Secure Vehicle Storage for Thornton Heath, Croydon
Parking in Thornton Heath 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, 13.2 miles away.
Our storage yard is the same site our recovery trucks work from, so someone is always about. Customers in Thornton Heath use it for accident vehicles awaiting an insurance decision, project cars, seasonal vehicles and trade stock.
We come to you in Thornton Heath
Collection is from your door anywhere in Thornton Heath — the driveway, the street outside, a garage or a car park. Thornton Heath is about 13.2 miles from our yard in Erith, usually via Brigstock Road or London Road (A23), 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.

Around Thornton Heath: roads, landmarks and stations
For Thornton Heath customers, the collection run to our yard usually goes via Brigstock Road. Non-runners, no-key vehicles and accident damage are all fine; we winch them on.
If you stop on London Road (the A23), it is a main road — get the vehicle to the kerb or a side street if it will roll, put the hazards on and wait somewhere safe, not in the car.
If you do not know the street name, a landmark is just as good: Selhurst Park, Thornton Heath Clock Tower and Grangewood Park, or the stations at Thornton Heath and Selhurst. A dropped pin from your phone works too.
What it costs for Thornton Heath
You will know the cost before we commit to anything. The vehicle, the collection address, the destination and anything unusual about the job all change the work involved. Once we have agreed a figure, that is what you pay — nothing is added afterwards. We take card and bank transfer.

Secure Vehicle Storage for Thornton Heath — 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 Thornton Heath?
Thornton Heath is about 13.2 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 Brigstock Road and London Road (A23). 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 CR7?
Yes — every street in CR7, around the clock, including nights, weekends and bank holidays. We also cover the neighbouring areas of Selhurst, South Norwood, Norbury and West 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 Thornton Heath station — can you help?
Yes. Station car parks are one of the most common places we are called to in Thornton Heath, 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 Brigstock Road — what should I do?
Put your hazards on, stay visible and ring 07961 100260. Give us the nearest house number or junction and we will tell you exactly where we will load. If the street is tightly parked we may winch the car out rather than reverse in, so it helps to know how much space there is.
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 Thornton Heath?
Yes. We work 24 hours a day, 365 days a year across Thornton Heath, Christmas Day and bank holidays included. A real person answers 07961 100260 — no call centre and no automated menu.
