Our unique and flexible Lock 'n' Leave facility is the ideal way to store virtually any size of item. Our secure, custom-built self-storage units located in Aberdeen are modern, self-contained and allow you to maximise space at home or work by storing belongings you don't have room for but can't throw away. The self-storage rooms range from 100-200 square feet and are available for short or long-term lease. The minimum hire period is four weeks and our units are available at a variety of value-for-money prices.
As you would expect, we work to internationally-recognised standards, including ISO 9001 and FIDI FAIM - but we aim to exceed your expectations with the extra care and attention to detail that single us out as the removal company of choice for home owners, companies and fine art collectors across the globe. Shore Porters understands how important it is to get things right on the day so that your treasured possessions arrive safely and securely, in the right place, at the right time, with the minimum of fuss.
From price estimation and project planning through to packing, storing and the successful delivery of goods, our experienced team of industry experts will help guide you through your move every step of the way. From moves within existing premises and small office relocations to complex multi-site, multi-building moves, we can cater for all. The most successful moves are achieved through partnership and trust. We will work with you to gain a full understanding of your requirements before any items begin to move.
Your belongings are packed at your home in specially-designed storage containers, which are secured and transferred to our store in Aberdeen until you require them. These containers are, of course, clean, dry and secure, and customers are charged per container per week. Our vehicle comes to your home, removes the items for storage and returns to our dedicated furniture depository, where your consignment is stacked away safely and securely, dust-sheeted and name-tagged. The cost is based on what you store and how long you choose to store it making it cost effective for bulky or oversized items such as large sofas, display cabinet, cars, caravans, trailers, boats, etc.
Whether you're planning on moving to, or from, France, Germany, Spain - or indeed any European country - our international department has the removals know-how to ensure your goods are transported to your new home safely, securely and on time. Our European moving service can be tailored specifically to an individual's requirement; whether it is a full move, part move, a move into temporary accommodation, we can do it all. All our European moves are co-ordinated from our Aberdeen headquarters by our experienced and talented team who have the expert insight into the latest rules and legislation, allowing your move to be as efficient and stress-free as possible.
