Why do I need deed storage in London?

You could leave all property deeds within your office in both physical and digital form, but this unfortunately puts you at great risk. The information held on title deeds is valuable, and should it end up in the wrong hands, both your businesses and the homeowners whose deeds you hold could fall victim to a host of crimes.

Perhaps more commonly, when property deeds are kept in an office, it becomes easier to lose them. With such an array of files and an ever-decreasing amount of space available, it soon becomes hard to manage. Utilising a storage facility like ours alleviates this. Your items are catalogued, kept together, and can be retrieved when required. This means your office becomes less cluttered, your client data is kept safe, and you can work without the fear of struggling to locate the information.

Damage prevention

An office is a busy place. This makes it so much easier for documents to end up not only lost but damaged, too. Whilst not all damage is a huge problem, should property deeds become damaged beyond a certain point, they’ll need replacing. This can be tricky – depending on the age of the house, it’s sometimes impossible. This then makes it incredibly difficult for the owner to sell in future.

Opting for property deeds storage with Stockroom London eliminates this risk. With each item carefully catalogued, you’ll know exactly what items are in your deed storage and which items aren’t.

Theft and loss prevention

We’ve touched upon this already, but it is perhaps the most important reason solicitors and mortgage lenders consider secure long-term property deeds storage. Title deeds are more than one document; they consist of many, and can contain information such as transfers of ownership, mortgage agreements and property descriptions. To a thief, this is valuable information that could be used as part of identity fraud or even to help plan break-ins.

Reducing the risk of such vast amounts of data being compromised can only be done by storing it in a specialist storage facility. Digital files, for example, can be transferred to LTO tape, where they are encrypted and stored securely, making it impossible for them to fall into the wrong hands.

Reassurance

If you have vast files of property documents and other legal information, or even several hard drives filled with data, you always have the concern that the data could go missing, be tampered with or become damaged.

Having these files moved to a suitable storage facility removes this concern, as every item is now secure and available for retrieval as and when you need it. With the detailed cataloguing too, there isn’t any need to rifle through file after file hunting something down. Instead, a quick search of your inventory will help you find what you need, when you need it.

House deeds storage with Stockroom London: The process

We keep things simple at Stockroom London; complicated processes only slow things down and cause delays. Therefore, we have refined our storage of house deeds process and condensed this into easy-to-follow steps:

Enquire. Give us a call or complete our online enquiry form, and let us know what level of deed storage you may need. Whether it’s one box, several boxes or maybe a pallet, we’ll then discuss storage options and durations with you before organising a date for your storage with us to begin. Depending on how much you need to be stored, we can potentially organise the collection of your items, too
Collection and drop-off. If we are collecting your items, we’ll arrive on a pre-determined date and load our vehicle with the deeds for storage, then transport them in our tracked vehicles to our storage facility. If you are dropping the deeds off to us, we’ll organise a date and time, then do all the heavy lifting for you as we move them into the storage facility
Book the items in. Once we receive the deeds you wish to store, we catalogue them and store them in your own dedicated space within the facility
Once your storage period is over, we can return the items to you, or if you prefer, you are welcome to collect them yourself

If at any time during your storage period you wish to retrieve any property deeds in storage, simply let us know. With advance notice, we can organise this and adjust your inventory accordingly.

Compliance

With such sensitive data being held on them, title deeds require suitable storage to avoid them becoming a theft risk. Title deeds storage with Stockroom London achieves this. With ISO 9001 certification (the industry standard for establishing and maintaining a quality management system), full UK GDPR compliance and required safety protocols used throughout the business, you can rest assured that we always protect your information.

Easy retrieval

Property is a fast-moving industry at times, and changes to deeds can be frequent. This is why we fully catalogue all boxes in storage – that way, should you need access to them, you can easily do so. Simply let us know what you need in advance, then we will facilitate this and adjust your inventory accordingly.

Free collection

If you are located in London, we can collect your items for deed storage in London, free of charge. This does depend on the quantity of items and our availability, so please feel free to ask when you enquire. Of course, you are welcome to deliver your items to us if you prefer.

Physical and digital storage

Title deeds are largely digital and held with the Land Registry nowadays; however, older title deeds tend to be on paper. We provide storage options for both paper documents and digital files. Where you have items on hard drives, we can transfer them to encrypted and highly secure LTO tapes. This not only reduces the risk of a digital data breach, but also ensures the long-term protection of your files.

For physical documents kept on paper and in files, we’ll provide you with robust storage boxes for property deeds storage. We then move these boxes into your dedicated space within our facility.

Safe disposal

Should items no longer be needed for deeds storage, you can request their disposal. We offer a secure shredding service that meets the highest standards and ensures there is no risk of valuable information being stolen.
