Storing Valued Items in Storage Facilities in London

Storage facilities in London can be a life saver; flats with minimal space can prove a nightmare, but storage facilities can ease the stress this presents. If you are someone who has valued belongings, whether that’s sentimental or monetary and you have nowhere to store them,  Store That can help!  We have been storing for over 70 years, so we know a thing or two about how you should be storing your items. In this blog, the Store That team are going to share some of their knowledge with you! 

Ensure there is good security 

First and foremost, when choosing from the storage facilities in London, you need to ensure there is a good security system in place. Here at Store That, we have 24 hour in-house security and CCTV coverage throughout the building. It’s up to you who you give access to your unit but we strongly advise you inform the office of any other parties you authorise and a note is then kept on your file. You should also state whether access is a one-off or open. Ideally, we like the person to introduce themselves in the first instance, with ID, so we know the face. 

Protect sentimental value items

Some items you may choose to store, may not be valuable in terms of money, but they may have a deeper meaning to you. Depending on what the items are, you should ensure you buy a box that is airtight so that no dust, potential moisture in the air, or other elements, can affect your item. Usually, items that have a sentimental value to us, are older items, or they are so precious we can’t bear the thought of them becoming damaged. You should treat them as if they have a high monetary value to ensure they are protected in the right way.
