20 Business Ideas You Can Run Using Easy Access Self Storage

20 Business Ideas You Can Run Using Easy Access Self Storage

1. E-Commerce / Online Retail

Store your stock and packing supplies for platforms like Shopify, Amazon, or your own website. Run fulfilment operations from your unit with flexible space and regular access.

2. eBay / Amazon Marketplace Seller

Operate a small reselling business from your storage unit with room for packaging materials, inventory racks, and product returns.

3. Etsy / Handmade Goods Creator

Keep your handmade products, craft tools, and seasonal stock safe and organised in one convenient place—great for pottery, candle making, jewellery, and more.

4. Furniture Flipping / Upcycling

Use your storage space to refurbish and store furniture before reselling. Great for DIYers who work on commission or run local delivery.

5. Vintage Clothes / Furniture Dealer

Keep your thrifted or curated stock away from home and ready to ship, photograph, or stage. Use storage to rotate seasonal inventory efficiently.

6. Tradesperson (Builder / Electrician / Plumber)

Securely store tools, job-specific equipment, and extra materials in a drive-up unit—ideal for trades with variable schedules and bulky kit.

7. Event / Wedding Planning Business

Store event props, decor, lighting, chair covers, signage, and more. Retrieve only what you need for each event, keeping your gear in top condition.

8. Party Equipment Hire

Run an inflatable hire, table/chair rental, or soft play business from storage. Store equipment safely between uses and access as needed.

9. Landscaping / Gardening Business

Store lawnmowers, trimmers, plant pots, compost, and specialist tools safely without using valuable space at home.

10. Photographer or Videographer

Use a unit to store lighting kits, props, stands, lenses, and even use the space as a backdrop-ready mini studio with mobile setups.

11. Subscription Box Seller

Store packaging, stock, and fulfilment supplies for monthly or quarterly subscription boxes. Organise efficiently and scale easily with demand.

12. Fitness Instructor / Mobile Gym

Store gym equipment, resistance bands, mats, weights, or pop-up tent gear for mobile bootcamps and PT sessions.

13. Pop-Up Shop Operator / Market Trader

Keep your stand equipment, stock, promotional banners, and card readers organised between events or seasonal market days.

14. Document Archiving / Record Storage

Ideal for accountants, legal professionals, or consultants storing client files or historic records. Our secure, dry storage keeps documents safe and in good order.

15. Mobile Car Wash / Detailing Business

Store pressure washers, buckets, steamers, and cleaning chemicals in one safe place to load and unload as needed for daily routes.

16. Stage Props / Theatre Companies

Use units to store costumes, props, lighting rigs, or even small set pieces between performances or while touring.

17. Beauty / Wellness Product Retailer

Ideal for sellers of skincare, haircare, or aromatherapy products needing a clean, organised, and climate-safe space for stock rotation and shipping.

18. Charity Organisation / Community Outreach

Store event materials, donation boxes, fundraising merchandise, or seasonal supplies between campaigns.

19. IT Refurb / Electronics Resale

Store refurbished laptops, cables, routers, or peripherals ready for resale or repair. Use shelves or ESD-safe packaging within your unit to stay organised.
