Why self storage is perfect if you are self-employed

Are you self-employed and need storage space? A self storage unit is a great solution to keep your business and trade items safe and secure. Here are a few reasons why self storage is perfect if you are self-employed.

• Secure storage for stock and seasonal goods

One of the most common reasons why self-employed individuals need a self storage unit is to have a secure and accessible place to store their stock and/or tools. If you have expensive equipment then there are many security features and benefits from getting a self storage unit.

A unit can serve as a mini warehouse for you. It will be a far more cost-effective and secure option than taking on more rented commercial office and industrial space. This helps to free up valuable space if you are either working from home or have office or retail premises.

• Document storage

Another way to make good use of a self storage unit is for documents and archives. Storage units are perfect for document storage as they offer clean, dry and accessible storage space. Keep all of your confidential documents offsite in a safe location, giving you peace of mind. Racking and shelving can also be put in the unit to better organise your archives.

• Additional workspace

A storage unit can serve as an ideal ‘pack and despatch’ location, especially if you an online trader, eBay seller or similar. Indoor storage units are dry and well-lit to provide you with perfect offsite space to get the essential jobs done.

Regardless of the size of your business, there are many reasons why self storage is perfect if you are self-employed. Simply choose a size of unit that that best suits your needs and sign up.
