Local Household Storage Experts in Tottenham Hale
Our facility is conveniently located for customers in Tottenham Hale, Seven Sisters, Walthamstow, Edmonton and wider North London. As a local, owner-managed company, we understand the pressures of London living – small flats, limited loft or garage space, and frequent moves.
Because we move and store furniture and personal belongings every day, we know how to protect them from damage, damp and dust. Our storage units are monitored, alarmed and access-controlled, and our professional team is on hand to advise you on the right size unit and the most efficient way to store your items.
Who Our Household Storage Service Is For
Homeowners
If you are selling, decluttering for viewings or in a chain with a gap between completion dates, our short and long-term storage gives you a safe place for furniture, white goods and boxes while you transition between homes.
Renters
For renters facing a change of tenancy date, moving into a smaller property or going travelling, we offer flexible month-to-month storage. Keep your belongings secure without committing to a long lease or leaving items with friends or family.
Landlords
Landlords in Tottenham Hale use our storage to hold furniture between lets, store seasonal items, or keep replacement appliances and furnishings ready for quick turnaround of tenancies. We provide invoices and documentation suitable for business records.
Businesses
Local businesses, tradespeople and online retailers rely on our household and business storage for stock, marketing materials, excess office furniture and archiving. Access is straightforward, with trolleys and loading bays available, and we can combine storage with collection and delivery if required.
Students
Students from UCL, University of Westminster, Middlesex and other London universities use our units for term-time or holiday storage. Instead of carting belongings home every term, you can store bedding, books, clothes and small furniture securely until you need them again.

Our Step-by-Step Storage & Removals Process
1. Enquiry & Quote
Contact Storage Tottenham Hale by phone, email or our online form with a rough idea of what you need to store and for how long. We will ask a few simple questions about the volume of items, access requirements and any special handling needs. Based on this, we provide a clear, no-obligation quote outlining unit size options, collection or self-drop-off choices, and any packing services you may require.
2. Survey – Virtual or Onsite
For larger households or complex moves into storage, we recommend a virtual or onsite survey. One of our experienced surveyors will assess the volume of goods, access at your property and any fragile or bulky items. This allows us to recommend the most suitable unit size, plan the move efficiently and avoid surprises on the day.
3. Packing & Preparation
You can pack your own items, or we can provide a professional packing service. Our team uses strong cartons, bubble wrap and furniture covers to protect your belongings. Mattresses, sofas and delicate items are wrapped, appliances are secured and disconnected, and all boxes are clearly labelled. We can also supply packing materials if you prefer to do it yourself.
4. Loading & Transport
On collection day, our trained removals crew arrives in a suitably sized vehicle. Floors, banisters and doors are protected where required, and items are carried out carefully, loaded securely and protected with transit blankets and straps. We operate fully insured vehicles with GPS tracking and experienced drivers familiar with the Tottenham Hale area and wider London road network.
5. Unloading & Placement in Your Unit
At our facility, we unload everything directly into your allocated unit. Items are stacked to maximise space while maintaining safe access, with heavier items at the bottom and fragile pieces protected. We can work from your priorities so that items you may need sooner are placed towards the front. When you are ready to move out of storage, we can reverse the process and deliver back to your new home or office.
Transparent Pricing & Flexible Terms
Our pricing is straightforward, with no hidden extras. Costs are based on:
- Unit size and type (from small lockers to large rooms)
- Length of storage (short-term or ongoing)
- Whether you require collection, delivery and/or packing
- Any additional protection or special handling requested
We will always explain the full cost breakdown in advance so you can budget with confidence. Discounts may be available for pre-paid long-term storage. We invoice monthly and provide clear terms and conditions from the outset.
Why Choose Professional Storage over DIY Options
Using a professional storage and removals company offers several advantages over informal DIY or casual man-and-van options:
- Fully insured service, including goods in transit and public liability cover
- Trained teams experienced in handling heavy, awkward and fragile items safely
- Purpose-built, monitored storage units – not garages, sheds or damp lock-ups
- Proper wrapping, packing and stacking techniques to minimise risk of damage
- Clear paperwork, contracts and invoicing for your records
- Local support and accountability from a long-established Tottenham Hale operator
Insurance & Professional Standards
We take the protection of your belongings seriously. Storage Tottenham Hale operates with:
- Goods in transit insurance covering your items while being moved between your property and our facility
- Public liability cover to protect you and your property during our work on site
- Trained, uniformed staff following industry best practice for lifting, packing and loading
- Secure premises with CCTV, alarm systems and controlled access
We will explain the scope and limits of our insurance so you understand exactly what is covered and can arrange any additional cover if required.
Care, Protection & Sustainability
We handle every item as if it were our own. Floors, doorways and bannisters can be protected during collection and delivery. Furniture and mattresses are wrapped, and fragile items are carefully packed to minimise risk. Where possible, we use reusable transit blankets, re-usable crates and responsibly sourced packing materials to reduce waste. We consolidate journeys where feasible to cut down on unnecessary mileage and emissions, while still maintaining reliable, punctual service.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does household storage in Tottenham Hale cost?
Costs depend mainly on the size of unit you need and how long you plan to store for. Smaller lockers suitable for boxes and a few small items are cheaper, while larger units for full households cost more. Additional services such as collection, delivery and packing are priced separately. We always provide a clear written quote before you decide, with no hidden extras. For an accurate figure, contact us with a brief list or photos of what you need to store and your approximate timescales.
Can you provide same-day or urgent storage?
Where capacity allows, we can often arrange same-day or next-day storage for urgent situations such as last-minute tenancy changes, landlord issues or unexpected travel. If you can bring items to our Tottenham Hale facility yourself, we may be able to allocate a unit immediately. For collections, availability will depend on our vehicle schedule, but we always do our best to accommodate emergencies. Call us as soon as possible so we can check space, vehicle and crew availability and propose the quickest solution.
Are my belongings insured while in storage?
Yes. We provide goods in transit insurance while your belongings are being moved, and cover within our premises in line with our terms of business. There are standard limits and exclusions, which we explain clearly before you sign. For particularly high-value items, you may wish to arrange additional cover through your own insurer. Our facility also benefits from CCTV, alarms and controlled access to further protect your possessions. If you have specific insurance requirements, let us know so we can discuss options in detail.
What is included in your household storage service?
Our core service includes the rental of a secure storage unit in our Tottenham Hale facility, access during opening hours and basic advice on choosing the right size and arranging your contents. Many customers also choose optional services such as professional packing, furniture wrapping, collection from their property and later redelivery. We supply or can provide packing materials, and our team can handle the entire process from door to store if you prefer. All details are specified clearly in your quote before you commit.
How is this different from a basic man-and-van service?
A casual man-and-van typically offers transport only, often without formal contracts, limited or no insurance, and no secure storage facility. At Storage Tottenham Hale, you benefit from trained staff, fully insured vehicles, professional packing options and purpose-built, monitored storage units. We provide clear documentation, agreed timelines and accountability throughout. This significantly reduces the risk of damage, loss or disputes, and ensures your belongings are stored in appropriate conditions rather than in temporary or unsuitable spaces.
How far in advance should I book storage?
For planned moves or renovations, we recommend booking 1–3 weeks in advance, especially during busy periods such as summer and month-end. This gives us time to arrange a survey if needed, reserve the right unit size and schedule vehicles and crews. However, we understand that plans can change quickly, so we always keep some flexibility for short-notice bookings. Even if your dates are not fixed, it is worth discussing options early so we can reserve provisional space and adjust when your plans firm up.
