Our local team plans access routes, loading times and vehicle sizes carefully, so your items are moved into storage smoothly and efficiently.

Who Our Short-Term Storage Is For
Homeowners
If you are selling, downsizing or renovating, short-term storage lets you keep furniture and personal belongings out of the way while work is completed or contracts are exchanged. We can collect items directly from your property and place them in a suitable unit.
Renters
For renters facing a tenancy gap or moving into a furnished property, short-term storage is often the most practical option. Store your belongings safely between moves and we will deliver them when your new home is ready.
Landlords
Landlords often need temporary storage when changing furniture between lets or refreshing a property. We can remove old items, store them, or hold replacement furniture until the property is ready to be set up again.
Businesses
Local businesses use our short-term storage for excess stock, seasonal items, event equipment and office furniture. We offer practical loading access and can coordinate collection or delivery outside busy trading hours when required.
Students
Students in Cann Hall and across East London rely on us to store belongings over the summer, during placements, or while changing accommodation. Store your books, clothes, bikes and basic furniture without paying rent on a property you do not need.

Our Step-by-Step Short-Term Storage Process
1. Enquiry & Quote
Contact us by phone or online with an outline of what you need to store, roughly how many items you have and your preferred dates. We will ask a few practical questions about access, size of property and timing, then provide a clear, no-obligation quote for storage and any collection/delivery services you require.
2. Survey (Virtual or Onsite)
For full households or larger business moves, we may arrange a short virtual or onsite survey. This allows us to assess the volume accurately, check access issues, and decide on the best size of unit and vehicle. By planning properly at this stage, we avoid surprises on the day and keep your costs under control.
3. Packing & Preparation
You can pack your own items or use our professional packing service. If you choose us to pack, we bring quality cartons, wrapping materials and protective covers, and label everything clearly for easy retrieval. Fragile and high-risk items receive extra protection, and furniture is disassembled where appropriate to maximise space.
4. Loading & Transport
On the agreed day, our trained team arrives on time, protects floors and doorways as needed, and loads your belongings safely onto our vehicles. Everything is securely fastened and protected during transport to our Cann Hall storage facility. We handle the heavy lifting, navigating stairs, lifts and tight hallways carefully.
5. Unloading & Placement into Storage
At the facility, your items are unloaded and placed into your designated storage unit in an organised way, with commonly needed items kept accessible if possible. We lock and secure the unit, and your contract confirms the items stored, unit size, access arrangements and any goods in transit insurance you have chosen.
Transparent Short-Term Storage Pricing
We believe in clear, upfront pricing with no hidden extras. The cost of short-term storage in Cann Hall generally depends on:
- Unit size required
- Length of stay
- Whether you need collection and/or re-delivery
- Packing services and materials, if requested
- Level of insurance cover
We provide a detailed written quote before you commit, so you know exactly what you will pay. For longer short-term stays or repeat business storage, we may be able to offer preferential rates.
Why Choose Professional Storage Over DIY or Casual Man-and-Van
Using a structured, professional short-term storage service offers far more protection and reliability than ad-hoc options. With Storage Cann Hall you benefit from:
- Trained teams who know how to handle and stack items safely
- Purpose-built storage with security, not a damp garage or spare room
- Proper contracts, documentation and insurance cover
- Reliable scheduling and punctuality
- Single point of contact for questions or changes
Informal or DIY solutions can lead to damage, loss and disputes if something goes wrong. With us, processes and responsibilities are clear from the outset.
Insurance & Professional Standards
We take the safety and security of your belongings seriously:
- Goods in transit insurance available when we collect or deliver your items
- Public liability cover for work carried out in your home or business
- Trained, background-checked staff following established handling procedures
- Secure, monitored storage facility with controlled access
We are committed to working to consistently high standards, keeping your possessions protected from collection through to re-delivery.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We handle your items as if they were our own. Furniture is wrapped, mattresses are bagged, and delicate pieces are padded to reduce any risk of scuffs or breakages. We also aim to work responsibly, reusing sturdy cartons where appropriate, recycling materials and planning routes efficiently to reduce unnecessary mileage and emissions.
Real-World Uses for Short-Term Storage in Cann Hall
Moving House
Chains do not always line up neatly. Short-term storage bridges the gap when you must move out before your new home is ready, keeping your belongings safe while you stay with family, friends or in temporary accommodation.
Office and Business Relocations
During refurbishments or relocations, businesses use our storage for desks, chairs, files and surplus stock. We can phase collections and deliveries to match your project schedule, helping you minimise downtime.
Urgent or Last-Minute Moves
Sometimes circumstances change quickly – a tenancy ending sooner than planned, a sale completing unexpectedly, or emergency repair work. Where possible, we offer rapid short-term storage solutions to get your belongings out of harm’s way and into a secure unit at short notice.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does short-term storage in Cann Hall cost?
The cost depends mainly on the size of unit you need, how long you plan to store for, and whether you require collection and delivery. Smaller units for a few boxes will naturally cost less than space for a full household. Once we know what you need to store, we will provide a clear written quote covering storage fees, any transport costs, packing materials and optional insurance. There are no hidden charges, and you only pay for the services and time you actually use.
Can you provide same-day or urgent short-term storage?
In many cases we can arrange short-term storage at short notice, including same-day, depending on availability of units and vehicles. If you have an urgent situation, call us as early as you can and explain your circumstances. We will check our schedule, confirm what space is available and advise on realistic timings. While we cannot guarantee same-day slots every time, we do our best to prioritise emergencies and find a practical, safe solution for your belongings.
Are my belongings insured while in storage and in transit?
We offer goods in transit insurance for items we collect and deliver, and cover options for items held in our Cann Hall storage facility. The exact level of protection will be set out in your quote and contract, including any limits or exclusions. You may also have existing cover through your home or business policy, and we encourage you to check this. Our team can explain how our insurance works, what is included, and how to record the value of your goods for peace of mind.
What is included in your short-term storage service?
The core service includes secure storage space in our Cann Hall facility, access arrangements as agreed, and basic support from our team. Most customers add collection and re-delivery, and some choose our packing service too. We supply or can provide suitable packing materials, protective covers and labelling if required. Your written quote will clearly show which elements are included – storage only, storage plus transport, and any extras you have requested – so you can tailor the service to your budget and needs.
How is this different from using a man-and-van service?
A casual man-and-van usually offers transport only, often without dedicated storage, formal contracts or comprehensive insurance. With us, you get a structured service: secure storage units, trained staff, documented inventories where needed, and clear responsibilities. Our vehicles are equipped for removals, and our teams know how to protect and stack furniture safely. This reduces the risk of damage and disputes. In short, you are paying not just for a van, but for a complete, managed solution with proper safeguards in place.
How far in advance should I book short-term storage?
We recommend booking as soon as your dates are reasonably clear, especially if you plan to move at month-end or during busy periods. A week or two’s notice is ideal, but we regularly handle bookings with much shorter lead times. Early booking gives you more choice of slot and unit size, and allows us to plan resources properly. If your situation is uncertain, we can often hold provisional dates and adjust them once your move or project timetable is confirmed.
