Secure Vehicle Storage for Purley, Croydon
Our storage yard is the same site our recovery trucks work from, so someone is always about. Customers in Purley use it for accident vehicles awaiting an insurance decision, project cars, seasonal vehicles and trade stock.
Parking in Purley is tight and often permit-only, which makes it hard to keep a second car, a project or an accident-damaged vehicle. We collect it from you and store it securely at our gated commercial yard in Erith, 16 miles away.
We come to you in Purley
Our own truck does the collection in Purley, so there is no courier and no third party involved. Purley is about 16 miles from our yard in Erith, usually via Purley Cross (A23/A22/A235) or Brighton Road, so same-day and next-day collections are normally easy to arrange. The vehicle does not need to run — non-runners, no-key vehicles and flat tyres are all fine.

Local knowledge of Purley
We collect from anywhere in Purley — the street outside, a garage, or a car park near Purley Way retail parks — and bring the vehicle straight to our yard. Delivery back works the same way.
With 2 stations nearby — Purley and Purley Oaks — commuter car parks are a regular call-out here; tell us which one and whether it has a barrier.
If you do not know the street name, a landmark is just as good: Purley Way retail parks, Purley Leisure Centre and Purley Oaks, or the stations at Purley and Purley Oaks. A dropped pin from your phone works too.
Honest pricing for Purley
We do not work from a price list, because no two jobs are the same. The vehicle, the collection address, the destination and anything unusual about the job all change the work involved. Ring 07961 100260 with the details and we will give you one fixed price for Purley — no extras added on the day. We take card and bank transfer.

Secure Vehicle Storage for Purley — FAQs
How secure is your storage yard?
It is a gated commercial yard at Standard Wharf, Erith — the same site our recovery trucks work from, so there is usually someone about. It is not a field or a lock-up.
How quickly can you reach me in Purley?
Purley is about 16 miles from our yard at Standard Wharf, 189 Manor Road, Erith, so for an emergency we are usually 40 minutes to an hour, normally coming in via Purley Cross (A23/A22/A235) and Brighton Road. Traffic, the time of day and how many jobs are running all move that, so when you ring 07961 100260 we give you a real window for that moment rather than a best case.
Can you collect the car to put it into storage?
Yes. We collect from your address with our own truck and deliver it back when you need it. Non-runners are fine.
Do you cover all of CR8?
Yes — every street in CR8, around the clock, including nights, weekends and bank holidays. We also cover the neighbouring areas of Kenley, Coulsdon, Sanderstead and South Croydon, so if you are on a boundary it makes no difference.
How long can I store a vehicle?
From a few days — for example after an accident while your insurer decides — to months at a time. We charge by the week or the month.
My car won't start at Purley station — can you help?
Yes. Station car parks are one of the most common places we are called to in Purley, usually for a flat battery after the car has sat all day. Tell us which car park and roughly where you are parked. If it has a height barrier or a pay-on-exit gate, mention that too and we will send the right vehicle and sort the exit with you.
Can I get to my vehicle while it is stored?
Yes, by arrangement. Ring ahead and we will make sure it is accessible.
I have broken down on Purley Cross — what should I do?
That is a main road, so safety first: if the car can roll, get it to the kerb or into a side road, switch on your hazards, and wait somewhere safe away from the traffic — not in the car. Then ring 07961 100260. Red routes and bus lanes are enforced quickly, so we prioritise moving vehicles off them.
Do I need to tax or insure a stored car?
If it is off the road on private land you can declare it SORN, which means no tax is due. Many owners keep fire and theft cover — check with your insurer.
Are you open at night and at weekends in Purley?
Yes. We work 24 hours a day, 365 days a year across Purley, Christmas Day and bank holidays included. A real person answers 07961 100260 — no call centre and no automated menu.
