SECURITY

Security That Means Business

Your stock, documents, and equipment are valuable. Our facilities are designed to protect them with multiple overlapping security measures — from the perimeter fence to your individual unit door.

Perimeter Protection

Steel palisade fencing, anti-climb measures, and single-entry point with ANPR number plate recognition. The site perimeter is monitored continuously.

Access Control

Personalised PIN codes or biometric access. Every entry and exit is logged. You can add or remove authorised staff members at any time.

24/7 CCTV Monitoring

High-definition cameras covering every corridor, entrance, and loading area. Footage is recorded and retained. Remote monitoring centre responds to alerts.

Individual Unit Alarms

Each unit has its own alarm, armed and disarmed by your unique access code. Any unauthorised entry attempt triggers an immediate response.

Fire Detection & Prevention

Smoke detectors, heat sensors, and sprinkler systems throughout the facility. Regular fire risk assessments and equipment maintenance.

Insurance Protection

Your stored items are covered under our storage agreement. We will explain the coverage details and can arrange additional protection for high-value items.

INDUSTRY SOLUTIONS

Storage Solutions by Sector

Every industry has different storage challenges. Here is how we solve them for businesses like yours.

Legal & Professional Services

The Challenge

Law firms, solicitors, and accountants accumulate years of case files and financial records that must be retained for compliance but rarely accessed day to day.

Our Solution

Climate-controlled document archiving with barcode indexing, rapid file retrieval, and secure destruction when retention periods expire.

Recommended: Document & Archive Storage

Technology & IT Companies

The Challenge

Hardware refresh cycles, office moves, and remote working transitions create a need to store servers, workstations, and networking equipment securely.

Our Solution

Anti-static storage environments with climate control, full asset tracking, and flexible access for your IT team during migration projects.

Recommended: Office Equipment & IT Storage

E-commerce & Retail

The Challenge

Seasonal stock peaks, product launches, and returns processing create fluctuating storage requirements that are expensive to accommodate in-house.

Our Solution

Scalable pallet storage with pick-and-pack support, loading bays for courier collections, and flexible terms that match your trading patterns.

Recommended: Stock & Inventory Storage

Construction & Trades

The Challenge

Builders, electricians, and plumbers need secure overnight storage for tools, materials, and machinery that cannot be left on site.

Our Solution

Drive-up ground floor units with 24/7 access, wide doors for larger equipment, and no restrictions on access frequency.

Recommended: Commercial Storage Units

Events & Exhibitions

The Challenge

Exhibition stands, display materials, and event equipment are used intermittently but take up valuable office or warehouse space between events.

Our Solution

Flexible storage with good transport links, loading bays, and the ability to accept deliveries from your suppliers and couriers.

Recommended: Commercial Storage Units

Healthcare & Medical

The Challenge

Patient records, medical equipment, and pharmaceutical stock require controlled storage conditions and strict access controls.

Recommended: Document & Archive Storage

THE PROCESS

How to Get Started

From first enquiry to fully operational storage — clear, straightforward, and without the fine print.

01

Tell Us What You Need

Describe what you are storing, how much of it there is, and how often you need access. We will recommend the right unit type and size — no obligation, no pressure.

You can call us, fill in the quote form, or arrange a site visit. We will ask about your business, your storage goals, and any special requirements like climate control or frequent courier collections.

02

Visit and Choose Your Unit

Tour the facility, inspect the units we recommend, and select the one that fits. See the security, access, and loading facilities for yourself.

We encourage every business customer to visit before committing. Walk the corridors, check the access routes, and feel confident the facility meets your standards.

03

Set Up Access and Move In

We configure your access codes or keys. You can move in on your schedule — use your own transport or our collection and delivery service.

Access can be activated immediately or on a future date. Our team can collect from your current location, transport everything, and help you organise the unit with shelving if needed.

04

Use Your Space Your Way

Access your unit 24/7. Add or remove items as your business requires. Request additional services like document retrieval or stock despatch when needed.

There are no restrictions on access frequency. Come daily, weekly, or monthly — whatever works for your business. Manage your account online or speak to the on-site team.

05

Scale or Adjust as You Grow

Need more space? Less? A different type of unit? Switch with 7 days notice. Your storage adapts to your business, not the other way round.

Business needs change. We make it straightforward to upsize, downsize, or consolidate multiple units. No penalty clauses, no long negotiations — just let us know what you need.

TESTIMONIALS

Business moving support

Real feedback from businesses using our storage facilities day in, day out.

“We moved our entire document archive to Vano Removals during an office relocation. The barcode tracking system means we can locate any file in minutes. It has freed up so much floor space in our new office.”

“Our e-commerce business tripled during the pandemic and we simply ran out of space. Vano gave us a 200 sq ft unit with pallet racking at a few days notice. The loading bay access makes courier collections seamless.”
Operations Director

“We needed temporary storage for office furniture during a six-week refurbishment. Everything was inventoried, wrapped, and stored securely. Delivery back to the new office was phased perfectly with the building work.”

The cost depends on three main factors: the size of unit you need, the location, and any additional features such as climate control or 24/7 access. Rather than publish fixed prices that may not reflect your specific situation, we provide tailored quotes based on what you actually require. Contact Vano Removals, tell us about your storage needs, and we will give you a clear, itemised price with no hidden charges.
This depends entirely on what you are storing. As a rough guide: 25 sq ft holds approximately 50 archive boxes or a few items of office furniture. 50 sq ft accommodates the contents of a studio flat or around 100 archive boxes. 100 sq ft fits the contents of a 1-bedroom flat or 4–5 pallets. 200 sq ft handles a 2-bedroom house worth of items or 8–10 pallets. If you are unsure, describe what you have and our team will advise — we size units for businesses every day.
Security is built into every layer of our facilities: perimeter fencing with ANPR-controlled entry, 24/7 HD CCTV covering all areas, individually alarmed units with personalised access codes, fire detection and suppression systems, and a remote monitoring centre that responds to alerts immediately. We are happy to walk you through all security measures during a site visit so you can see them for yourself.
Yes. Business customers have 24/7 access as standard — including evenings, weekends, and all bank holidays. There are no time restrictions, no additional charges for out-of-hours access, and no limits on how frequently you visit. Your PIN or access code works whenever you need it.
Absolutely. Our minimum term is just one week. You are not locked into a long contract. If you need to upsize, downsize, or leave entirely, we ask for 7 days notice. This flexibility is particularly useful for seasonal businesses, project-based work, and companies going through office moves or refurbishments.
Yes. We offer a full collection and delivery service. Our team can collect from your office, warehouse, shop, or multiple locations — and transport everything to our storage facility. When you need items back, we deliver them to wherever you need them. This service is particularly popular for office moves, stock rotations, and document retrieval.
Yes, there are important differences. Business storage facilities are designed for commercial use: wider corridors, loading bays, forklift access, pallet storage options, climate-controlled document archives, and the ability to grant access to multiple staff members. Self-storage is typically aimed at personal use and does not always offer the infrastructure or access arrangements businesses need day to day.
We can supply and install shelving, pallet racking, and other storage infrastructure within your unit. This is charged separately and can be tailored to your specific inventory. Many business customers find that racking dramatically increases the usable capacity of their unit and makes stock management much easier.
If you use our document archiving service, you can request file retrieval by phone or email. We locate the file using our barcode tracking system and can deliver it to your office, scan and email it, or have it ready for collection — usually within the same business day. For urgent requests, we can prioritise retrieval.
Yes. You can authorise as many staff members as you need. Each person receives their own access code or key, and all entries and exits are logged individually. You can add or remove people at any time — useful when team members leave or new ones join.
Insurance is included as part of your storage agreement. We will explain exactly what is covered when you enquire, so there are no surprises. If you are storing particularly high-value items — artwork, specialised equipment, or large volumes of stock — we can discuss additional cover to make sure you are fully protected.
