At Avenue Removals, we understand that moving house or relocating your business can feel overwhelming at times. We’re a family-run removals company covering Surrey, Dorset and European moves, and over the years we’ve helped countless customers simplify their move by offering flexible, secure storage solutions alongside our trusted removals service.
Whether you’re moving locally, downsizing, waiting for your new property to be ready or simply needing some extra breathing space, we have storage solutions to help with it all.
Here’s why so many of our customers choose to use storage as part of their moving journey:
1: Flexibility When Plans Change
We all know things don’t always go to plan. Maybe the completion date on your sale moves, the new house isn’t quite ready yet, or your renovation is running late (hello, plaster drying time!).
With Avenue Removals’ storage service, you’re not locked into rigid schedules. We can store your belongings for as short or long as you need, giving you the breathing space to adapt without stress.
Avenue Tip:
Start packing non-essentials early (e.g. books, clothing, spare rooms). Spend some time decluttering before packing, so you don’t take thing to the new house you no longer need or want.
When planning your move, allow a “buffer week” — that extra flexibility can save you a lot of last-minute panic!
2: Secure, Safe and Protected
When you trust us with your belongings, we treat them like our own. Our storage facilities are clean, dry and fully secured with CCTV and alarm systems, giving you peace of mind that your possessions are safe and protected for as long as they stay with us.
Whether it’s your sofa, family heirlooms or important business documents, you can feel confident everything is stored properly until you need it again.
Avenue Tip:
Before storing items, label every box clearly and take a photo of its contents. You’ll thank yourself later when you need to find that one particular item!
3: Declutter to Reduce Moving Stress
Packing up a whole house in one go can feel overwhelming. Storage allows you to stage your move gradually, clearing space and reducing clutter before the big day.
This is ideal if you’re selling your home, a clutter-free space helps buyers visualise themselves living there and can speed up your sale.
Avenue Tip:
Create a “declutter box” with essentials you don’t want to store, like documents, chargers or your favourite mug, so they don’t accidentally get packed away!
4: Ideal for Downsizing or Temporary Moves
If you’re moving into a smaller property or relocating temporarily, storage is a lifeline. You don’t have to rush decisions about what to keep or let go! Store the things you aren’t sure about and decide later at your own pace.
This is perfect for those in-between periods when life is a bit up in the air.
Avenue Tip:
Keep a list of everything you put into storage and set a reminder to review it after 3–6 months, you might find you don’t miss some items at all!
5: Perfect for Business Customers Too
Storage isn’t just for families, we help many local businesses manage their space effectively.
Whether you are refurbishing offices, archiving old files, storing surplus stock or rotating seasonal equipment, our storage solutions keep your workspace clear and productive.
And because we’re a removals company too, we can collect and return everything when you need it! Saving you time and hassle.
Avenue Tip:
When storing business items, keep a clear inventory and group similar items together. This will save you hours when you need to retrieve something!
6: Short or Long Term
We understand that every move is different. That’s why we offer flexible storage options tailored to your needs.
Short-term while you wait for moving day or long-term for a more extended transition.
And with Avenue Removals, it’s easy: we can collect your belongings directly from your home or office, store them securely and deliver them back when you’re ready.
Avenue Tip:
If you’re unsure how long you’ll need storage for, ask us about flexible agreements. We’re happy to help adjust as your plans evolve.
7: Personal Service from a Family-Run Company
What sets Avenue Removals apart is our friendly, caring approach. We’re a family-run business and we treat every customer like part of the family. We take time to listen, understand your situation, and offer a solution that works perfectly for you.
We’re always happy to chat things through, offer advice, and help you plan your move.
