Storage

Need storage space? Are you between houses or de-cluttering your home? Or perhaps your business is growing? Whatever the reason, Britannia Willis can offer a secure, and purpose-built storage solution, we provide both household (domestic) and commercial storage services.

A Wide Range Of Storage Services

Do you have just a few boxes to store? Or you have what seems like an endless pile of boxes? Britannia Willis will happily store as little as a box. And we’ve never been asked to store an amount bigger than we could cope with.
Depending on your needs, we have a range of storage options available. If you will not need your items very frequently during storage and if you want a secure and cost-effective solution, container storage would be a perfect choice. Self storage is a convenient way to store your items to which you need regular access.

Containerised Storage– Firstly we visit your home & provide a free no obligation quotation. Our fully trained team wrap and prepare items, take a full inventory and load your effects into specially designed storage containers which are portable and for added safety and peace of mind we load them on site at your property using our purpose built vehicles, once sealed in the storage container your effects are locked away and protected until they arrive at final destination once removed from storage. Due to the fact that our staff fully wrap and protect items to our high standards this method of storage comes with full insurance cover. We can also pack all of your boxes / cartons if you require this service.

Self Storage – we offer purpose built storage units for rental on site here in Skipton, the units are located inside a large warehouse which is dry, fully insulated, alarmed and cctv protected. You are welcome to bring items in yourself and can access the units as many times as you wish within our working hours. The units vary in size and cost, more information can be found at www.skiptonselfstore.co.uk

Sofa Storage – We offer purpose made suite racks to ensure your sofas are stored correctly, avoiding the risk of ‘crush’ or ‘pressure’ marks which can be caused when such items are stacked or upended within more basic facilities.

Piano Storage – We have a purpose built temperature controlled room for the storage of upright & grande pianos. Our fully trained removal crew are very experienced at removing pianos.

Pallet / Warehouse Storage – We also offer traditional warehouse style storage and space for pallets which can be kept accessible if you need ongoing access. Forklift handling facilities are also available.

Packing materials - we also have a range of packing materials, and storage boxes available at our depot here in Skipton.

Secure Storage

Our high-security storage warehouses are fully equipped with intruder alarms and smoke detection systems providing peace of mind 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. You can thus rest assured that your goods are safe at all times, no matter which storage option you choose.

Storage Access

Access to our self storage units is free of charge and unlimited within our normal office working hours:

Monday – Friday: 9am – 5pm

Saturday: 8am – 12 Lunchtime

and you can even access your items if you chose container storage, though in this case, we do need some notice and a standard charge will apply.

If you need storage space for your household goods, call us on 01756 792980, and choose from our range of storage options. You are also welcome to inspect any of our facilities during our office open hours.
