Bayswater Storage

No. Boxing up smaller belongings before we arrive helps, but nothing needs to be perfect. We bring the van, do the loading, and carry everything out for you. Furniture and larger items you can leave to us entirely. If you’re not sure where to start, just ask when you book.

Yes. You can ask for one or two things back at a time rather than having everything returned. What comes back is whatever we collected, so a box, a chest of drawers, a bike. It’s all logged on an inventory when it goes into storage, so you can tell us which box you want and we’ll bring that box back to you.

JamStorage is designed for customers who need storage for at least a few weeks. If you’re only after something very short-term, we might not be the right fit, but we’re always happy to talk it through. Give us a call and we’ll work out what suits you.

Yes. When you want your belongings back, we can return them to a different address from the one we collected from. That suits people who’ve moved in the meantime, or who are storing while a sale goes through. Just give us the new address when you arrange the return.

Pack into sturdy, uniform boxes wherever you can. Boxes of the same size stack neatly and take the weight of the ones above them, so you can build upwards and use the full height of your space rather than just the floor. Bags and holdalls do the opposite. They slump, lose their shape under anything heavy and won’t stack safely, so you end up with gaps and wasted room. Good boxes also keep what’s inside protected and easier to get to later. It’s worth using several smaller, labelled boxes rather than a few big ones, because when you ask for something back you’ll get the whole box. If you’d rather not pack yourself, we can bring materials on collection day and help you get sorted, and you only pay for what we use.

Yes. A first or second floor flat over a Queensway shopfront usually means a separate street door, a narrow stair and no lift, sometimes with an entrance shared between several flats. None of that is a problem when we know about it beforehand. Tell us the floor, what the stair is like and whether there’s a door code when you book, and we’ll send the right size team and work out where the van waits.

Yes. Mansion blocks and large stucco conversions are the everyday housing around here, so awkward access is normal for us rather than unusual. We won’t promise there’ll be a lift, or that a particular staircase will take a wardrobe in one piece, so the more you can tell us in advance the better. Mention the floor, the stair, any lift, and whether there’s a porter or an entry system when you book, and we’ll work it out with you before the day rather than on the doorstep.
