Car Storage St Albans
Equerry 55 offers secure indoor car storage for owners in St Albans. The private facility is based in Essex, reached on the M25, with collection and delivery available from St Albans and monthly plans from £250 plus VAT.
Secure indoor car storage for St Albans owners
St Albans is a difficult city to keep a second car in. The streets inside the conservation area are permit controlled and narrow, the Georgian and Victorian housing around Fishpool Street and Romeland predates the motor car entirely, and listed building consent rarely allows anyone to put up something better.
The newer developments have the opposite problem. An allocated bay is a rectangle of tarmac with a number painted on it, which is fine for a runabout and no place at all for a car you care about.
Equerry 55 is the alternative. A private indoor building where the air is managed, the car is covered and checked, and nobody but the people who look after it knows it is there.

“In the beginning I looked around and could not find quite the car I dreamed of, so I decided to build it myself.”
Same reason this exists. Nowhere kept cars the way we wanted our own kept, so we built it.
Classic, prestige and performance Car Storage St Albans
Equerry 55 stores classic cars, modern classics, prestige cars, performance cars, supercars, collector cars and rare cars with low mileage.

“The best Ferrari ever built is the next one.”
Fifty five percent relative humidity. Ten to twelve degrees through winter. Checked on a schedule and written down, so the next car is kept better than the last.
Classic Car Storage St Albans for long term care
An older car does not simply pause when you stop using it. Damp works into the trim and the underside, batteries drain, tyres take a set where they stand, and a small weep becomes a real leak by spring.
Equerry 55 offers classic car storage for St Albans owners over winter, over a season, or for years at a time. Cars are kept at the private indoor facility in Essex, with collection and delivery arranged from St Albans. The Keep adds regular checks and scheduled engine runs through a long stay.
Private Car Storage St Albans with collection and delivery
Equerry 55 provides private indoor car storage for owners in St Albans and the surrounding area. The facility itself is in Essex, not in St Albans, and the M25 connects the two directly.
Owners come to us from across the district, including Harpenden, Wheathampstead, Redbourn, Sandridge, London Colney, Bricket Wood, Park Street, Chiswell Green, Marshalswick, Fleetville, Radlett and Colney Heath.
Cars can be collected from a home, a private car park, a dealer or a specialist garage, and returned to St Albans when you want them back.
Storing outside the city solves the part of the problem St Albans cannot. There is no permit zone, no conservation area restriction, no exposed driveway and no allocated bay with someone else reversing next to it.
The facility remains in the same Essex location with access through the M25, M11 and A406. All visits are by appointment and the full address is shared with approved clients.

“Small things make perfection, but perfection is no small thing.”
Batteries sulphate. Tyres flat-spot. Fluids draw water and brakes bind. None of it is dramatic and all of it is expensive.
