Our history

Lanes Storage and Removals Ltd began its journey in 1974 originally offering just storage in a warehouse in Launceston, Cornwall. Soon after this the addition of our first removal vehicle changed the direction of the company’s future and would mark the beginning of the service we are best known for, removals. The business quickly grew which led to the relocation of the depot to Truro, the same site we remain on today.

In 1990 the family were approached by the national group of family led removal companies – Britannia Movers. Becoming part of this co-operative gained us access to an in-house shipping division, larger scale corporate customers and most importantly the value of a like minded network of people across the UK. Joining Britannia signified the company trading as and becoming known best known as Britannia Lanes.

Recent years have seen us focusing on expanding our Self Storage facilities across the South West with the addition of sites in Falmouth, Hayle and St Austell with future plans for sites into Devon.

Great Falmouth location and the app was easy to use. It was a secure, user friendly and clean storage facility. The entire process - from booking to receiving my deposit - was seamless. I highly recommend.

I used Britannia in Falmouth to store my daughters belongings as she moved from student accommodation to a rented flat. The service was seamless and I loved the automation though the app. I would thoroughly recommend Britannia for storage - first class!

Brilliant storage facility. Everything is clean and new and easy to access. Was able to pick a bigger unit when I arrived and decided I needed more space- all remotely! There are trolleys available to use. A great service and would use again.
