Rotherham Self Store

Appleyards Removals was established in the late 1800's in Conisbrough by the great, great grandfather of the current directors, Harry and John Appleyard who took over the business in 1976. In 1981 we built the first purpose built warehouse in Rotherham and subsequently developed our self storage and document storage sections thereafter. In the same year we were asked to join Britannia Movers International, making us one of the first of the forty-one current members of the Britannia co-operative.

Britannia Appleyards recommends a visit from one of our surveyors for all moves to assess the volume of goods you want to move, packing requirements and answer any questions that you may have, our aim is to make you as comfortable as possible with every aspect of your move and help you prepare for your moving day. Whether you are house hunting or waiting to move to your new home, Appleyards have a solution waiting to suit your needs.

Below are the sizes and dimensions of the most commonly used containers to ship household goods and personal effects. It is worth remembering that the Cubic Capacity stated is the maximum, when loading household goods and personal effects allow 10% reduction in capacity. When planning an international move, most of our customers are keen to know how long it will take the consignment to reach its destination. Transit times are typical however shipping lines do alter schedules from time to time without prior notice.
