Our storage yard is the same site our recovery trucks work from, so someone is always about. Customers in Shirley, Croydon use it for accident vehicles awaiting an insurance decision, project cars, seasonal vehicles and trade stock.

Parking in Shirley, Croydon 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, 12.2 miles away.

Secure Vehicle Storage for Shirley, Croydon — 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 Shirley, Croydon?

Shirley, Croydon is about 12.2 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 Wickham Road (A232) and Shirley 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 CR0?

Yes — every street in CR0, around the clock, including nights, weekends and bank holidays. We also cover the neighbouring areas of Addiscombe, Addington, West Wickham and Elmers End, 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 East Croydon station — can you help?

Yes. Station car parks are one of the most common places we are called to in Shirley, Croydon, 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 Wickham Road — 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 Shirley, Croydon?

Yes. We work 24 hours a day, 365 days a year across Shirley, Croydon, Christmas Day and bank holidays included. A real person answers 07961 100260 — no call centre and no automated menu.

Customer reviews

What our customers say

“Had an old car sitting on the drive for years. They quoted a fair price, collected it free, and sorted the DVLA paperwork so I did not have to think about it again.”

Lorraine H.
Crayford

“Broke down on the A2 at eleven at night with two children in the back. They were with us in under half an hour and had us home before midnight. Calm, kind and exactly the price they quoted on the phone.”

Sarah M.
Bexleyheath

“Put petrol in a diesel at the services. Rang them in a panic, they told me not to start the engine, sorted it and I was away in just over an hour. Sensible people who clearly know what they are doing.”
