Professional Storage Services in Marylebone
Our storage service is designed to be straightforward and stress-free. We collect, store and return your goods using our own trained teams and purpose-built vehicles. Whether you need a few boxes stored for a couple of weeks, or a full house contents stored for several months, we’ll create a plan that fits your space and budget.
All storage is arranged from Marylebone and surrounding areas, with clear communication from a named move coordinator. You won’t be left dealing with anonymous warehouses or confusing paperwork.
Who Our Marylebone Storage Service Is For
Homeowners
Ideal if you’re between properties, decluttering before a sale, renovating, or downsizing. We can store complete household contents, single rooms or selected bulky items such as wardrobes, sofas, white goods and garden furniture.
Renters
If you’re changing lets, moving in with a partner, or heading abroad for work, our flexible storage lets you keep your belongings safe without paying rent on a full property. You can store anything from a studio flat to a full three-bedroom home.
Landlords
We work with local landlords who need to clear or rotate furnishings between lets. We can remove, store and redeliver furniture, white goods and boxed items between tenancies, limiting void periods and protecting your assets.
Businesses
Our business storage is ideal for office furniture, files, seasonal stock, exhibition stands and equipment. We offer fully insured collection and redelivery, helping you free up valuable office or retail space in Marylebone without losing access to important items.
Students
Students in Marylebone and central London use our storage between terms, during gap years, or when moving halls. We can collect from halls or shared houses, store safely, and deliver back to your new address when you return.
What We Can Store
We can safely store most typical household and office items, including:
- Furniture – beds, sofas, tables, wardrobes, shelving
- Appliances – washing machines, fridges, freezers (defrosted), microwaves
- Boxes and personal effects – books, clothes, kitchenware, ornaments
- IT and office equipment – PCs, monitors, printers, filing cabinets
- Sports and leisure – bicycles, gym equipment, camping gear
- Decor and art – pictures, mirrors, non-high-value artwork (by arrangement)
Items We Cannot Store
For safety, legal and insurance reasons, we are unable to store:
- Perishable or open food and drink
- Flammable, hazardous or explosive materials (including gas canisters, paints, fuels, chemicals)
- Illegal goods or items of uncertain ownership
- Live plants or animals
- Cash, jewellery or very high-value artwork and antiques (these are better held in specialist facilities or banking services)
If you’re unsure about a specific item, ask our team and we’ll advise on suitable options.
How Our Storage Process Works
1. Enquiry & Quote
You contact us with a rough idea of what you want to store and for how long. We ask a few simple questions about volume, access, and timings, then provide a clear, written quote with no hidden extras.
2. Survey – Virtual or Onsite
For larger jobs, we’ll carry out a virtual or onsite survey in Marylebone. This helps us assess access, parking, and the exact volume. It ensures we send the right size vehicle, the right number of professional movers, and allocate the correct storage space so you only pay for what you need.
3. Packing & Preparation
You can pack your own boxes, or use our packing service. Our teams use high-quality cartons, wrapping paper and export-grade bubble wrap where required. Furniture is blanket-wrapped or export-wrapped, mattresses are covered, and fragile items are carefully protected to minimise the risk of damage in storage.
4. Loading & Transport
On collection day, our trained crew arrives at your Marylebone address, protects floors and bannisters as needed, and loads your items methodically. Goods are inventoried and labelled before being transported in our sign-written vehicles under goods in transit insurance to our secure storage facility.
5. Storage, Unloading & Placement
On arrival, your items are unloaded into clean, dry storage units or containers. Everything is stacked safely to prevent crushing, and items are stored according to the agreed inventory. When you’re ready for redelivery, we simply reverse the process – loading from storage and delivering back to your new address, placing items into the rooms you choose.
Transparent Pricing for Storage in Marylebone
We believe in clear, upfront pricing. Your quote will normally include:
- Collection from your Marylebone (or nearby) address
- Protective materials used on the day (blankets, webbing, transit protection)
- Monthly storage charge based on agreed volume
- Redelivery from storage to your new address
Costs depend on the volume of goods, access, distance to storage, and length of stay. There are no hidden admin or access fees – any extras, such as full packing, specialist dismantling, or out-of-hours work, will be clearly listed before you book.
Why Use Professional Storage Instead of DIY or Casual Man-and-Van?
With DIY storage, it’s easy to underestimate how much space you need, how best to pack, or how to protect items long term. Casual man-and-van services may be cheap on the day, but they often lack insurance, training and accountability.
By using a professional removals and storage company like Marylebone Movers, you benefit from:
- Experienced teams who know how to pack for long-term storage
- Planned loading that protects furniture and fragile items
- Proper inventories so nothing is misplaced
- Goods in transit insurance during collection and delivery
- Ongoing security and monitoring at the storage facility
Insurance and Professional Standards
Your belongings are handled under clear terms and professional standards. We provide:
- Goods in transit insurance while items are being moved to and from storage
- Public liability cover for work carried out at your property
- Trained moving teams, uniformed and experienced in handling all types of household and office goods
We’ll explain the cover levels and any exclusions before you book, and can discuss additional cover for higher-value items where appropriate.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We treat every item as if it were our own. Floors, doors and bannisters are protected where needed, and furniture is wrapped before leaving your property. We use quality, reusable furniture blankets and reusable crates where possible, reducing waste.
We also aim to minimise unnecessary journeys by careful route planning and consolidating trips when practical. Where single-use materials are required, we select recyclable options and encourage re-use of cartons for future moves.
Real-World Storage Use Cases in Marylebone
Moving House
If your sale and purchase don’t align, we can move you out, store your belongings securely, and deliver to your new home once you complete. This avoids rushed decisions or short-term, unsuitable accommodation.
Office Relocation
Businesses refurbishing or changing offices in Marylebone often need temporary storage for desks, chairs, files and IT equipment. We can phase collections and redeliveries so your team experiences minimal interruption.
Urgent Moves
Sometimes circumstances change quickly – a sudden completion date, relationship breakdown, or emergency repair. We can often arrange rapid storage collections, giving you breathing space while you decide your next steps.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does storage in Marylebone cost?
Storage costs depend on how much space you need, how long you need it for, and whether you require collection and redelivery. We normally price per container or per square foot, with discounts for longer-term stays. Your quote will show the monthly storage rate plus any one-off charges for collection, packing and final delivery. Because we carry out a survey where needed, you only pay for the space you actually use, rather than a rough guess. Contact us for a clear, written quotation tailored to your situation.
Can you offer same-day or urgent storage?
Where our schedule allows, we can often arrange same-day or short-notice storage collections in Marylebone and nearby areas. This is particularly helpful if a sale completes unexpectedly, a tenancy ends, or you face an emergency such as a leak or fire damage. The more notice you can give, the better, but if you’re in a tight spot, call us and we’ll explain what’s realistically possible that day or the next. We’ll always be honest about timings so you can make informed decisions.
Are my belongings insured while in storage?
Your goods are covered by goods in transit insurance while being moved to and from storage, and our public liability cover protects you against accidental damage to property during our work. Standard storage cover is available for most household and office contents, with clear policy limits and exclusions. For particularly high-value items, we may recommend additional cover or specialist storage solutions. We’ll go through the details with you before booking so you understand exactly what is and isn’t included, and can choose the level of protection that suits you.
What’s included in your storage service?
Our standard storage service includes collection from your property, loading by trained movers, transport under insurance, secure storage in a clean, dry facility, and redelivery to your new address when required. We can also add optional packing, dismantling and reassembly of furniture, and provision of packing materials. There are no hidden access or admin fees – any additional services, such as long carries, stair work or out-of-hours collections, are discussed and agreed in advance so you know exactly what’s covered.
How is your service different from a basic man-and-van?
A casual man-and-van will usually just move items from A to B, with limited protection, no inventory and often no meaningful insurance. With Marylebone Movers, you get a structured service: survey, planning, professional packing and loading, systematic inventories, secure storage, and controlled redelivery. Our trained teams know how to protect items for long-term storage, not just a quick trip across town. You also have office support, written terms, and clear accountability throughout, which most ad-hoc operators simply can’t offer.
How far in advance should I book storage?
For planned moves, we recommend booking storage at least one to two weeks in advance to secure your preferred dates, particularly during busy periods such as late spring and summer. However, we understand that timings often change at short notice, especially with property chains, so we keep some flexibility in our schedule. If your dates are uncertain, we can pencil in a provisional slot and confirm once your plans firm up. The earlier you contact us, the more options we can give you.
