How Our Storage Process Works
We follow a clear, structured process so you always know what will happen next.
1. Enquiry & Quote
Contact our Enfield office by phone or online with an outline of what you need to store and for how long. We will ask a few simple questions about volume, access at your property and timings. Based on this, we provide a clear, no‑obligation quote covering collection, storage, and re‑delivery, so you can make an informed decision.
2. Survey – Virtual or Onsite
For larger loads or combined removals and storage, we recommend a virtual or onsite survey. One of our experienced surveyors will assess the items, access, parking and any special requirements such as dismantling, heavy items or fragile pieces. This ensures the right size vehicle, crew and storage space are allocated and helps avoid any surprises on the day.
3. Packing & Preparation
On the agreed date, our trained movers arrive with quality packing materials. Depending on your preference, we can provide:
- Full packing service – We pack everything securely using cartons, wrapping and export-standard materials where needed.
- Part packing service – We pack fragile and high‑value items while you pack the rest.
- Self-packed storage – You pack, and we simply collect and load.
Furniture is blanket-wrapped and protected, and we create an inventory so you know exactly what is in storage.
4. Loading & Transport to Store
Our crew carefully loads your belongings onto our vehicles using protective covers, floor runners and equipment to prevent damage. Everything is securely strapped and transported directly to our storage facility. Because we are fully insured with goods in transit insurance, your possessions are protected during every journey.
5. Unloading, Storage & Final Delivery
At our warehouse, items are unloaded, placed into labelled storage units or containers, and stacked systematically for safe storage and easy retrieval. When you are ready, simply book a delivery date. We then bring everything back, unload and place items in the rooms or areas you specify, just as we would on a standard removal.
Transparent Storage Pricing
We believe in clear, straightforward pricing for storage in Enfield. Costs are typically made up of:
- A collection and loading fee (based on time, access and crew size)
- A weekly or monthly storage charge (linked to the volume of goods)
- A re‑delivery fee when you are ready to receive your items back
There are no hidden extras for standard access and normal handling. Any additional services – such as professional packing, disposal of unwanted items or specialist handling – are always quoted and agreed in advance.
Why Choose Professional Storage Over DIY or Basic Man-and-Van
Self-storage or casual man-and-van services can seem cheaper at first glance, but often end up costing more in time, risk and stress. With Movers Enfield you benefit from:
- Professional crews who move and protect furniture every day
- Proper dismantling and reassembly of larger items
- Systematic labelling and inventories so nothing goes missing
- Fully insured handling and transport
- Secure, monitored storage rather than open or shared spaces
DIY attempts can lead to damage, injuries or poorly packed units that waste space. Our approach is efficient, safer and better for the long‑term condition of your belongings.
Insurance and Professional Standards
We take our responsibility for your possessions seriously. Movers Enfield operates with:
- Goods in transit insurance – covering your items while they are being moved between your property and our storage.
- Public liability cover – protecting you and your property during our work on site.
- Trained, uniformed staff – experienced in safe lifting, packing and handling of a wide range of household and commercial goods.
Our vehicles are purpose‑built for removals, and our storage facility is secure, alarmed and monitored, giving you additional peace of mind.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We aim to care for both your belongings and the environment. Protective blankets, mattress covers and export wrap are used where appropriate to minimise the risk of scuffs, scratches or moisture damage. We choose strong, reusable crates and durable materials whenever possible, and we recycle cardboard and packing materials responsibly. Efficient planning of routes and loads helps reduce unnecessary journeys and emissions, supporting a more sustainable way to move and store in Enfield.
Real-World Storage Use Cases
- Moving house – Store your entire home contents or just selected rooms while you wait for keys or complete renovation work.
- Office relocation – Keep spare desks, filing and IT equipment safe while you phase a move or fit out new premises.
- Urgent moves – When a completion date changes at the last minute, we can place items into storage quickly to prevent delays or chain collapses.
- Decluttering – Free up space to stage your property for sale or create room for a new family member without getting rid of items permanently.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does storage in Enfield cost?
Storage costs depend mainly on how much space you need, how long you store for, and whether you require collection and re‑delivery. We price by volume, so you only pay for the space you actually use, not a fixed unit size that may be too large. Collection and delivery are charged based on time, access and the size of crew required. During your quote, we will break down all charges clearly so you can see exactly what you are paying for, with no hidden extras.
Can you offer same-day or urgent storage?
Where schedules and availability allow, we can often arrange same‑day or next‑day storage in Enfield, which is particularly useful for last‑minute completions or unexpected tenancy changes. If you call us early in the day with an urgent requirement, we will check vehicle, crew and storage capacity and give you a realistic timeframe. While advance booking is always recommended, our local presence and flexible fleet mean we can usually accommodate urgent cases, especially within Enfield and nearby North London postcodes.
Are my belongings insured while in storage?
Yes, your items are protected during transit by our goods in transit insurance, and while on your premises by our public liability cover. For the storage period itself, we can arrange cover based on the declared value of your goods, or you may choose to use your own household or business insurance if it includes off‑site storage. We will explain the options during the quotation stage and make sure you understand what is and is not covered, so you can make an informed choice about the level of protection you need.
What is included in your storage service?
Our standard storage service includes collection from your property, careful loading, transport to our facility, secure storage in labelled units or containers, and re‑delivery when you are ready. We provide protective blankets and basic wrapping for furniture as standard. Additional services such as professional packing, dismantling and reassembly, disposal of unwanted items, or out‑of‑hours access can be added if required. Everything is agreed before work starts, so you have a complete picture of what is included and what any optional extras will cost.
How is your service different from a basic man-and-van?
A basic man-and-van typically offers transport only, with limited or no insurance, no secure storage facility, and little control over how items are packed or handled. In contrast, Movers Enfield provides a coordinated professional removals and storage service, using trained staff, specialist vehicles, and monitored storage. We create inventories, use appropriate packing and protective materials, and hold proper insurance cover. This greatly reduces the risk of damage, loss or disputes, and gives you a single, accountable company responsible for your belongings from start to finish.
How far in advance should I book storage?
For the best choice of dates and to keep costs down, we suggest booking storage at least one to two weeks in advance, particularly during busy moving periods such as the end of the month and summer. However, we appreciate that move dates can change at short notice, so we always try to be flexible. If your timings are uncertain, we can provisionally reserve space and confirm details once your dates are fixed, helping you secure availability without committing to exact durations too early.
