If your business is running out of space, you are faced with a choice. Move to bigger premises or find a storage solution which gives you the room you need to continue to expand and grow.
Self storage offers businesses flexibility as it can be used as a temporary measure or the size of the unit can be changed to reflect the current needs. In contrast, moving to a bigger premises is a long-term or permanent move, which brings with it a rise in outgoings and an increase in business rates.
Renting a self storage unit will not have an impact on the business rates a company pays and the space can be used for as long as it needs to be, even if this is only short-term or seasonal. Porterstore offers business self storage in Lancashire and Cumbria without tying clients into any fixed term contracts.
Businesses can pay for the length of time they require and they only need to give one week’s notice if their requirements change. It is also simple to switch to smaller or bigger units if and when needed.
There are a number of reasons businesses might want to use self-storage. Retailers may need more space for excess stock but not want something as large or permanent as renting a warehouse.
Another potential reason for needing business self storage is to store archives and documents in an off-site location. Porterstore has 24-hour CCTV monitoring its highly secure sites along with a state-of-the-art alarm system to give customers peace of mind that all their important paperwork is kept safe.
Self storage can also be useful to store seasonal items and furniture which do not need to be in use all the time. This may include exhibition stands used for trade shows or corporate events, Christmas decorations and equipment.
Renting a self storage unit can also help businesses who are in the process of moving offices or headquarters and need somewhere secure to store their belongings while the relocation is happening.
