Self Storage Canning Town E16
Canning Town grew up around the Royal Docks, and in a strange way it still does, the docks themselves are now home to ExCeL, a cable car, and thousands of new flats stacked along the waterfront where cargo ships used to unload. All that redevelopment is great for the skyline, but new-build flats rarely come with much storage: no loft, no garage, sometimes barely a cupboard.
That's where we come in. I Like To Move It Move It runs secure self storage across E16, with storage units Canning Town households and businesses can size up or down as needed, for as long as they need it, not just while they're between moves.
How Much Does Self Storage in Canning Town Cost?
A small locker starts at around £10 a week, with larger storage space Canning Town residents can size up to depending on what needs to fit in. This usually works out cheaper than paying for extra square footage in a new-build flat, or renting a garage that doesn't exist in the first place.
Between flats and need somewhere for furniture in the meantime? Clearing out before a move, or just short on space in a one-bed near the docks? Whatever's behind it, there's a unit sized to match, and every quote is confirmed before you book anything.

Must-See Canning Town Landmarks
Storage aside, Canning Town has plenty worth exploring beyond the building sites and new towers:
- ExCeL London: One of Europe's largest exhibition and convention centres, built on the old Royal Victoria Dock quayside. It hosts everything from Comic Con to international trade shows, right by Custom House station.
- IFS Cloud Cable Car: Formerly the Emirates Air Line, this cross-Thames cable car links the Royal Docks to Greenwich Peninsula, 90 metres up. It's still one of the few ways to see the O2, Canary Wharf, and the Thames Barrier all from the same vantage point.
- Thames Barrier Park: London's largest new riverside park in over 50 years when it opened in 2000, built on a former chemical works site. Its sunken "Green Dock" garden and fountain courtyard sit right alongside the Thames Barrier itself.
- Trinity Buoy Wharf & London's Only Lighthouse: A short walk from Canning Town station, this quirky creative quarter is built around London's one surviving lighthouse, used by Michael Faraday for optical experiments in the 1860s. It's open to visitors most weekends.
