- Why Cheshire Chooses Our Storage
Containerised storage to bridge the gap between moves
Our storage is containerised, not a self-storage unit you visit on your own. Our crew loads your belongings into sealed containers at your current address, transports them to our secure facility, and when your new home is ready we deliver them straight in and unload to your instructions. No hire vans, no moving everything twice, no self-storage handoff. Your containers are alarmed, monitored and kept dry, with a full inventory taken so you always know what is in store.
This service suits customers who:
- Complete on a sale before the purchase is ready
- Need a gap of days, weeks or months between moving out and moving in
- Are relocating overseas and need short-term UK storage while arrangements are finalised
- Are downsizing and want to clear a property before deciding what goes to the new home
- What's Included with Every Storage Booking
A FULL-SERVICE STORAGE SOLUTION
Every storage booking with Cheshire Removals includes the following as standard. No extras, no surprise weekly charges – just your belongings, looked after.
Loaded at Your Door
Our crew loads your container at your old home – not a self-storage unit across town. No hire vans, no moving everything twice.
Sealed Containers
Your belongings go into a wooden storage container that’s sealed at your home and only opened at your new one. Nothing shifted, shuffled or handled in between.
Secure Facility
Stored at our own secure Stockport facility. Alarmed, monitored, dry and covered – the same standard we’d use for our own families’ belongings.
Flexible Duration
Storage for a weekend, a week, a month or longer – whatever your completion date throws at you. Pay for the time you actually need.
Full Inventory
Every container is catalogued with a written, photographed inventory – signed off at your home before the doors are sealed.
Delivered to Your New Home
When you’re ready to move in, we deliver your container and unload straight into the rooms you want it in. No second move. No second invoice.

- How Storage Works with Us
FROM SEALED AT YOUR OLD HOME TO UNLOADED AT YOUR NEW ONE
Every storage booking runs on the same four-step playbook – whether you need a weekend or a few months in between.
1. Free home survey and quote
Our team visits your home, walks the rooms, and works out how many containers you’ll need. You’ll have a fixed, all-in quote within 24 hours – covering loading, storage and delivery.
2. Load and seal at your home
On moving day, our crew loads your belongings directly into your storage container at your home. Full written inventory, photographed and signed off, then the doors are sealed.
3. Secure storage at our Stockport facility
Your container is transported to our secure Stockport facility and stored as long as you need – alarmed, monitored and kept dry. No access required in the meantime.
4. Delivery to your new home
When you’ve got keys, we deliver your container and unload into the rooms you want it in. Same crew. Same inventory. Same care.
Storage as part of your move
Most customers booking storage are also booking a house removal or an international removal with us. Combining the two means one survey, one quote and one crew, with your belongings loaded straight from your Cheshire home into storage, with no separate van hire and no packing it all yourself twice. Add professional packing and we will wrap and box everything before it goes into store.

Questions? We've got answers.
The things Cheshire movers ask us most – answered in 30 seconds each.
How long can you store my belongings?
We work around your timescale, from a few days while you wait on a completion date to several months while an overseas move is finalised. Call 0161 476 2873 and we will confirm availability and pricing.
Can I access my items during storage?
Our storage is containerised, so it is not a drop-in access unit. Your belongings are sealed in containers at our secure facility and stay there until we redeliver them, which keeps them safer and is what makes the service cost-effective. If you think you will need a particular item during the storage period, tell us at the survey and we will plan for it where we can.
How much does storage cost?
Storage pricing depends on the volume of your belongings, the length of the storage period, and whether you combine it with a removal or book storage on its own. We do not publish fixed rates because the right answer varies by job. For a full breakdown of what affects the price, see our guide to house removal storage costs. Fill in the online quote form or call 0161 476 2873 and we will come back with a clear price, usually within two hours.
Do you combine storage with a full removal?
Yes, and most customers do. Booking storage alongside a house removal or international removal means one survey, one quote and one crew, with your belongings loaded straight from your Cheshire home into storage. Let us know when you request your quote.
What if my move-in date changes while my belongings are in storage?
Call us as soon as your dates shift and we will adjust the redelivery booking. Pricing is based on time held, so a longer storage period is reflected in the final invoice, and we will confirm any revised cost before it is agreed.
