Welcome (back) to Stockyard North.

And what a few years it has been!

To say it has been a challenging twelve months for the film and TV industry would be putting it mildly. Therefore, as the industry starts gathering steam once again, we want to use the opportunity to introduce (and re-introduce!) ourselves.

So here it goes….

We are Stockyard North. The largest prop house outside of London, and as a result we have a vast array of props, set dressing, and furniture for hire. We stock everything from mid-century modern furniture to prison cell doors. As well as practical vintage lighting and unique smalls.

Our warehouse is home to a myriad of styles to suit any set, production, photoshoot, or event. No project is too big or too small and we enjoy working alongside you to curate orders to fit all budgets.

So whether you are a student wanting that hero prop for your final year film, or a member of a busy Art Department on the next big police drama – we have got you covered.

 

 

How we work

In short – we will work around your needs!

Whilst we encourage people to visit and hand-pick props themselves, we understand that isn’t always possible. As a result, we have a flexible approach and our experienced team can assist with orders via email and phone.

Take a look at our process below, and if there are any questions please contact us.

 

 

It’s not just about the props

We may be known for prop hire but we also offer a handful of complimentary services for your production needs.

Our art department supplies store is always full to the brim of SFX sprays, specialist tapes, adhesives and so much more. We also welcome requests – if we don’t have it in stock we will do our best to source it for you.

Stockyard has been offering scenery salvage and recycling for many years and has a dedicated team who are always available to offer advice, quotes, and assistance with logistics. In an industry that is often wasteful, we are proud of our services in this area.

As a trusted set storage supplier, we can offer bespoke storage needs at our Trafford Park warehouse. This area of our business is often highly sought after however, our team will always do our best to accommodate everyone looking for a personal, reliable, and high-quality storage solution for their production.

 

What are you waiting for?

We are incredibly proud to be a trusted part of the industry in the North West and we pride ourselves on our reliability, professionalism, and passion. As a result, we have an impressive and ever-growing client base and look forward to working on all projects, both big and small.
