Utilising self storage for business
As you know, self storage isn’t just a great option for domestic use. Increasing numbers of businesses use self storage for lots of different reasons. In fact, around 25% of our customers are businesses!
All sorts of businesses can utilise self storage in some way. Here are some of the most common uses.
Document storage
Self storage units are a great way to store your archived documents. Document retention rules mean you can have a mountain of paperwork and records you need to find a home for.
Free up space in your office and have access to your archived files whenever you need. All of our units are clean, dry and individually alarmed so your documents will be safe.
Import/Drop Shipping
Have your inventory delivered after clearing customs. Our units will allow you to buy and store in bulk. If your operation is smaller, you can use the storage space to ‘pick and pack’, our friendly managers can assist with deliveries if you need.
Tool/equipment storage
If you’re a tradesman, your tools are crucial to your trade. By keeping them in a self storage unit rather than your van or garage, you can rest assured that they are safe and secure. We know how costly replacing tools and equipment can be, remove the risk by storing it with us.
Startups and small businesses
Renting office space can be expensive, especially if you have lots of products to store, taking up valuable space. By keeping your bulk bought or created products in a storage unit, you can maximise the space you have. Also, if you’re starting a small business from home, self storage can prevent this taking over your whole house.
Our rental agreements are flexible, you can upgrade or downgrade your unit size to meet the changing needs of your business and most importantly, your products will be safe and secure in our facilities.
