How Can Self Storage Help Your Business Thrive?

19 August 2022 SQ Digital

There is an extensive list of reasons why your business may need some extra space. Perhaps you’re looking to relocate and need more room to breathe while you get ready to move, or maybe you work from home and have found that the lines between work and play have blurred. Whatever it is, it’s easy to let aspects of your business take over your life, but there is a simple solution guaranteed to take some pressure off; self storage.

So, today we’re exploring how our self storage facilities can help your business thrive. Whether you’re looking to expand or just need some extra space, we have just what you need at Kangaroo.

Does My Business Need Self Storage?

As experienced providers of high-standard business storage, we have dealt with company owners from a wide range of different fields. There are many businesses you can run from your storage unit, such as:

Online sellers. For example, if you run an eBay or Etsy business, you may need extra space to work or store your stock.
Event planning. This type of job requires incredible organisational skills. Our storage units provide you with a place to put everything you’ll need for any occasion, meaning you’ll know exactly where everything is no matter what the event requests are.
Contractor. As a contractor, you’ll likely have a lot of bulky and expensive equipment. House it all in a storage unit and come and collect what you need for your job and securely lock up everything else.
Charity. As a charity organiser, you will most likely need somewhere to house donations as well as sensitive and confidential information; our storage units allow you to do both.

In addition, self storage units are ideal for those looking to expand or relocate their business. The extra space gives you a chance to move business items such as stock or furniture and securely store them while you move into a new building. Whatever your business or organisation needs, there are ample reasons self storage can assist you.

Cost-effective Solutions

There is no one-size-fits-all price when it comes to our business storage facilities. We have an extensive range of unit sizes to suit all businesses so that you can choose the best fit and price for you. For example, if you’re looking for a secure place to keep important and confidential documents, our 1ft² mailbox may be best for you. Whereas, if you need to store an office block’s worth of furniture and items while you relocate, our 500ft²+ units may be a better option. We are happy to accommodate your needs, and if you find that you need to up or downsize for space or payment reasons, we can help you do so.

Our prices are incredibly competitive, yet we also offer fantastic discounts. For new customers, we offer an introductory price of 50% off for twelve weeks of storage, but this can differ from store to store, so speak to our team at your chosen store to find out more.

Decluttering and Organisation

If you started your business from home and are experiencing growth, moving into a storage unit is a great way to declutter your home from work-related items and get organised. You may not have a spare room available in your home that can provide you with the space you need, and our self storage facilities for businesses can offer just that.

Allow yourself to separate work life from home life and clear away your surplus stock from the kitchen table. With our business storage, you have all the room you need to store items, pack orders, and securely keep important and confidential business documents.

A Hub for Tools and Equipment

As mentioned, self storage units are great for contractors, as they provide a clean and secure environment to store tools and bulky, expensive equipment when it’s not in use. For example, if you run a plumbing company, you can house all the tools you and your staff need in our storage facilities and can come and collect whatever is needed whenever you need it.

As part of our promise to ensure we go above and beyond for our customers, we can also add shelving and lighting to your storage unit, so you can safely store and access the equipment during emergency call-outs.

Opportunity for Expansion

Utilising our business storage gives you a fantastic opportunity to expand. Suppose you have outgrown your current premises, whether your home or a business unit. This is a great indicator that your company is thriving. However, although this is exciting, it’s essential that you have the expansion under control because if not, you could become overwhelmed with surplus stock, documents, and other business items and things could get lost or damaged.

Move over to a self storage unit and grant yourself the space you need to assist your business in its growth.
