Whether you’re between jobs or just out of room in the van, here’s how our equipment storage solutions can help:
Keep your tools safe
Don’t risk having your expensive kit in the van overnight being broken into and stolen. Our equipment storage units keep everything locked away and out of sight.
Protect your gear
Indoor storage keeps out damp, rust, and mould so your equipment stays in top condition for longer.
Clear your space
Free up the garage, spare room, or workshop so you’ve got room to work without tripping over gear.

Everything’s where you left it. No wasted time digging through piles of tools or searching the back of the van.

Tips for Storing Tools and Equipment
It might be tempting to just throw everything into a box and call it a day, but proper storage keeps your tools safer, more organised, and in better condition. Follow these quick tips to get the most out of your unit.
Clean your tools before storage
Clean tools last longer, especially in long-term storage. Wipe off dust, dirt, and moisture to help prevent rust, corrosion, or surface damage over the course of several months.
Remove batteries and fuel
Take out batteries from cordless tools and drain fuel from petrol-powered gear to reduce fire risk and keep your unit safe.
Use proper boxes or containers
Use sturdy, labelled boxes or plastic crates to keep your gear organised, easier to access, and better protected from damage.
Label your toolboxes or containers
Group tools by type or trade and label them clearly. This is particularly helpful if you need to quickly retrieve your tools between jobs.
Keep heavy items low
Keep your heavier pieces of equipment like generators, pressure washers, or tool chests near the bottom of your unit.
Create a layout that works
Keep your most-used tools close to the entrance to save time retrieving your items.

FAQs
-
Can I store power tools and machinery?
Yes. Most tools and equipment can be stored safely, including power tools, toolboxes, ladders, and larger trade gear. Just make sure any fuel is drained from petrol-powered tools, and remove batteries from cordless ones before storing.
-
Can I store heavy equipment or machinery?
Absolutely. Our larger units and container storage options are ideal for items like cement mixers, pressure washers, generators, and landscaping equipment. Many locations offer drive-up access to make loading and unloading easier.
-
Is my equipment insured while in storage?
We offer optional insurance when you book your unit. It is strongly recommended for high-value tools or specialist equipment. Our team can help you choose the right level of cover.
-
Can I access my tools outside normal hours?
Most London branches are open Monday to Friday from 8:30 am to 5 pm, Saturdays until 1:30 pm, and Sundays until 11:30 am. Some sites, like Staples Corner, may open earlier on weekdays. Click+Store units require pre-arranged access, so check with your location in advance.
-
What size unit do I need for my tools?
It depends on what you are storing. Smaller units (10 to 25 sq ft) work well for toolboxes and power tools. If you have bulkier items or a larger setup, a mid-size or container unit may be a better fit. Use our Space Estimator or call us for guidance.
