service, which could save you time, effort and stress.

The idea is simple. Instead of having to lug all of your stuff over to a storage facility, we come to you. There’s no need to pull a muscle shifting boxes or spend money hiring a van.


Simply book a collection date and time, and our experienced team of friendly movers will come right to your door. They’ll bring with them a mobile storage unit of your chosen size, carefully pack it with your stuff and take it to one of our secure storage facilities. When your renovations are complete, we’ll bring it
back – so you can unpack and start enjoying the fruits of your labour.

Ultimately, this gives you the best of both worlds. You get the flexibility and affordability of self-storage, as well as the convenience of what is essentially a home collection and delivery service.

Key things to look for when searching for renovation storage in London


Price, location and security are likely to be at the top of your priorities list when searching for storage. Take a look below for some tips and advice on each of these.

Price

It’s always smart to be wary of bargain basement prices in general, as you’ll usually get what you pay for. The same goes for storage, but this doesn’t mean you have to pay a fortune to store your stuff while tackling home improvements.

Aim to find good quality storage facilities that don’t lock you into a long-term contract, as this isn’t usually needed for renovation projects.

At Kiwi Storage, we offer units at affordable prices where the minimum commitment is just a month.

Location

Accidentally put something you need into storage? The last thing you want is a long car journey just to go get it. The same goes for moving your stuff in and out of storage. You’ve got enough on your plate with the renovation work, without spending precious time travelling between your home and a far-flung storage facility.


So, you should aim to find a convenient location close to your home, looking for those with good transport links and parking. Check out our locations for renovation storage in London here.


Security

If you’ll be leaving the contents of your home in storage, you need to be completely confident that everything will be safe and secure. After all, you might be storing valuables, or things that have great sentimental value for you and your family.


You’ll need a clean, dry and climate controlled unit, which is both secure and easy for you (and you only) to access when you need to.


Here are some things to check when researching storage facilities:

  • 24/7 CCTV, access control and security
  • Units are clean and in good condition, with no maintenance issues
  • SSAUK (Self Storage Association) approved, which means that the facility meets fire safety and other security standards
  • Full insurance cover is in place to protect your belongings just in case the worst should happen.
