Storage Moves Leicester & Leicestershire
Local specialists for moving items into storage, out of storage, or between units. We collect from your home or business, protect everything properly, and stack your unit neatly so you can still access what you need.
If you need a reliable team for a Leicester storage move (Big Yellow, Shurgard, Safestore, or independents), we’ll plan the job around your inventory, access and the storage site’s rules — then confirm one clear fixed quote upfront.

Storage Facility Details (This Keeps Your Move Smooth)

Drive-up unit vs corridor carry (and approximate carry distance if known)

Gate/access code (if needed)

Once we have these details, we can plan your job properly and reduce wasted time.
Storage Delays, Waiting Time & Access Issues
We always allow a reasonable check-in/unload period, but storage facilities can sometimes delay entry due to:

Missing access codes
Missed booking slots
If delays are outside the included allowance and prevent us from working, storage facility waiting is charged at £20 per 30 minutes (team

Storage Moves FAQs
Q1. Do you provide the storage unit?
No — you book and pay the storage provider directly. We provide the moving service: collection, transport, unloading and organised stacking.
Q2. How is storage move pricing calculated?
We provide a fixed quote based on your inventory/volume, distance, access, and storage facility restrictions (slots, lifts, long corridors). Send your inventory or a quick video/photos and we’ll confirm an upfront price.
Q3. Can you help me choose the right storage unit size?
Yes. If you send an inventory list or video/photos, we can advise on a sensible unit size so you don’t overpay for space you won’t use.
Q4. Do you offer moves into storage and then back out later?
Yes. We can take items into storage and return them to your next address when you’re ready.
Q5. What about waiting time at the storage desk or check-in delays?
We allow a reasonable check-in period. If the facility causes extended delays outside the included allowance, waiting is £20 per 30 minutes (team).
Q6. What if the items don’t fit in the agreed load/trip?
Your quote covers the agreed scope (items + planned load(s)). If there are additional items or more volume than expected, we’ll price any extra handling or extra runs and confirm it with you before loading / before making another trip. If extra work isn’t accepted, we complete only the originally agreed scope.
Q7. What if the storage facility won’t allow access or the unit isn’t ready?
If access fails after we attend (facility refuses entry, unit isn’t allocated, site closed, or no access code), the original fixed price remains payable once attendance has occurred. If you want us to continue, we’ll confirm the most practical option and the additional cost before proceeding — this may include: Re-attempt later the same day (if feasible) Overnight hold on the loaded van Returning the next day to complete the move
Q8. Can you dismantle furniture?
Yes — light dismantle/assembly is from £50, heavy/multiple is from £75 when booked in advance.
