Storage insurance

Options
Hi all,


Not sure if this is the right forum really, we are moving out of our rented flat and into our first home. There's going to be a 4 week delay on getting into our new place where we'll need to put our furniture into storage. Can anyone recommend an insurance company that will cover storage please? Thanks!

  • The storage company will normally offer insurance on a monthly basis.

    The storage company will offer insurance, but some people complain that it is extortionately expensive.

    If you Google 'Self Storage Insurance' a few firms will come up. (Assuming you mean Self Storage.)

    edddy's assumption raises a point - is it indeed self storage, or is it storage provided by a removal company? If it's the latter I'm not sure whether you will have a choice about taking their insurance (I have done it myself but it was over 10 years and I can't remember if there was an option).
