Long-Term Storage
Long term storage, as the name implies, refers to space that’s been made available for personal or business assets which may have no immediate use but are vital to keep. We appreciate that you can’t always carry everything you care about with you which is why the long term storage solution we offer is flexible, affordable and incredibly secure – ensuring you can leave things behind with the full confidence that you’ll be able to access as and when you need to.

All of your FAQ’s
Are there any hidden costs?
The price that we quote for storage costs includes all service charges, maintenance charges, and rates and also VAT where this applies. You will need to make sure you have a Protection Plan but we are able to arrange this for you too. Other than that, if you're storing at Bow, you just need a padlock. You are welcome to bring your own or we do sell them in-store too if this is easier. That’s it - there are no other charges. What’s more, unlike some other companies, we provide complimentary 24-hour free access, free WiFi, use of our trolleys, and a free goods receipt and dispatch service. If you have any concerns about costs then please speak to a member of our team.
Do I need to protect my goods while in storage?
We are able to protect your goods with Protection Plan using an arrangement with our industry specialist insurance brokers. With knowledge of the self-storage industry and customer needs, in the unlikely event of loss or damage they handle and process claims quickly and with minimum hassle. We do need to charge for the administration costs of this protection and these charges will be added to your storage costs. You are perfectly welcome to take out your own insurance cover but since it is a requirement of the Self Storage Association UK, we will have to ask for evidence that you have this in place before you can move your things in. Most of our customers do however prefer to use our arrangements as it is the most convenient option.
How do I pay for storage?
We invoice all of our clients on a 4-weekly basis, so you’ll always make your payment on the same day every four weeks. We accept credit or debit card payments but don’t accept cash or cheques. You can manage all your payments easily from your online account.
