Who Our Self Storage Service Is For
Homeowners
Decluttering before a sale, renovating, or moving dates not aligning? Our units are ideal for storing furniture, appliances, seasonal items and personal possessions while you get your home how you want it. Many local homeowners use our Hoxton self storage to free up valuable living space without having to part with cherished belongings.
Renters
If you’re between tenancies, moving in with a partner, or downsizing to a smaller flat, we provide flexible storage with simple contracts and clear pricing. Store as little or as much as you like for just a few weeks or for as long as you need, without long-term commitments.
Landlords
Landlords in and around Hoxton use our storage to hold furniture and fittings between lets, or to clear a property quickly when tenants move out. We can combine storage with collection and delivery, helping you turn properties around faster and keep void periods to a minimum.
Businesses
Local businesses rely on our self storage for excess stock, documents, event equipment, tools and archive materials. It’s often far cheaper than upsizing your office or warehouse. With convenient access hours, you can treat your storage unit as an extension of your workspace.
Students
Students at nearby universities and colleges use our affordable units to store belongings over holidays or during placement years. Rather than carting everything back home, you can keep your items safe in Hoxton until term starts again.
What You Can Store with Us
Our units are suitable for most household and business items, including:
- Furniture: sofas, beds, wardrobes, tables and chairs
- Domestic appliances: washing machines, fridges, microwaves
- Boxes of clothes, books, toys and personal items
- Electronics and small office equipment
- Business stock, marketing materials and samples
- Sports equipment, bikes and hobby items

If you are unsure whether something can be stored, we are happy to advise before you pack.
Our Self Storage Process – Step by Step
1. Enquiry & Quote
You contact us by phone, email or via our website with an outline of what you need to store and for how long. We’ll ask a few simple questions to estimate the unit size required and provide a clear, no‑obligation quote. We always explain any additional services, such as collection or packing, so you know exactly what to expect.
2. Survey (Virtual or Onsite)
If you’re not sure how much space you need, we can carry out a short virtual survey using photos or video, or visit your property in person. As experienced storage and removals professionals, we’re very accurate at gauging the right unit size, which means you don’t pay for unused space or end up short of room on the day.
3. Packing & Preparation
You can pack your items yourself, or we can provide a professional packing service. Our team use quality boxes, wrapping materials and protective covers to keep furniture and fragile items safe. We label boxes clearly to make retrieval simple, especially if you plan to access items while they’re in storage.
4. Loading & Transport
We offer collection and transport from your home, office or student accommodation in Hoxton and nearby areas. Our trained team load your belongings carefully into our vehicles, using blankets, straps and padding to protect them in transit. All moves are covered by goods in transit insurance for extra reassurance.
5. Unloading & Placement in Your Unit
On arrival at our Hoxton facility, we unload everything directly into your reserved storage unit. We pack the unit efficiently, keeping items you are likely to need towards the front for easy access. Once the unit is locked, access is restricted to you or authorised persons you nominate.
Transparent, Fair Pricing
We believe in straightforward pricing with no hidden extras. Your overall cost depends on:
- Unit size (measured in square or cubic feet)
- Length of stay (short-term or long-term)
- Whether you require collection, delivery or packing
We’ll set out all charges in writing before you commit. Longer storage periods and prepayments often qualify for discounted rates, and we regularly help customers adjust to a smaller or larger unit if their needs change. There are no surprise administration fees or complex terms.
Why Choose Professional Self Storage Over DIY Options
Trying to store belongings in a friend’s garage, a damp shed or an unsecured lock‑up can end up costing more in damage and stress. With Storage Hoxton you benefit from:
- A clean, dry, purpose‑built facility with proper ventilation
- Robust security systems, controlled access and monitored CCTV
- Fully insured collection and storage services
- Support from trained, professional staff
- Flexible terms, easy upgrades or downsizes, and clear contracts
Unlike casual man‑and‑van or ad‑hoc storage, we work to recognised industry standards and have a long-term presence in the Hoxton community.
Insurance and Professional Standards
As established storage and removals providers, we back up our service with strong protections:
- Goods in transit insurance for items we collect and deliver
- Comprehensive public liability cover for work on your premises
- Well‑maintained, secure premises with multiple layers of protection
- Trained moving teams following safe handling practices
We can outline cover levels and options in detail at quotation stage, so you can decide whether to supplement our cover with your own insurance for particularly high‑value items.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We treat your belongings as if they were our own. From using mattress bags and furniture covers to stacking boxes sensibly, every step is designed to minimise risk of damage. We also aim to work as sustainably as possible, re‑using durable packing materials, offering recycled boxes where practical, and optimising vehicle routes to reduce unnecessary journeys and emissions.
Real‑World Uses for Our Hoxton Self Storage
Moving House
When moving dates don’t line up or you want to declutter before listing your property, storage offers a safe halfway house for your furniture and personal items. Many of our customers combine our self storage with our removals service for a smooth, staged move.
Office Relocation or Refurbishment
During an office move or refit, desks, IT equipment, files and stock can quickly become an obstacle. By placing them into secure storage in Hoxton, you create space for contractors and staff, keeping operations running more smoothly and reducing disruption.
Urgent or Emergency Situations
Sometimes storage is needed at short notice due to relationship changes, property damage or unexpected tenancy issues. Where possible, we offer rapid assessments and same‑week, and often same‑day, storage solutions, including collection and packing support if required.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does self storage in Hoxton cost?
Costs depend mainly on the size of unit you need and how long you want to store for. Smaller units suitable for a few boxes and small items are naturally cheaper than rooms holding the contents of a full flat or house. We offer clear weekly or monthly rates with discounts for longer stays or advance payments. To give you an accurate price, we’ll ask what you’re storing, when you want to start, and whether you need collection or packing services as well.
Can you provide same‑day or urgent storage?
In many cases, yes. If we have units available, we can arrange same‑day or very short‑notice storage, particularly for smaller loads. For urgent situations, call us as early as possible so we can confirm availability and, if required, schedule a collection slot. Our local Hoxton presence and dedicated vehicles mean we can often respond faster than larger, less flexible providers. Even when same‑day is not feasible, we will always work to find the earliest practical solution for you.
Are my belongings insured while in storage?
Items we transport are covered by our goods in transit insurance, and our premises are protected by robust security measures and public liability cover. We recommend that customers also check their own home or business insurance, as some policies include cover for items in storage. For higher‑value goods, it may be sensible to arrange additional cover. We will explain what our insurance includes and, if you wish, provide guidance on arranging top‑up protection so you are fully comfortable.
What’s included in your self storage service?
At its simplest, our service includes a secure, private storage unit in our Hoxton facility, access during agreed hours, and support from our on‑site team. Many customers add optional services such as professional packing, collection from their property, and later redelivery. We can also supply packing materials and provide guidance on how best to prepare items for storage. All contracts are clearly written, with details of access arrangements, notice periods and any added services agreed in advance.
How is professional storage different from a basic man‑and‑van or garage rental?
A casual man‑and‑van or garage might seem cheaper, but usually lacks proper security, climate protection and insurance. With Storage Hoxton, you get a clean, purpose‑built facility, monitored access, and a professional, trained team handling your belongings. Units are designed for safe, long‑term storage, not just temporary parking. Our contracts are transparent, our site is managed every day, and you have a clear point of contact if you need help. That reliability and oversight makes a significant difference over time.
How far in advance should I book a storage unit?
For the widest choice of unit sizes and move‑in dates, it’s sensible to book one to two weeks in advance, especially during busy periods such as summer or month‑end. However, we understand that storage needs often arise unexpectedly, so we always keep some flexibility for short‑notice bookings. Even if your dates are not fixed yet, get in touch early and we can provisionally plan your move‑in, adjust the unit size if needed, and make the whole process far less stressful.
