Long-Term Archiving Services

Prolonged storage for specialist materials that require a certain level of care.

Back to Heritage

Ideal for:

  • Physical document archival

  • Secure offsite storage

  • Climate controlled conditions

Commit to the right type of storage

Digitisation allows you to preserve heritage materials but what happens to the original items? We recommend storing them professionally in suitable conditions to ensure they are preserved and protected from damage. We work with a leading industry storage partner to bring this service to you.

/ The Benefits

Protect precious materials

The secure underground storage facilities are climate controlled with sub-zero cold storage for delicate documents, and provide additional protection from flood, vermin damage and UV fading.

Create extra space

Storing documents offsite makes way for additional room onsite, which can improve and enhance visitor services or ways of working.

/ How It Works

1 / Consult

Based on an honest and expert assessment of your document storage requirements, you will receive a customised solution and quote to review.

2 / Collect

If you have chosen to store your documents offsite after they have been scanned, we safely transport them using a tracked, unmarked van.

3 / Store

Upon arrival, your documents are carefully logged and transported to their designated storage area.

4 / Manage

Your documents can be accessed upon request and will remain in storage for the agreed length of time.
