Removals and storage in York are handled by one team at both ends. We collect your furniture, deliver it to a storage unit and load it so you pay for less space, then bring it back to your new home whenever you're ready. We often use Inner Space Stations on Layerthorpe, but any facility works.
Removals and storage in York, handled by one team at both ends. We collect your furniture and boxes, deliver them to a storage unit, and bring them back out when you're ready for them, whether that's three weeks later or three years.
You're not tied to one storage company. We work hand in hand with Inner Space Stations on Layerthorpe and happily recommend them, but if another facility suits your budget or your new address better, we'll deliver there instead.
How a Move Into Storage Works
- Tell us your dates and roughly how much is going into storage.
- We collect from your current address, exactly like a normal house removal.
- We deliver to your unit and load it so the space is used properly.
- When you're ready, we collect from storage and deliver to your new home.
You deal with us from start to finish, instead of booking a removals firm for one end and hiring a van for the other.
Short-Term and Long-Term Storage Moves
- Short-term: your new home isn't ready, your sale and purchase dates don't line up, or you're renovating and need the furniture out of the way
- Long-term: downsizing, clearing a house before it goes on the market, working away, or simply needing more space
Stuck between completion dates? Our last-minute house move checklist is worth a read, and our guide to how much self storage costs helps you size the unit before you book it.
Loading a Storage Unit So You Pay for Less Space
Storage is priced by size, so how the unit is loaded matters. We put the heavy, square things at the back and the bottom, stand sofas and mattresses where they'll be safe, and keep the boxes you'll want first near the door. A well-loaded unit often means you can book a smaller one.
Moving a business rather than a home? Our office removals team can move stock and furniture into storage between premises.

Two Storage Moves, in Our Customers' Words
One customer moving from YO10 to the edge of York had Dale and Mike take on a third-floor flat. They said the team made it look easy, which on three flights of stairs it isn't, and that the unit was packed so well at the other end that more fitted in than they expected, saving them money on their storage.
Another customer used us twice: first to move their furniture into storage in York, then a couple of years later for a full move from York to Colchester. Both reviews were five stars, with clear communication before each move and careful handling throughout.
Storage Questions We Get Asked in York
Do you have your own storage facility?
No. We move your things to the storage facility you choose. We recommend Inner Space Stations on Layerthorpe, and we'll deliver to any facility in York.
Can I store things for just a few weeks?
Yes. Short gaps between moves are the most common reason people use us for storage, and long-term moves are just as welcome.
Are my things insured while they're in storage?
Our £10,000 Goods in Transit cover protects your things while we're moving them. While they're in the unit, you arrange insurance with the storage facility or your own insurer.
How much notice do you need?
The more the better, especially in busy periods, but ask even at short notice and we'll do what we can.
