We've got answers...
Where is your storage site located?
35a Marsh Way, Rainham RM13 8UH
Take a look at our London Storage UnitWhat is the size of each container?
Each container is 155cm (5 feet) wide x 215cm (7 feet) deep x 245cm (8 feet) tall. This is 3.3 sq metres (35 square feet) and 8 cubic metres (280 cubic feet).
Where are the storage depots near Hendon?
Every branded facility serving Hendon is at Staples Corner. We deliver a container to your NW4 address instead, so there is no van to load or gyratory to drive.
Can I store while moving out of West Hendon?
Yes. Families decanting from the West Hendon estate, or selling on Shirehall Lane while waiting for Brent Cross South, often store between houses with us.
Hendon removalsHow many containers does a Hendon semi need?
Three cover a two-bedroom home, typical of the 1930s semis between Parson Street and Church Road, and four to six the larger houses along Holders Hill Road.
Is it possible to fit large pieces of furniture inside?
Yes, it is very unlikely that an item of furniture will not fit.
Do I need to come to the storage premises if I’ve booked a removal and storage combined?
No. We can take your items and place them in storage without you being there. You can sign all the relevant documents online.

Yes, with at least 36 working hours' notice (Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm). There is a fee of £5 (VAT incl.) per container each time.
Are there any restrictions on what I can store?
Yes, there are a few exceptions, please refer to our terms and conditions
When I want to remove my belongings from storage permanently do I need to give you advance notice?
Yes. To end your storage, please give us at least 10 working days' notice, as set out in our terms and conditions. Storage is charged until the notice period ends.
Are my items insured?
Yes. Each container has insurance for a total value of £2000. You can also purchase extra insurance if your items are worth more.
Do I need a padlock?
No. Each container has is own self-locking system.

Self-Storage Hendon
Self-Storage Hendon: We Collect from NW4
Every branded storage facility serving Hendon sits in the same place, Staples Corner, where the A5, A406 North Circular, and the bottom of the M1 converge into one of the busiest commercial junctions in Northwest London.
Big Yellow, Henfield, and Vanguard all operate from depots within a few hundred metres of each other on the Staples Corner retail park.
For anyone living along Brent Street, around The Burroughs, or on the residential streets between Holders Hill Road and Queens Road, reaching those depots means loading a hired van on a narrow NW4 street, negotiating the Brent Cross gyratory or the Staples Corner interchange, and unloading again into a shared-access corridor.
About Hendon Self Storage Services
Our Hendon storage does away with all that. Your container comes to your NW4 address, is loaded on the spot by our crew and goes to our monitored facility, sealed. Your container is returned to the address of your choice whenever you need it. One booking replaces the van hire, the fuel, and the congested drive to Staples Corner.
With AIM accreditation and over fifteen years in London, RMV is an established removal and storage company. Containers sit in fenced, alarmed premises under 24-hour CCTV, covered by our full Goods in Transit and warehouse-keeper liability insurance. Every container is stored in a gated, fenced site with intruder alarms and constant CCTV.
Independently checkable credentials say more about a storage provider than an introductory offer does. Our accreditation and insurance papers are on the About Us page.
The Cost of Storage in Hendon
Measuring 155 cm x 215 cm x 245 cm, each unit has 280 cubic feet of usable space. At £19.99 per container per week, three containers come to £59.97 and six to £119.94.
Collection from your NW4 address, labour, dismantling, protective wrapping, transport and return delivery are all included. You will not find teaser rates that reset, per-visit charges or weekend extras.
Customers searching for cheap self-storage or affordable self-storage in NW4 will find that the total cost undercuts walk-in depots once you factor in the van hire, fuel, and loading labour those facilities assume you will arrange yourself.
The real comparison for how to find cheap storage near me is the full cost, including the van and labour.
Rental is on a rolling monthly basis, and there is no contract term. Stop at any time, with no exit fees and no minimum term: give at least 10 working days' notice, and storage is charged until the notice period ends.
Short-term storage for a completion gap and long-term storage for a year abroad both work the same way.
Working Out Your Space in Hendon
A large bedroom or studio fits inside one. Most one-bedroom homes fit in two containers.
Three cover a standard two-bedroom home, the dominant format in the 1930s semi-detached streets between Parson Street and Church Road that define most of residential NW4.
Four to six containers absorb the larger detached houses found along Holders Hill Road, the properties backing onto Sunny Hill Park, and the family homes toward Mill Hill and Totteridge.
Pay for the space you use, from a handful of boxes to the contents of an entire home. Enter your rooms and main furniture in the online calculator to see how many containers you need and the price.
Storage During a Hendon House Move
Hendon’s property market sits between established 1930s suburbia, the West Hendon regeneration zone along the Welsh Harp reservoir, and the Brent Cross South development that will reshape the southern edge of NW4 over the coming decade. Chains collapse, completions slip, and phased regeneration timelines rarely align with individual lease end dates.
Storage covers those gaps. The Hendon removals crew loads everything into containers on moving day, stores them, and delivers when you can move in. One booking covers both the move and the storage, with the same crew and insurance throughout.
Storage between houses is one of the most common NW4 bookings, particularly for families decanting from the West Hendon estate during phased demolition or selling a semi on Shirehall Lane while waiting on a new-build completion at Brent Cross South.
Smaller jobs work too: a room emptied for a rear extension, a study cleared for building work, or furniture too big for a smaller flat near Hendon Central station, our Hendon man and van collects, loads, and delivers to the facility in one trip. One call arranges both the move and the storage, with the same fleet, crew and insurance.
Who Uses Self-Storage in Hendon?
Storage facilities near Hendon serve a suburban borough where inter-war semis dominate the housing stock and most properties lack a garage or have long since converted theirs into a utility room or extra bedroom.
Homeowners across NW4 use furniture storage during kitchen refits, side-return extensions, and the increasingly common loft conversion projects that require first-floor rooms to be cleared completely. Landlords managing rental properties along Brent Street and the streets around Hendon Central rotate tenant furnishings between lets.
Student storage London picks up each summer from Middlesex University students at The Burroughs campus, as well as the postgraduate renters across NW4 who store between academic years or during overseas placements.
Business storage units serve the independent retailers, kosher food businesses, and professional practices clustered along Brent Street and Sentinel Square.
Document storage and archive storage suit the solicitor offices, accountancy firms, and medical practices around Hendon Central that retain years of physical client records under regulatory obligations but operate from premises designed as residential properties with no spare filing capacity.
Seasonal storage works for any NW4 household where garden furniture, sporting equipment, holiday decorations, and pushchairs compete for the same limited hallway or shed space, a problem that intensifies in the 1930s semis where the original coal shed is the only outdoor storage and the integral garage, if the house ever had one, was converted decades ago.
Vehicle storage suits residents on CPZ-restricted streets who keep a second car, a classic vehicle, or a camper van they cannot park outside the property year-round.
Bike storage units serve the cycling commuters heading to Hendon Central or Finchley who lack covered parking at home and face theft risk from hallway or front-garden storage.
Tradespeople in NW4 use garage storage units for tools, equipment and stock, rather than paying for yard space along the North Circular. Each dry, ventilated, clean container is insured for £2,000, and more cover is available on request.
Packing for Storage
Storing for months? Prepare your things first. Protect mattresses with sealed covers, wrap ceramics and glass separately, and keep dust sheets on upholstery.
You can leave packing to the crew, book a separate Hendon packing service, or order boxes and wrap from our Packing Shop for your NW4 address.
Our blog has packing guides and explains what you can store in a storage unit. Knowing the cost is useful; packing properly is what protects your things.
Coverage Beyond Hendon
Collection is available from any postcode nearby. The same container service runs in Golders Green, Edgware, Barnet, Neasden, and Brent. When a Hendon move ends abroad, our international removals team arranges shipping, customs and door-to-door logistics.
The same weekly rate applies to anything you keep in storage while you live abroad, so there is no need to hold on to a tenancy.
RMV storage in Hendon works for a few boxes, a single room or an entire home, always insured, crew-loaded and contract-free. No driving to Staples Corner in traffic, no queuing for a corridor unit, no padlock to lose. Our team is on 0208 0900 232, or you can book online, for door-to-door storage in Hendon.

Storage tips
Storing it the right way
What you can’t store
Nothing perishable, such as food or plants. Nothing flammable or hazardous, such as paint, aerosols, gas canisters, petrol, fireworks or chemicals. Nothing illegal and nothing alive. Rugs, soft furnishings and mattresses should be clean and completely dry.
Storage rules explainedIs it worth storing?
Ask two questions: would you buy it again today at full price, and would storing it for as long as you expect cost more than replacing it later? Irreplaceable items, and records you must legally keep, sit outside that test.
Is storage worth it?Set a review date
Put a review date in the calendar on day one: six weeks of storage during a chain can quietly become three years. At each review, bring it home, dispose of it, or decide to keep storing it for a stated reason.
Is storage worth it?I've used RMV a total of 6 times now for both house moves and putting items into storage. The service has always been highly professional, swift, reasonably priced AND customer care seems to be top of their list of priorities. These are just some of the reasons why I continue to use them for my moves and I cannot recommend them highly enough. Thanks Riki & the rest of the team.
