Just wondered if anyone has any experience of this. We wre moving out of our house and staying with family for 6 weeks before moving into new house. I've started to look into storing the house contents, is it cheaper to hire a van and a self storage place or to pay a removal company to pack and store?
I have a couple of companies coming round to quite hug have no idea of approximate costs.

It'll almost certainly be cheaper to do it yourself, but massively easier for a removal company to do it if you have a normal amount of stuff.0

Depends how far your moving but i was quoted between £650-£1000 for a removal van for our move.
Instead we are hiring the biggest van we can find for £288 one way and dropping it at our destination, and a months storage will cost us £100 so much cheaper although more stressful I guess.0
