Storage Liens Act 1973

At any time before goods are sold by virtue of this Act any person claiming any interest or rights of possession in the goods may pay the storer the amount necessary to satisfy the amount of the charges of the storer including the reasonable and necessary expenses incurred in serving notices, in publication of advertisements and in preparing for sale up to the time of payment.

The storer shall deliver the goods to the person making the payment if he or she is the person entitled to the possession of the goods on payment of the storer’s charges thereon, otherwise the storer shall retain possession of the goods according to the contract (express or implied) for the deposit of the goods.
