About Storage Addington
Storage Addington is a locally rooted removal and storage company serving homes and businesses throughout Addington and the surrounding area. From our early days helping neighbours move between flats near Addington Village to supporting full house moves across New Addington estates, we have grown into a trusted, professional area removal service committed to careful handling, fair pricing and genuine community care.
Our Story in the Addington Community
Our journey began over a decade ago, when our founders first started offering informal removal help for friends moving between properties near Gravel Hill and along Kent Gate Way. Word quickly spread that there was a reliable local team in Storage Addington who understood the streets, estates and access routes that can make moving day stressful.
Over the years, we have supported countless moves in and around Addington Village, Fieldway, and Monks Hill, helping families settle into new homes near Addington Palace, Forestdale and the green spaces around Addington Court. As our reputation grew, so did our services, evolving from a small local team into a fully established removal company in the area, now offering secure storage options and dedicated area removal service coverage.
Today, Storage Addington operates with the same neighbourly values we started with, but backed by professional systems, trained staff and full Environment Agency licensing for any waste and recycling we manage as part of a move.
Years of Local Experience
For over ten years, Storage Addington has been helping people move in and out of the Addington area, from maisonettes close to New Addington tram stop to larger family homes near Addington Hills and Selsdon Wood. Our crews understand the practical details that only come with time spent working locally, such as parking challenges on residential roads off Lodge Lane, or access issues around some of the older properties near Addington Palace Golf Club.
This local experience means our customers benefit from realistic planning, efficient loading and unloading, and a smoother moving day. We know the best routes to and from Croydon town centre, the quickest ways to reach neighbouring areas like Sanderstead and Shirley, and how to schedule your move to avoid peak congestion.
Licensed and Responsible Operations
Storage Addington operates as a fully licensed and compliant business. We are registered with the Environment Agency for the handling and transfer of waste materials that can arise during removals and clearances. This matters because it protects our customers from the risks of unlicensed operators who may dispose of items illegally.
Whether we are clearing out unwanted furniture from a flat near King Henrys Drive or removing old office equipment from a business unit close to the A2022, you can be confident that anything we take away is managed responsibly and in line with all regulatory requirements.
Trained and Professional Staff
Every member of the Storage Addington team is trained in safe lifting, packing and handling practices. Our crews are experienced in navigating stairs in older buildings, manoeuvring large items through tight hallways, and protecting floors and doorways from damage.
New staff members work alongside seasoned team leaders who have completed many moves in the Addington area and beyond. This hands-on local training ensures our standards remain consistently high, whether we are handling a single room move from a flat near Fieldway tram stop or a full house relocation from an estate near Addington Park.
Our Mission and Values
The mission of Storage Addington is straightforward: to provide a removal and storage service that local residents can depend on, built on honesty, care and responsibility. We believe that moving does not need to be stressful, and that a good removal company in the area should offer clear communication, punctual arrivals and respectful handling of every item we move.
Our values are rooted in three core principles. First, reliability: doing what we say we will do, on time. Second, respect: for our customers, their possessions and their homes. Third, responsibility: to our community and our environment, making sure that our work leaves a positive impact.
Eco-Responsibility at the Heart of What We Do
Eco-responsibility is a central part of how Storage Addington operates. We plan routes carefully to minimise unnecessary mileage across the Addington and Croydon area, and we encourage customers to reuse boxes and packing materials wherever possible. When additional packaging is required, we prioritise recyclable and reusable options.
As an Environment Agency registered carrier, we handle unwanted items in a way that reduces landfill. We separate reusable furniture, recyclable materials and general waste, ensuring that as much as possible is diverted from disposal. Our teams are trained to identify items that can be reused or recycled, from metal bed frames and wooden furniture to cardboard and certain plastics.
Recycling Partnerships and Local Centres
Our commitment to eco-responsibility extends to our partnerships and working relationships with local recycling services. When carrying out house moves and clearances, we make use of authorised facilities such as the borough recycling centre at Factory Lane in Croydon and other council-approved sites serving the wider area.
By working closely with these centres and following their guidelines, Storage Addington helps ensure that items collected during removals are sorted correctly and processed responsibly. This approach supports our goal of offering an area removal service that respects both our customers and the environment around us.
Strong Community Ties
Storage Addington is more than just a removal company in the area; we are part of the community. Our team members live in and around Addington, shop locally, and make regular use of parks such as Addington Hills, Milne Park and the playing fields around New Addington. Many of our earliest customers still recommend us to friends and family moving within the local estates and streets where we first started.
We have supported community events, school collections and local initiatives over the years, providing practical help when residents or community groups need assistance moving items or setting up for events. Being based here means we care deeply about keeping the area clean, organised and welcoming for everyone who lives and works in Addington.
