Our Company Story
Storage Riddlesdown began over a decade ago with a simple idea: to offer a dependable local storage and removal company that truly understands the needs of the Riddlesdown community. What started as a small family-run operation helping residents move between flats near Riddlesdown Station and houses around Honister Heights has grown into a trusted, full service storage and area removal service.
In our early years, we focused on local house moves and light commercial removals across Riddlesdown and nearby areas such as Purley, Sanderstead and Kenley. As demand grew, customers began asking for secure storage options during renovations, downsizing or extended travel. In response, we invested in modern storage facilities and developed flexible storage plans tailored to local residents, students and small businesses.
Today, Storage Riddlesdown combines professional storage services with a comprehensive area removal service, handling everything from small flat moves near Riddlesdown Park to larger family relocations along Borough Hill and beyond. Throughout our growth, we have stayed true to our original values of honesty, reliability and respect for our community and local environment.
Years of Experience in Riddlesdown
For over 10 years, Storage Riddlesdown has been helping people move in and out of the local area, supporting everyone from first time buyers settling near Riddlesdown Common to long established families relocating from the tree lined roads off Purley Downs Road. Our experience means we know the local streets, parking considerations and access routes that are unique to this part of the borough.
Because we know Riddlesdown so well, we can plan efficient moves and storage logistics, whether we are navigating narrow residential roads, coordinating with local schools, or working around busy commuter times at Riddlesdown Station. This local knowledge saves our customers time, reduces stress and helps ensure that possessions are handled carefully from start to finish.
Licensed and Environmentally Responsible
Storage Riddlesdown takes its environmental responsibilities seriously. We are fully registered with the Environment Agency as a licensed waste carrier, giving our customers confidence that any unwanted items removed during a move or clear out are dealt with legally, safely and ethically. This is especially important when handling items that cannot simply be thrown away or placed in household waste.
As part of our commitment to eco responsible storage and removals, we work closely with local borough recycling centres and authorised partners to reduce what goes to landfill. Where possible, we separate materials and deliver suitable items to official recycling sites within the borough. When a customer in Riddlesdown asks us to dispose of old furniture, electricals or bulky waste, they know it will be managed in accordance with Environment Agency standards.
Trained and Professional Local Staff
Our staff are the heart of Storage Riddlesdown. Every member of our team is carefully trained in safe lifting, secure packing, handling fragile items and working respectfully in customers homes and businesses. We ensure that our team understands both the technical skills of removals and storage, and the importance of clear communication and courtesy.
From the moment we arrive at a home off Mitchley Avenue or a business unit near the Purley Way, our staff work methodically and with attention to detail. We know that we are being trusted with personal possessions, family heirlooms and important business equipment, so we treat every item as if it were our own. Our team members are also familiar with local building layouts, estates and typical property styles in Riddlesdown, which helps them plan moves safely and efficiently.
Our Mission
The mission of Storage Riddlesdown is simple: to provide dependable, honest and eco conscious storage and removal services for the Riddlesdown community and surrounding area. We aim to make every move and storage experience as smooth and stress free as possible, whether a customer is moving between flats near the station or placing belongings into medium term storage while renovating a house near Riddlesdown Common.
We measure our success not only by how many moves we complete, but by the trust our customers place in us and the positive impact we have on the environment and local community. Our mission guides every decision we make, from the materials we use for packing to the partnerships we form with recycling organisations and community groups.
Eco Responsibility and Recycling Partnerships
Storage Riddlesdown is committed to reducing the environmental footprint of every move and clearance. Wherever possible, we use reusable protective covers, durable crates and responsibly sourced packing materials to cut down on single use plastics and unnecessary waste. We encourage customers to recycle and donate items they no longer need, and we help to coordinate this as part of our area removal service.
We regularly work with local charity shops and community groups across Riddlesdown, Purley and Sanderstead to redirect usable furniture, clothing and household items to people who can benefit from them. Materials that cannot be reused are separated and taken to licensed borough recycling facilities, ensuring that metals, plastics, wood and electrical items are processed correctly. By combining responsible storage with careful disposal and recycling, Storage Riddlesdown plays its part in protecting the green spaces and clean streets that make Riddlesdown such a desirable place to live, from Riddlesdown Common to nearby parks and playing fields.
