What Type of Business Uses Self Storage?

What Type of Business Uses Self Storage?

Businesses often don’t consider the benefits of utilising self storage because they consider it used mostly by people moving home for storing furniture and personal belongings. We have lots of business customers and here is a sample of the type of business we help.

Online Traders

Oftentimes online traders start as small businesses running from the owner’s home. This comes with its own set of issues that storage can easily help. Once you’ve outgrown your home but are not ready to commit to expensive commercial premises consider our self storage units for your business.

Imagine using a clean, dry and accessible unit for housing stock, orders and returns. Utilise the unit as a stock room and an order packing station. Our online sellers typically are eBay, Amazon, Etsy traders and rejoice when they offload their stock into a unit and get their home back!

Tradespeople

If you have expensive tools that cannot be left in a vehicle overnight or dangerous tools that are unsafe to be left in your home storing them in a self storage unit is the perfect solution. Any excess materials can be stored and used on future jobs. The type of trade we help is plumbers, electricians, joiners, decorators and many more.

Party Planners and Venues

If you have large items for parties and venues that are not used all of the time use a storage unit for tables, chairs, decorations etc. Frees up space and gives you ample room to add to your party or event décor.

Professionals

Some professions are required to keep hard copy documents for legal reference or legislation. For example, we have accountants and law firms that utilise storage units for document archiving purposes. It’s amazing how much space these documents and folders take up. The fact they are used so infrequently means holding them securely off site is a perfect solution.
