Student Storage at St George's - Year-Round Collection for Medical and Clinical Students in SW17
St George’s, University of London is the United Kingdom’s only university dedicated entirely to medical and health sciences education and research. It is based on the grounds of St George’s Hospital in Tooting, south-west London (SW17). Every student at St George’s is studying medicine, nursing, physiotherapy, paramedic science, healthcare science, biomedical science or a related health profession. The campus and accommodation, Hunter Wing Halls and private student houses in the SW17 area, are concentrated around Cranmer Terrace and the surrounding Tooting streets.
St George’s is approximately 23 miles from our Grays, Essex storage facility via the A24 and is one of the closer south London university campuses to us. Our collection team covers SW17, SW12, SW16 and surrounding south London postcodes Monday to Sunday throughout the year. Because St George’s is a clinical university, we do not restrict collections to May and June. We collect year-round to fit the specific schedule of each student, and most bookings receive a confirmed collection date within 24 to 48 hours.
Unlike every other university in our London cluster, St George’s has no standard undergraduate academic calendar in the conventional sense. All students are on clinical or health science programmes with placement years, hospital attachments, OSCE examinations and clinical skills assessments that dictate their schedule. A first-year medicine student may have a very different vacate date to a fourth-year clinical student, a nursing student on a Trust placement or a physiotherapy student finishing a hospital rotation. When you book, give your coordinator your expected vacate date and programme year and they will confirm a collection date that works around your clinical schedule.
St George’s has a significant international medical student intake with students from across Europe, the Middle East, Asia and the Americas coming to train at one of the UK’s most respected medical schools. For international students finishing their degree and returning home, we collect from your Hunter Wing Halls or SW17 student house, store everything in our Essex facility and ship door-to-door to your home address worldwide. We handle customs documentation and your coordinator manages the full process.

UK delivery and international shipping
Getting Your Belongings Back - Delivery, Shipping and Returns
When you are ready for your belongings back, your coordinator arranges delivery to your next address. SW17 and south London postcodes are typically reached the next working day from our Grays facility. For international students returning home, we ship door-to-door to any country with customs documentation included. Pay-as-you-go storage is available for students uncertain about their return date during a clinical year.
Going Back to University Next Year?
This is the most common reason students use our service and it is the simplest delivery to arrange. When your new halls or student house is ready for you to move in, contact your move coordinator with your new address and your preferred delivery date and we will bring everything back to you. It does not matter if your new address is different from where we collected. If you were in student halls last year and are moving into a private house this year, we deliver to the new address without any issue. We recommend giving us at least one week’s notice for UK deliveries so we can confirm your slot, though we can often accommodate shorter notice if needed. A lot of returning students book their storage at the end of one year and have everything delivered straight to their new address at the start of the next, meaning they never need to carry anything themselves between years.
Moving to a New City or Town After Graduating?
If you are staying in the UK but heading somewhere new after graduation, we deliver your stored belongings directly to your new address. Whether you are starting a graduate job in Manchester, moving back to your family home in Cornwall or beginning a new chapter in a city you have never lived in before, we deliver from our Essex facility to any UK postcode. Distance is not a factor and you do not need to be in London or the South East to receive your delivery. Contact your move coordinator with your delivery postcode and we will confirm timing and cost within one working day.
One Point of Contact for Your Entire Move
One person handles all of the organisation for your move including collection, packing if needed, documentation, freight booking and delivery updates. There are no call centres and no being passed between departments. Your move coordinator’s details are confirmed when you book and they remain your single point of contact from collection through to delivery, whether that is around the corner or on the other side of the world.

St George's University London Student Storage - Frequently Asked Questions
How does student storage with collection work?
You book your storage unit online, choose the size you need and select a collection date. Our own team arrives at your address on the agreed day, whether that is a university managed hall of residence, a private student house or a shared flat. One hour of loading time is included in all packages, and our team will load everything into the vehicle for you so there is no heavy lifting involved. Your belongings are then transported directly to our secure, CCTV monitored and alarmed facility in Grays, Essex, where they are stored for the duration of your package. When you are ready to have your belongings back, you contact your move coordinator and we arrange delivery to any UK address or internationally. The entire process from booking to collection can be arranged within 48 hours in most cases.
How much does student storage cost?
Our summer packages run for 16 weeks from May to September and include collection from your door. A small student room package covering 15 sq ft costs £249 for three months, which works out at £15.56 per week. A large student room package covering 35 sq ft costs £399, equivalent to £24.94 per week. A full one-bedroom flat package at 70 sq ft costs £549, and a two-bedroom or house share package at 105 sq ft costs £699. All prices include collection from your door at the address you provide. After the initial three months, your storage continues at the same lower package rate rather than the standard pay as you go rate, so there is no price jump if you need to store for longer.
Is student storage with collection cheaper than renting a self-storage unit separately?
Yes. When you add up three months of standard pay as you go self-storage plus a separate collection service, the total cost is consistently higher than our packages. For a small student room, the comparable cost without our package is around £345, meaning our package saves you £96. For a large student room the saving is £138, for a one-bedroom flat it is £204 and for a house share it is £275. The saving exists because we include collection in the package price rather than charging it separately. We do this because the whole point of student storage is that you should not need to organise a van or make multiple trips to a storage unit at the end of term.
I am a St George's medical or clinical student - can you collect outside June given my placement schedule?
Yes, and for St George’s students this is not an edge case, it is the standard situation. St George’s, University of London is the UK’s only dedicated medical university and every student is on a clinical or health science programme. Clinical years, hospital placements, OSCE examinations and Trust attachments mean vacate dates vary significantly across the student body. We collect year-round and not only in May and June. Tell us your programme, your year of study and your expected vacate date when you book and your coordinator will confirm a collection date that works around your clinical schedule. We cover SW17 and surrounding south London postcodes Monday to Sunday, 365 days a year. Pay-as-you-go storage is also available if you need full flexibility on start and end dates.
Do you collect from Hunter Wing Halls on the St George's Hospital site in Tooting?
Yes, Hunter Wing Halls on Cranmer Terrace in Tooting (SW17) is our primary St George’s collection address. The halls are on the St George’s Hospital campus, which has specific vehicle access arrangements and we will confirm the loading point and timing with you before collection day. We also collect from private student houses across SW17, SW12 and the wider Tooting and Balham area. Tooting is approximately 23 miles from our Grays facility via the A24, making SW17 one of the closer south London university locations to us. Many St George’s students choose pay-as-you-go storage if they are mid-clinical year and uncertain about their exact vacate date which gives full flexibility to cancel with short notice if your schedule changes.
Do I need to be present when you collect?
You or a trusted representative should be at your address at the agreed collection time. This allows our team to confirm your items, work through the loading efficiently and complete any paperwork with you before they leave. One hour of loading time is included in all packages. If your building has specific access requirements such as a porter lodge, a key safe, a loading bay booking system or parking permit arrangements, please let your move coordinator know in advance when you confirm your collection date. Our team are experienced with university halls and student accommodation across all the areas we serve, so most access situations are straightforward with a little advance notice.
What is the difference between self storage and collection and delivery storage?
Self storage means you transport your belongings to our facility yourself and can access them during our opening hours. Collection and delivery storage means we collect your belongings from your address, store them in our facility and deliver them back when you need them. You do not visit the facility at all. For most students, collection and delivery storage is the right choice because it removes the need to hire a van, borrow a car or make multiple journeys at the end of term. Our summer packages use the collection and delivery model. We also offer indoor self storage units at our Grays, Essex facility for students who prefer drive-up access or who need to retrieve items during the summer.
How far in advance should I book my student storage collection?
We can usually arrange collection within 48 hours of booking, but for summer storage we recommend booking as early as possible. Collections in May and June are our busiest period and popular dates fill quickly, particularly around end-of-term weeks at larger universities. Booking two to three weeks in advance gives you the best choice of collection dates and avoids the situation where your preferred date is already taken. If you are in a rush, contact us directly via WhatsApp or phone and we will do everything we can to accommodate a short notice collection.
Are my belongings insured while they are in storage?
Your belongings are held in our own CCTV monitored, alarmed and secure facility in Grays, Essex. We recommend that you check your own contents insurance policy, as many policies cover belongings in storage as standard or for a small additional premium. Some student bank accounts and university accommodation packages also include contents cover that extends to off-site storage. If you need specific storage insurance and your existing policy does not cover it, your move coordinator can advise on options when you book. Please do not assume coverage without checking your policy documents, as the terms vary between providers.
Can I access my belongings while they are in storage
Yes, with a minimum of 48 hours notice. Access is available Monday to Saturday during site hours. Message your move coordinator to arrange an access appointment. If you have booked our collection and delivery storage service, your belongings are held in our managed warehouse area. If you think you may need regular or frequent access during the summer, our drive-up self storage units at the same Grays facility may be a better option. Ask your move coordinator to explain the difference when you book.
How long can I store my belongings for?
Our summer packages cover three months from May to September as standard. After the initial three months, your storage continues automatically at the same lower package rate rather than switching to the standard pay as you go rate, so you are not penalised for storing a little longer. There is no fixed end date and no requirement to collect at a specific time. You simply contact your move coordinator when you are ready for delivery and we arrange it from there. Year-round storage at monthly rates is also available for students who need to store between academic years or for longer periods.
Can I cancel my booking?
Before collection takes place you can cancel and receive a full refund minus a £25 administration fee. After collection has taken place the package is non-refundable. After the initial 16-week package period, you can cancel ongoing storage with 7 days written notice at any time.
