Storage Compass maintains a structured database of UK self-storage facilities and development activity. Figures on this page are generated from records associated with London in the Storage Compass database and may change as new facilities and planning records are identified.
This market covers the London council areas listed above, so every figure describes the same area. Floorspace is not reported: the stored figures mix measured building footprints with published floor areas, which are not the same measurement. Operator counts include only facilities linked to an identified company. Read the full methodology.
