This facility only applies if you, in the Agreement regarding licence of storage space (the “Licence Agreement”), have instructed us to include the property you store in the Company’s insurance arrangements and have paid the appropriate fee. The licence of the storage space and your use of it remains subject to the terms of the Licence Agreement. Please read carefully clause 48 of the General Conditions to the Licence Agreement.
It is a condition of the Licence Agreement that all of the property you store is insured for its full replacement value (on a new for old basis) and that such cover is maintained at all times. Please note that irrespective of whether or not you instruct us to include the property you store within our company insurance arrangements our liability for actual physical loss of or damage to the property you store is limited by the terms of the Licence Agreement which forms part of our contract with you.
SUBJECT TO YOU GIVING US WRITTEN INSTRUCTIONS TO INCLUDE THE PROPERTY YOU STORE IN THE COMPANY’S INSURANCE ARRANGEMENTS, we will ensure that our insurance policy will cover physical loss or damage to the property which you store, as summarised below. Please note that as the policy is in our name you will have no independent right to make claims under our insurance policy. We undertake to forward any insurance payment from our insurers that relates to the property you store onto you, subject to such deductions which are provided for by the Licence Agreement. You may inspect the insurance policy at our office on request.
Total limit
In the event of a claim the most which could be recovered from our insurers shall be limited to the value which you have declared for the goods which you store, as declared to us on the Licence Agreement or elsewhere in writing. Whatever the value declared the amount that could be recovered shall in no circumstances exceed GBP 100,000 unless other arrangements are confirmed in writing by us.
Perils
The terms of the insurance which we will maintain shall be limited to claims for actual physical loss of or damage to your stored property caused by fire, lightning, explosion, earthquake, storm, flood, bursting &/or leaking pipes, ingress of water or other liquid substance, aircraft or articles dropped therefrom, moth, insect or vermin (in each case from an external cause), theft accompanied by forcible and violent entry to or exit from the building or Unit, riot, strike, civil commotion, malicious damage, and impact by vehicle or railway rolling stock. The policy will not respond to any other claims.
Under-declaration
The sum declared by you must at all times represent the full replacement value of the property which you store. If you fail to declare the full replacement value on the Licence Agreement or to us elsewhere in writing, then in the event of a claim we will only be entitled to recover from our Insurers the proportion of the loss as the declared value bears to the total replacement value of the property you stored. This will in turn reduce the amount which we are obliged to pay to you.
Basis of claims settlement
The settlement of any claim shall be by replacement, repair and/or compensation at our Insurer’s option. In the event of total loss or destruction of any item (other than household linen and clothing and documents) settlement of any claim shall be the cost of replacing the item as new provided that the item is substantially the same as but not better than the original when new.
Household linen and clothing
Where any claim includes loss of or damage to any item(s) of household linen and clothing, our Insurers will take into consideration the age, quality, degree of use and consequent market value of any such lost or damaged item(s).
Documents
Where any claim includes loss of or damage to documents the basis of settlement shall be the reasonable costs of reprinting and/or reasonable costs of reissue and/or reconstitution including, where applicable, fresh research or exploration to obtain essential information.
Pairs & sets
Where any items are part of a pair or of a set then our Insurers shall only pay for the actual items which are lost or damaged. No payment will be made by our Insurers for any items which are part of a pair or of a set and which are not lost or damaged.
Our insurer’s policy excess
Our Insurers will not pay the first GBP 100 of any claim under our policy.
Claims notification
If circumstances arise in respect of your goods which could give rise to a claim under our insurance then you must notify us, in writing, of those circumstances and whether you wish for us to make a claim on our insurance in respect of the goods in question. All circumstances which could give rise to a claim must be notified to us at the time of discovery of the loss or damage or at the time of removal of goods from the unit, whichever is the soonest. This will then allow us to notify our insurers. If prompt notification cannot be made to our insurers this may affect what is payable under our insurance. We remind you that we will not be liable to pay you anything in excess of what our insurers pay to us in respect of any claim.
In the event that a claim is made and we receive a payment from our insurers in respect of the same we shall be entitled to request that your rights be assigned to us and you shall be required to execute such an assignment as part of any settlement of the claim.

We exclude all liability in respect of: (a) loss or damage to Your business, if any, including consequential loss, lost profits or business interruption; (b) loss of or damage to Goods or any claim for return of the Storage Fees except where this results from Our negligence or breach of contract, in which case Our liability will be limited to the sum of £100 in total.

31 Subject to Clause 48 if applicable, We do not insure the Goods and it is a condition of this Agreement that the Goods remain adequately insured by You at all times for their Replacement Value (as set out on the Cover Sheet) while they are in storage. You warrant that such cover is in place, will not lapse and that the aggregate value of Goods in the Unit from time to time will not exceed the insured value. We do not give any advice concerning insurance cover given by any policy and You must make Your own judgment as to adequacy of cover even when arranged by Us. Inspection of any insurance documents provided by You to demonstrate cover does not mean We have approved the cover or confirmed it is sufficient.

You agree that We may take such action at any time even though We could have acted earlier.
- We shall not be considered to be in breach of this Agreement nor liable for any delay in performing or failure to perform any of Our obligations under this Agreement or any resulting loss or damage to Goods if such delay, failure, loss or damage results from events, circumstances or causes beyond Our reasonable control. Such circumstances include (but are not limited to) any act of God, riot, strike or lock-out, trade dispute or labour disturbance, accident, breakdown of plant or machinery, fire, flood, shortage of labour, materials or transport, electrical power failures, threat of or actual terrorism or environmental or health emergency or hazard or recommended restrictions, epidemic, pandemic, or entry into any unit including the Unit or the Facility by, or arrest or seizure or confiscation of Goods by, competent authorities. If this happens, We will not be responsible for failing to allow access to the Goods, Unit and/or the Facility for so long as the circumstances continue. We will try to minimise any effects arising from such circumstances.
