Removals and Storage in Brighton
Need removals and storage in Brighton, all from one team? We collect, we store, we deliver when you're ready. Bearded Bros has been moving Brighton families and businesses since 2013, and we run our own self-storage facility on Springfield Road, a five-minute walk from London Road station.
Over 10,000 moves in the last five years have taught us that the tricky part of a house move is rarely the lift itself. It's the gap: the days or weeks between leaving one property and being handed the keys to the next. Chains collapse. Completion dates shift. Renovations run over. When that happens, goods need somewhere safe to go.
Because we run our own storage, we can handle the whole sequence without a handover. We load your belongings on collection day, take them straight to our Brighton depot or our crated facility in Newhaven, and deliver them directly into your new property when you're ready. Your things are loaded once and unloaded once. There's no second removal company, no self-storage unit you drive to yourself, and no reloading at an intermediate depot. That is the practical difference between a removals company with storage and a removals company that is its own storage operation.
If you only need one half of this, our removals and storage pages break each service down in full.
When removals and storage go together
The gap between selling and completing is the most common trigger. Your buyer is ready, your new place is not, and there is a window of days or weeks where your belongings need to be somewhere. We bridge it: load on your move-out date, store at Springfield Road or Newhaven, deliver on your completion day.
Downsizing from a four-bed to a two-bed means the furniture does not all fit on day one. We move what goes in and store what does not, so you can make the call on each piece over the following weeks rather than on the day.
Renovations push completion back or make rooms temporarily unliveable. We take everything off-site, hold it safely, and bring it back room by room as the work finishes.
Letting the flat before moving back, working away for a few months, or heading overseas: we empty the property, store everything, and return it when you're back.
If your situation doesn't fit neatly into those four, give us a call. We've handled some unusual ones.
The handling advantage
Most customers who need storage during a move rent a self-storage unit themselves. That means two separate removals: one into the unit and one out again. You also need to organise access, carry things from the van into the unit, and then do the second load yourself or book a second company.
We do it differently. Our removal crew loads your belongings from your home directly into our van. Those same belongings go into one of our containers at Springfield Road or into a crate at Newhaven, sealed and inventoried. When you're ready, our crew delivers them from storage into your new place. One team, one quote, one set of hands on your things.
That matters most on a fragile or high-value move, where every additional handling stage adds risk. It also matters on a tight timeline, where coordinating two companies and two sets of keys is one more thing that can go wrong.
Our two storage options
We run two products and we'll match you to the one that fits your situation.
Container self-storage at our Brighton site (146-148 Springfield Road, BN1 6DG, near London Road station) is the right call for shorter gaps where you want regular access. Full containers are around 150 sq ft, half containers around 75 sq ft. You can visit on weekdays plus Saturday mornings. The site is fenced, gated and on 24/7 CCTV.
Crated storage at our Newhaven facility is the better option for longer stays where you don't need to drop in every week. Each crate holds around 250 cu ft of belongings. It's sealed at the depot and stays sealed until we deliver it to your new address. Access is by appointment.
Not sure which suits you? Tell us how long you expect to store and how often you'll want access, and we'll point you at the right option.
