What moves the price

  • Rooms of furniture — a one-bed flat's furniture needs a small unit, a family home's needs a large one or a container
  • Self storage or container — furniture packed into a container on an out-of-town site often costs less than a high-street unit
  • Collection and delivery — having the storage firm collect and return your furniture adds two removal journeys
  • Location — furniture storage in London and the South East costs more per month than in the rest of the country
  • Climate control — antiques, pianos and fine wood furniture may need a heated, dry space that costs more
  • Length of stay — a longer furniture storage booking usually earns a better monthly rate

How to pay less

  • Sell or donate furniture you will not want again before paying to store it
  • Dismantle beds, tables and wardrobes so the furniture packs into a smaller unit
  • Use a container storage site out of town if you will not need to reach the furniture often

Before you book

  • Wrap upholstered furniture and mattresses in breathable covers rather than sealed plastic, which traps damp
  • Check that your contents insurance or the storage firm's cover includes the full value of the furniture
  • Photograph each piece of furniture and note any existing marks before it goes into storage
  • Ask whether the furniture storage site is heated if you are storing antiques or fine wood

£60–£300 a month, with about £130 for a small flat's furniture. A small unit outside the cities costs least; a large unit for a whole house in London costs most.

Usually within a few days, and often the same day for self storage. Removal firms that store furniture in containers can collect on your moving day.

It can if the space is not dry. A sealed container or indoor unit with good airflow, breathable covers and furniture raised off the floor keep wood and fabric in good order.

Yes. Many removal firms collect, store in containers and redeliver, which saves loading and unloading the furniture yourself.

Packing, dismantling, collection and delivery, and insurance are usually separate from the storage charge.
