From £299

When you need storage fur your furniture during a move, renovation, or declutter, choosing the right service makes all the difference. Giant Van provides secure, affordable furniture storage across the UK, we handle space for a single sofa or an entire household. This guide covers costs, what to expect, how to book, and how to keep your furniture in perfect condition while it is stored.

Full-service storage fur furniture across the UK, collecting from your home and storing items in secure, monitored facilities, with flexible monthly contracts and no hidden fees.
Understanding the property mix helps us plan the right crew size, van, and equipment for your move.
Furniture storage means placing your household items in a secure facility for a set period, typically while you are in the middle of a move, a home renovation, or a life change such as downsizing or relocating for work. Giant Van collects your items directly and transports them to a monitored storage unit, so you do not need to hire a separate removal company.
People use furniture storage for a wide range of reasons. Homeowners renovating a kitchen or living room need their sofas, dining tables, and wardrobes out of the way for weeks or months. Those moving between properties often face a gap between leaving one home and getting the keys to the next. Students, people moving abroad temporarily, and landlords preparing properties for new tenants all benefit from short-term or long-term furniture storage.
The key distinction between furniture storage and self-storage is convenience. With self-storage, you hire a unit and do all the heavy lifting yourself. With a full-service option like Giant Van, trained staff handle collection, loading, transport, and placement. Your furniture arrives at the facility safely wrapped and ready to be stored, and is returned to you on request. For large or fragile items such as antique dining sets, grand pianos, or glass-topped tables, professional handling removes the risk of damage during transit.
Furniture storage pricing in the UK depends on three main factors: the volume of items you need to store, the duration of storage, and the location of the facility.
As a general guide, storing the contents of a one-bedroom flat costs between £80 and £150 per month. A two-bedroom home typically runs £150 to £250 per month, and a three-bedroom house can range from £250 to £400 per month depending on the number of large items involved.
Giant Van offers transparent, itemised quotes so you know exactly what you are paying for before any van arrives at your door.
There are no hidden admin fees, no surprise charges for standard wrapping materials, and no mandatory long-term contracts. You can store for as little as one week or as long as two years.
Collection and delivery charges are quoted separately and depend on your postcode and the total volume of your load.
Customers within the M25 typically pay less for collection than those in more rural parts of the UK, though Giant Van operates nationally so the service is available across England, Scotland, and Wales.
If you are comparing quotes, watch for facilities that advertise a low monthly rate but charge separately for insurance, access, and admin.
Always ask for a fully-inclusive written quote. Giant Van includes basic goods-in-storage cover as standard, with optional higher-value cover available for antiques and high-end furniture. Call for a same-day quote.
Prices vary by volume, location, and duration. As a guide: one-bedroom flat contents from £80 per month, two-bedroom home from £150 per month, three-bedroom house from £250 per month. Collection and delivery charged separately based on postcode and load volume. No lock-in contracts. Basic goods-in-storage cover included. Enhanced cover available for high-value items. Call 020 3129 6180 for a fully-inclusive written quote on the same day you enquire.
All prices include a fully insured crew, van, and moving blankets. Packing services available as add-ons.
Get your exact priceDust, grease, and moisture accelerate deterioration in storage. Wipe down wooden surfaces with a dry cloth and vacuum upholstered items thoroughly before collection day.
Bed frames, flat-pack wardrobes, and dining tables take up far less floor space when broken down. Keep all screws and fixings in a labelled zip-lock bag taped to the main piece.
Plastic sheeting traps moisture and causes mould on fabric. Use cotton dust sheets or specialist furniture bags that allow air to circulate.
Giant Van supplies professional blanket wrapping for wooden tables, chests of drawers, and mirror-fronted wardrobes. This prevents scratches and chips during transit.
Placing a heavy box on a sofa for several months will compress and misshape the foam permanently. Stack hard furniture separately.
Sealed drawers in a storage environment can warp slightly as humidity fluctuates. A small gap allows air movement and prevents sticking.
Photograph each item and note any existing damage. This gives you a clear record if you ever need to make an insurance claim and speeds up the returns process when you need items back.
Enter your collection and delivery addresses, select your property size, and list any large items. See a fixed price in under 60 seconds.
Pick a date and time slot that works for you. Add packing materials or extra helpers if you need them.
A fully insured crew arrives on time, wraps and loads your belongings, and delivers everything to your new home.

The team is familiar with the access challenges of London flats, including narrow stairwells, no-parking zones, and restricted loading bays.
In the Midlands and North of England, the service covers Birmingham, Manchester, Leeds, Sheffield, and surrounding areas.
Storage facilities in these regions tend to offer lower monthly rates per cubic metre than equivalent facilities in London, which can make a meaningful difference on a six-month or twelve-month contract.
In Scotland, Giant Van serves Edinburgh, Glasgow, and Aberdeen, with collection routes running throughout the central belt and into the Highlands for larger moves.
For rural and remote locations, collection is available on a scheduled route basis, which may mean a slightly longer lead time between booking and collection day.

Giant Van also serves customers storing furniture ahead of international moves.
If you are relocating abroad and need UK-based storage while you settle in, the team can hold your items for up to two years with no requirement to be present in the UK to manage the contract.

Storage Fur Your Home: Complete UK Furniture Storage Guide Operations, Giant Van Driver
There are dozens of furniture storage companies operating across the UK. Here is why customers consistently return to Giant Van.
Trained crews, not agency staff. Every collection and delivery is handled by experienced Giant Van employees. The team is trained in furniture wrapping, load securing, and careful handling of fragile and high-value items. You will not find agency workers who have never met before loading your antique sideboard into a van.
Honest, transparent pricing. The quote you receive is the price you pay. Giant Van does not apply surprise charges for standard wrapping materials, fuel surcharges, or access fees. If anything changes between quote and collection, the team contacts you before proceeding.
Flexible terms that suit real life. Moving dates slip. Renovations run over schedule. Giant Van does not penalise customers for adjusting collection or return dates within reasonable notice. Monthly billing means you only pay for the time your furniture is actually in storage.
National reach, local knowledge. With operations across England, Scotland, and Wales, Giant Van understands the practical differences between storing furniture from a London flat and collecting from a rural farmhouse. Routes, vehicle sizes, and crew numbers are matched to each job.
Direct contact. Call to speak to a real person who can answer questions, adjust a booking, or arrange an urgent collection. There is no automated phone system to navigate before you reach someone who can help.

UK moving demand follows seasonal patterns. Off-peak months typically offer lower prices and more crew availability.
Understanding the alternatives helps you make the right choice for your situation and budget.
Companies like Safestore, Big Yellow, and CubeSmart offer units you rent and fill yourself. Monthly rates are often lower than full-service storage, but you must transport everything to the facility using your own van or a hired vehicle. For large or heavy furniture, this can mean multiple trips and a real risk of damage if you are not experienced in furniture handling.
Some companies store your belongings in a sealed metal container on a secure site. This can be a cost-effective option for long-term storage of large volumes, but access is usually difficult once the container is packed, and temperature fluctuations inside metal containers can damage wood and upholstery over time.
Storing furniture in a relative's garage or spare room is free but comes with risks. Damp, unheated outbuildings damage wood and fabric quickly. There is no insurance cover, no inventory, and no guaranteed access.
Delivered to your door, filled at your own pace, then collected and stored. A middle ground between full-service and self-storage. Pod access during the storage period is limited and collection windows can be inflexible.
