Port-proximate freight storage at Avonmouth. Flexible terms, heavy freight capable, and fully integrated with our container handling and logistics services.
Most warehousing in Bristol is built for retail or consumer goods. Ours is built for freight.
We handle heavy industrial cargo — steel coils, timber, polymer, machinery — with the equipment and expertise to manage it properly. Our Avonmouth facility sits right at the port, which means cargo can move from vessel to storage and back to port without unnecessary transit.
Storage works best when it is part of a wider logistics solution. At JD Services, it connects directly with our container devanning, stuffing, and onward freight services — giving you one point of contact across the full cargo journey.
Cargo Types Accepted
Our storage facility is based at Avonmouth — minutes from Avonmouth Docks and well-positioned for Royal Portbury Dock. No long haulage to get your cargo into storage or back out to port.
Short-term and medium-term storage available. We work around your supply chain requirements — no rigid minimum contracts for freight customers.
Our facility handles heavy and specialist cargo — steel coils, timber, bulk materials, and industrial equipment. Up to 16-tonne lift capacity on site.
Storage works alongside our container devanning, stuffing, and freight handling services. Cargo can arrive by container, be devanned on site, stored, and dispatched — all handled by one team.
When your cargo is ready to move, we coordinate onward delivery. Road freight, container movements, or direct to port — we handle the next step as well as the storage.
When vessel schedules, customs clearance, or delivery windows don't align, our port-side storage acts as a buffer — keeping your supply chain moving without the pressure.
Freight storage at Avonmouth fits into your supply chain at multiple points.
Container arrives at port, we devan it at our Avonmouth facility, and the cargo goes straight into storage. No secondary movement required.

Vessel delayed or vessel window missed? We hold cargo at Avonmouth until the next available departure, coordinating the rebook for you.
Cargo held pending customs clearance. We store it securely while clearance is processed, then coordinate onward delivery once released.
