About Storage Canning Town
Storage Canning Town is a locally rooted storage and removal company, created to make moving and storing belongings in Canning Town simple, secure and stress free. From short term storage between tenancies to full house or flat removals, we provide a reliable area removal service with a personal touch and a strong commitment to our neighbourhood.
Our Story and Local Roots
Our journey began when our founders, long term residents of Newham, noticed that people in and around Canning Town were struggling to find flexible, trustworthy storage close to home. With new developments springing up around Silvertown Way, the Royal Docks and along Barking Road, more residents were moving between flats, downsizing, or needing extra space during renovations.
What started as a small local storage solution grew into Storage Canning Town, a dedicated storage and removal company focused on serving our immediate community. Over the years we have helped families moving within the Keir Hardie Estate, professionals relocating near Canning Town Station, students sharing flats close to Royal Victoria, and businesses based around the Rathbone Market area.
Years of Local Service
For over a decade, Storage Canning Town has been supporting residents and businesses across Canning Town, Custom House, Plaistow and the wider E16 and E13 postcodes. Our area removal service has safely transported belongings along roads like Silvertown Way, Barking Road, Hermit Road and Freemasons Road, and into developments surrounding Royal Victoria Dock and the Emirates Air Line cable car.
These years of hands on experience in the local streets mean we know the best access routes, loading spots and timing for moves in and around Canning Town. Whether you are in a high rise near Canning Town Station, a terraced house off Barking Road or a riverside apartment near the Thames Barrier, our team understands the specific challenges of moving and storing in this part of East London.
Environment Agency Licensed and Responsible
Storage Canning Town operates as a fully registered and Environment Agency licensed waste carrier. This means that when we clear items as part of a removal, declutter or end of tenancy service, you can be confident that everything is handled and disposed of responsibly. We never use unlicensed tips or fly tipping sites, and we can explain clearly what happens to your items once they leave your property.
Our licensing underlines our commitment to professionalism and accountability. As a trusted removal company in the area, we believe that legal compliance and traceability are just as important as careful handling and punctual collections.
Trained, Careful and Friendly Staff
Our team is made up of trained local staff who know Canning Town and the surrounding streets extremely well. Each member is instructed in safe lifting techniques, packing and loading methods, and secure storage procedures. We take great care with everything from delicate ornaments and electronics to bulky furniture, office equipment and archive boxes.
Team members receive regular training on health and safety, customer service and environmentally responsible working practices. Because many of our staff live nearby, we treat every move and storage booking as if we were helping a neighbour. Respect for your time, your belongings and your home is at the centre of how Storage Canning Town operates.
Our Mission
The mission of Storage Canning Town is to provide straightforward, secure and affordable storage and removal services for people living and working in Canning Town and the surrounding area. We aim to remove the stress from moving days and storage transitions, while operating in a way that respects our local environment and community.
We want to be the first choice for anyone searching for Storage Canning Town, a removal company in the area or a flexible area removal service. Reliability, clear communication, fair pricing and care for the environment guide every decision we make.
Eco Responsibility and Recycling Partnerships
Eco responsibility is built into our day to day operations. We plan routes carefully to reduce unnecessary mileage, maintain our vehicles to improve fuel efficiency, and encourage the reuse of boxes and packing materials wherever practical. When customers have items they no longer need, we prioritise reuse, donation and recycling ahead of disposal.
Storage Canning Town actively works with local borough recycling facilities operated by Newham. Where appropriate, we utilise Newham recycling and reuse centres to ensure materials such as metal, wood, cardboard, electrical items and appliances are correctly separated and processed, not simply sent to landfill. By working in line with Newham Council guidelines, we help reduce waste and keep our area cleaner.
We also encourage customers to sort items before a removal or storage booking, separating those suitable for donation, recycling and disposal. Our team can advise on the best way to prepare and label items so that recyclable materials are diverted away from general waste wherever possible.
Community Ties and Local Involvement
Canning Town is more than just where we work, it is our home. You will often see our vehicles around landmarks such as Canning Town Station, Star Lane Park, Memorial Recreation Ground and along the A13 and Leamouth Road as we help residents move in and out of the area. We understand the character of local estates such as Keir Hardie and the streets around Hermit Road Recreation Ground, and we take pride in contributing positively to daily life here.
Over the years we have supported local schools, community events and small businesses by offering flexible storage and removal solutions. We understand that many people in Canning Town work shifts or long hours, so we do our best to accommodate timing needs while still operating safely and responsibly.
