How Our Business Storage Process Works
We handle as much or as little of the physical move as you wish. Many clients combine our storage with our business removals service so we collect, transport and place everything directly into their unit.
1. Enquiry & Quote
Contact us by phone, email or online form and explain what you need to store, roughly how many boxes or items you have, and how long you expect to need space. We will recommend a unit size, discuss any access requirements and provide a clear, written quotation. Where a business move is involved, we can quote for packing, loading and transport at the same time.
2. Survey (Virtual or Onsite)
For larger or more complex business storage needs, we usually arrange a survey. This can be carried out virtually using video, photos and an inventory list, or we can visit your premises in person. The survey allows us to measure volumes accurately, identify any fragile or high-value items and confirm access – from loading bays to lifts and stairwells – so move day runs smoothly.
3. Packing & Preparation
You are welcome to pack your own items, or we can provide a professional packing service. Our trained staff use quality cartons, wrapping materials and warehouse blankets to protect computers, stock and furniture. Everything is labelled clearly so you can locate items easily once in storage. Palletisation can be arranged for bulk stock. We will also advise on any disassembly required for large items such as boardroom tables or shelving.
4. Loading & Transport to Storage
On the agreed day, our trained moving team arrives with suitable vehicles and handling equipment. We load systematically, ensuring boxes and equipment are secured for transport. All goods are covered by our goods in transit insurance while in our care. On arrival at our Edmonton storage facility, we unload directly into your unit, placing items sensibly for safe stacking and future access.
5. Unloading, Placement & Ongoing Access
Within the unit, we arrange furniture and racking (if required) to maximise your space and make it practical to use. Items you need more often are brought to the front. Once you are set up, you can access your unit during our advertised opening hours. When you are ready to move items out permanently, we can either meet you at the unit or deliver goods to your new office, shop or site.
Local Business Storage Expertise in Edmonton
Storage Edmonton has supported local companies, trades and professionals across Edmonton for years. We understand the pressures of operating in and around North London – from limited office and retail space to tight loading times and parking restrictions. Our local knowledge helps us plan efficient collections and deliveries, minimise downtime and work around your trading hours so your business keeps running smoothly.
Transparent, Flexible Pricing
We believe business customers should know exactly what they are paying for. Our pricing is based on three main elements:
- The size of the storage unit you require.
- The length of time you need storage for.
- Any additional services such as packing, collection, delivery or specialist handling.
Rates are quoted clearly and in writing, with no hidden add-ons. Longer-term contracts can attract reduced rates, and we can often offer flexible terms for seasonal or project-based storage. We will always discuss options openly so you can choose a level of service and cost that suits your budget.
Why Choose Professional Business Storage Over DIY or Casual Options
Using a spare garage, hiring a lock-up, or relying on a casual man-and-van can seem cheaper at first glance, but there are real risks. Informal solutions usually lack proper security, fire protection and insurance, and there is rarely a paper trail for compliance or audits. With Storage Edmonton you benefit from a professional, regulated service with clear contracts, public liability cover and suitable goods in transit insurance when we move your items. Our trained moving teams know how to handle delicate stock and sensitive documents, reducing the chance of damage or loss.
Insurance and Professional Standards
Your business assets deserve proper protection. As a professional storage and removals company, we maintain robust cover and operating standards:
- Goods in transit insurance – covering your items while we are transporting them between your premises and the storage facility.
- Public liability cover – to protect you, your staff and your property while we are working on your site.
- Trained moving teams – our staff receive ongoing training in manual handling, packing, loading and customer care.
- Clear written agreements – so you understand responsibilities, access arrangements and what is and is not covered.
We are committed to operating transparently and responsibly so that you can trust us with your stock, equipment and records.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We handle your business property as carefully as if it were our own. Furniture is wrapped, IT equipment is cushioned, and items are stacked to avoid crushing or distortion. Wherever possible we use reusable crates, blankets and durable cartons. Cardboard, plastics and other waste generated during moves are recycled where facilities allow, and we plan routes and loads to minimise unnecessary journeys. For many businesses, using off-site storage with efficient transport can be more sustainable than occupying larger, underused premises.
Real-World Business Storage Use Cases
Moving Office
When offices are refurbished, downsized or relocated, business storage provides a vital buffer. Files, spare furniture and equipment can go into storage so your new premises are not overwhelmed on day one. We can phase deliveries from your unit as you settle in, reducing disruption to staff.
Retail and E‑commerce Stock
Shops and online sellers use our units as overflow stockrooms, especially ahead of busy seasons. Palletised goods, hanging garments and boxed products can be stored securely, with access timed around deliveries and dispatch. Our team can assist with regular in-and-out movements if required.
Urgent or Short-Notice Situations
Evictions, urgent dilapidation works, lease expiries and unexpected building issues often leave businesses needing space at short notice. Subject to availability we can arrange collection, transport and storage quickly, giving you breathing space to plan your next step properly.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does business storage in Edmonton cost?
Costs depend mainly on the size of unit you need, how long you require it for, and whether you want us to provide packing and collection. Smaller units suitable for boxes and a few items of furniture are naturally cheaper than larger spaces for bulk stock or full office contents. We provide a clear, itemised quotation so you can see the storage fee, any insurance supplements and optional services separately. There are no hidden extras, and we are happy to suggest ways to optimise space and keep costs down.
Can you offer same-day or urgent business storage?
Where space and staff are available, we can often arrange urgent or even same-day storage for businesses in Edmonton. This is particularly helpful if you face an unexpected lease issue, flood, fire damage or urgent refurbishment. Call us as soon as you know there is a problem and we will confirm availability, unit sizes and likely timescales for collection. While same-day service cannot be guaranteed, we always do our best to prioritise genuine emergencies and minimise disruption to your operations.
Are my business items insured while in storage?
While your goods are in our care during collection and delivery, they are covered by our standard goods in transit insurance. For the period they are stored in your unit, basic cover may be included up to a stated limit, or we can arrange additional insurance based on the declared value of your items. We will explain the options clearly, including any exclusions, so you can decide what level of protection is appropriate. You are also free to use your own business insurance if it extends to items in storage.
What is included in your business storage service?
As standard, you receive a clean, dry, secure unit in our Edmonton facility, access during agreed hours, and support from our office team. Most business customers also choose our collection and delivery service, where our professional movers load, transport and unload at the storage site. Optional extras include packing, dismantling and reassembly of furniture, supply of crates and cartons, and regular in-and-out handling of stock or equipment. We will build a package around your needs so you pay only for the services you genuinely require.
How is business storage different from a basic man-and-van?
A casual man-and-van typically offers transport only, with limited or no storage, minimal paperwork and often very restricted insurance. Our business storage service combines secure, purpose-built units with trained moving teams, proper insurance and professional office support. We provide written agreements, accurate inventories on request and reliable access arrangements. For businesses, this means far better protection of assets, a clear audit trail and a service that stands up to scrutiny from landlords, insurers and auditors. In short, it is structured around commercial needs, not just one-off moves.
How far in advance should I book business storage?
For planned projects such as office moves or refurbishments, we recommend getting in touch four to six weeks ahead, especially if you expect to need larger units or multiple vehicles. This gives us time to survey, plan and secure the right space. However, we regularly help businesses on much shorter notice and will always try to accommodate you. As soon as you suspect you will need storage – even if details are not final – contact us so we can reserve provisional capacity and guide your planning.
