ROOM TO KEEP GROWING
Storage that supports your business.
Extra storage can help when business belongings outgrow your existing premises. It may be seasonal inventory, equipment between jobs, office furniture during a move or supplies that you need to keep organised away from your everyday workspace.
Begin with the purpose of the space. Tell us what will be stored, the approximate volume, how often you need access and the size of the items involved. For palletised goods, include the loaded pallet dimensions rather than the pallet footprint alone.
We can then discuss suitable available storage and the rental arrangements. Please explain any special handling needs or unusual materials before booking. Storage suitability should be agreed in advance, especially where the contents need particular environmental conditions.

Keep tools and materials organised.
Storage can help free up a van, garage or workspace. The right arrangement starts with knowing what you want to bring, how it will be packed and how you expect to use the space.
Between projects
Create an inventory of the tools and equipment you need to store between jobs. Separate everyday kit from less frequently used equipment so your storage layout reflects how you actually work.
Before bringing materials
Check that each material is suitable and allowed. Tell us about the contents, packaging and any handling requirements. Hazardous materials and anything creating a fire risk are subject to restrictions.
Plan your collection routine
Explain the kind of vehicle you will use and how often you expect to visit. Confirm the access and loading arrangements for the specific storage space before planning regular collections.
FOR STOCK THAT NEEDS A HOME
Make room for busy periods.
Seasonal peaks, a new range or a larger stock order can put pressure on your existing space. A separate storage area may help you organise stock without allowing it to spread through the rest of your premises.
Group items by product, project or season, and keep a record of quantities and box locations. Put the lines you expect to collect first where they are easy to reach. Avoid relying on memory when several boxes look the same.
Tell us if goods are sensitive to temperature or moisture, or require any special conditions. Ask about suitability before moving them into a container. Delivery acceptance, handling equipment and any operational use of the space should also be discussed separately.

WHEN YOUR WORKPLACE IS CHANGING
Office moves and business changes.
Relocating a business involves more than choosing a new address. Desks, chairs, shelving and boxed equipment may need somewhere to go while the next premises are prepared. A clear inventory helps you separate essential working equipment from items that can be stored temporarily.
Label furniture parts together and keep fixings in clearly marked bags. Record which team or room the contents belong to, so they can be returned in a sensible order. If documents, electronics or other sensitive items are involved, discuss the storage conditions and suitability before arranging the move.
Share the expected dates and whether you will move everything at once or in phases. We will discuss available space; your chosen transport and handling arrangements should be planned alongside it.
