Delivery to Guildford
54.1 miles out, so the quote adds mileage
Every quote starts with the same steel unit and the same two-person team from our depot in Slip End, Luton. What changes from town to town is the transport line, and for Guildford it looks like this.
About 54.1 road miles from Luton, so the quote adds the mileage beyond 30 miles at £2 + VAT per mile each way: roughly £50 + VAT each way for Guildford, once for delivery and once for collection. That figure is an estimate based on the typical road distance to the town centre; the exact amount is worked out from your postcode when you get a quote.

Quote the 2 × 8 mWhere we can put it
Drives, gardens, yards and sites
The same rules apply in every town we cover. If the panels can be carried in and the ground is firm, the unit can go there.
- The route in must be free of low branches, narrow gates and tight turns. No cranes, HGVs or HIABs: the panels come through by hand.
- The unit is temporary and not fixed down, so planning permission is not usually needed. Check with the local planning authority for a listed property or a conservation area, or if it is staying long term.
- Not sure your spot will work? Tell us about the access when you enquire and we will confirm it before anything is booked.
How it works
Delivered, assembled, collected
Give us about 7 days' notice, and our team is in Guildford roughly 62 minutes after leaving the depot.
Delivered by van
The panels arrive flat-packed on our Luton van, so tight streets, side passages and back gardens are not a problem.
- No cranes, no HGVs, no HIABs
- Minimum 2,150 mm height clearance on the route in
- Weekday installations, Saturdays by appointment
Assembled by hand, on site
Our team builds the unit in the agreed spot on a firm, reasonably level surface. No permanent fixings, and planning permission is not usually needed.
- Driveways, patios, gardens, yards and sites
- Two built-in deadlocks on the door
- Once loaded, the unit stays where it was built
Used, then collected
Keep it for four weeks or a lot longer. When you have finished and the unit is empty, we come back, dismantle it and take it away.
- Give us 7 working days' notice to off-hire
- Extend at any time, no fixed end date
- Nothing left behind on your property
We deliver and assemble the unit. We do not transport or handle your belongings, so you load it at your own pace and keep the keys.

Questions
Questions about storage in Guildford
Is Guildford within the 30-mile delivery band?
No. Guildford is about 54.1 road miles from our depot in Luton, so the quote adds £2 + VAT for every mile beyond 30, each way. For a typical Guildford address that is roughly £50 + VAT for delivery and the same again for collection. The exact figure is worked out from your postcode.
How long does delivery to Guildford take from Luton?
The drive is about 62 minutes (54.1 road miles). We usually need 7 days' notice to book the installation, and can sometimes work at shorter notice subject to availability. Installations run 9 am to 4 pm Monday to Friday, and 9 am to 3 pm on Saturdays by appointment.

What does a storage unit cost in Guildford?
Hire starts at £35 + VAT per week for the 2 × 2 m unit, billed every four weeks with a minimum hire of 4 weeks. Installation is from £120 + VAT and collection the same, plus the mileage beyond 30 miles at £2 + VAT per mile each way.

Can you install on a Guildford driveway or in a garden?
Yes, in most cases. Driveways are the most common spot, and rear gardens work if there is a route in with at least 2,150 mm of height clearance and a firm, reasonably level surface at the end of it. The unit is built by hand from flat-packed panels, so a side passage or a gate is not a problem. It is temporary and not fixed down, so planning permission is not usually needed.
