One of the main issues that businesses can face is storage space. If your business handles high levels of stock inventory, equipment or supplies then you need sufficient space to make it work for you. Some businesses quickly outgrow their warehouse space or need to move premises to save costs. One way to solve this problem is to consider the benefits of off-site storage for your business.
Below are some of the main benefits of off-site storage for your business.
Off-site storage solutions are an excellent way to store your stock and other business-related items whilst keeping costs low. In particular, self storage rates are much more cost effective than maintaining your own business premises. The chances are that you could well be paying expensive rents on warehouse space plus high maintenance and utilities costs. Self storage units can be far more cost effective due to the lower rental costs, fewer overheads and greater flexibility they offer.
Business premises such as office and warehouse space usually requires heavy upfront commitment from the occupier. This usually involves the signing of a long-term lease and can include full maintenance responsibilities of the premises on top. With self storage in particular, there are no long-term lease commitments required. It is a simple license agreement to store for as long or as short as you like.
The beauty of self storage is that you can rent as much space as you require to suit your businesses ever changing needs. With a wide range of unit sizes provided, this gives your business so much more flexibility to take on more space as and when required.
It is important for businesses to become more competitive and establish a trusted reputation in today’s competitive marketplace. Gaining better control of your inventory and stock levels can give a business less of a headache and allow for more time to focus on other added-value services that can set them apart from the rest.
Off-site storage may provide a competitive advantage for organisations that lack sufficient storage space or are wanting to cut operational expenses. Self storage can be the solution that could save your company time and money.
