At Removal Companies Docklands, we provide secure, flexible storage solutions for homes and businesses across Docklands and the surrounding East London areas. Whether you need short-term storage while you move, or a longer-term option to free up space, our professional, fully insured service is designed to be straightforward, transparent and reliable.
We know Docklands inside out – from new-build apartments and riverside developments to converted warehouses and office complexes. Our storage service is tailored to local living: limited parking, concierge times, lift restrictions, and busy roads. We plan around these details so your collection and delivery run smoothly.
Your goods are stored in clean, dry, alarmed facilities with controlled access. Our teams handle everything from collection to re-delivery, so you don’t have to hire a van, navigate traffic or worry about lifting heavy items yourself.
Our storage solutions are suitable for:
We can provide storage as a standalone service or combined with our removals and packing options for a complete door-to-door solution.
We handle most household and office items, including:
For safety, legal and hygiene reasons, we cannot store:
If you are unsure about a particular item, we will advise you clearly before collection.
We follow a clear, structured process so you always know what to expect.
Contact us by phone or online with a rough list of what you need to store and your preferred dates. We will ask simple questions about your property access, lift availability and timing. Based on the volume, duration and services required, we provide a clear written quote with no hidden extras.
For larger storage moves or whole-property contents, we arrange a virtual or onsite survey. One of our experienced surveyors will assess volumes, note any fragile or bulky items, and plan access and parking in Docklands. This allows us to send the right team and vehicle, and confirm the storage space you genuinely need so you don’t overpay.
You can choose from:
We label boxes clearly, wrap furniture in protective materials and prepare an inventory so we know exactly what is stored and where.
On collection day, our trained moving team arrives on time with the correct vehicle and protective equipment. We protect floors and doorways where needed, then carefully load your items. Everything is securely tied and cushioned inside the vehicle to minimise movement in transit. We transport your goods directly to our storage facility and unload them into your allocated space.
Your items are stacked safely, with heavier pieces at the bottom and fragile boxes on top. When you are ready for your belongings back, simply book a re-delivery. We will bring everything to your new property, unload and place items in the rooms you specify. If combined with a full move, we can also unpack and remove used packing materials.
We believe in clear, honest pricing. Our quotes typically include:
Costs depend on how much you store, how long for, access requirements and the level of service you choose. We explain all charges upfront, so you can compare like-for-like with other options. There are no surprise fees for basic handling or standard insurance cover.
Using a professional storage and removals company offers several advantages over hiring a cheap van or a casual man-and-van service:
While DIY might appear cheaper at first glance, the risk of damage, injury, multiple trips and unplanned costs can quickly outweigh any savings.
We take our responsibilities seriously and operate to professional industry standards. As part of our service, we provide:
We will explain the level of cover included as standard and can discuss additional cover if you have particularly high-value items. All details are provided in writing for your peace of mind.
We treat your possessions as if they were our own. Furniture is wrapped, mattresses are bagged, and fragile items are carefully packed and clearly marked. We use re-usable protective materials where possible and aim to minimise waste. Cardboard boxes are recycled after use, and we plan routes efficiently to reduce unnecessary mileage.
Where customers are decluttering, we can recommend responsible options for donating or recycling unwanted items, helping to keep usable furniture and goods out of landfill.
If completion dates don’t line up, or you are moving into a property that needs work, storage bridges the gap. We can move everything out, store it safely, and deliver once your new home is ready.
Businesses use our storage for office moves, refurbishments and temporary downsizing. We can store desks, chairs, filing cabinets and IT equipment while your new space is being prepared, then deliver and set up on your chosen date.
Sometimes plans change quickly – a tenancy ends unexpectedly, a sale completes faster than expected, or building work overruns. Subject to availability, we can arrange rapid collection and storage, helping you avoid rushed decisions or unsuitable short-term arrangements.
Storage costs are based on three main factors: how much space you need, how long you store for, and whether you require collection, packing and re-delivery. We typically charge a weekly or monthly rate per unit of space, plus a one-off cost for collection and return. Smaller loads for a few weeks are often more affordable than people expect. We will assess your items carefully so you only pay for the space you actually need, and we provide a clear written quote before you commit.
Subject to availability, we can usually help with same-day or urgent storage in Docklands and nearby areas. If you are facing a tight deadline – for example, keys must be returned today or builders are arriving tomorrow – call us as early as you can. We will check vehicle and team availability and give you realistic options. In urgent cases, we may start with an essential collection and then arrange further packing or sorting later to keep everything manageable and properly protected.
Yes. Your belongings are covered by our goods in transit insurance while being moved, and insured while in our care at the storage facility, subject to our terms and conditions. We will explain what is included as standard and ask you for an approximate total value of your goods. If you have particularly valuable items, we can discuss additional cover or specific arrangements. All insurance details are confirmed in writing so you know exactly how you are protected throughout the storage period.
Our standard storage service includes collection from your property, transport to our secure facility, careful stacking and storage of your items, and re-delivery when you are ready. We can also provide packing materials, full or part packing, dismantling and reassembly of furniture, and disposal of unwanted items by prior arrangement. We create an inventory of stored goods so nothing is missed. The aim is to handle as much of the work as you want us to, leaving you free to focus on the rest of your move or project.
Compared with a casual man-and-van, we offer a structured, accountable service. Our professional teams are trained, fully insured and experienced in handling everything from fragile items to heavy furniture in Docklands properties. We provide written quotes, agreed dates and clear communication throughout. Your belongings are stored in a secure, monitored facility, not left in an unknown lock-up. We also offer packing, furniture protection, inventories and proper insurance cover – all of which significantly reduce the risk of damage, loss or stress during what is often a sensitive time.
For the best choice of dates, we recommend booking storage at least one to two weeks in advance, especially in busy periods such as the end of the month or summer. However, we understand that plans can change quickly, so we will always do our best to accommodate shorter notice. Once you have an idea of your moving or refurbishment dates, get in touch and we can provisionally reserve space and a collection slot. This gives you flexibility while ensuring you have a reliable storage solution in place.
