Enhance Your Business Storage: Benefits to an External Solutions

Business storage

Business storage benefits from self-storage in a range of ways that help boost your day-to-day. There are many ways that a business can often become cluttered or harder to manage, whether that be a long-established team or a recent start-up. Setting up effective practices can often include the method you use or set up your business materials, which self-storage units can enhance.

1 Big Self Storage offers personal and commercial storage solutions for Thurrock, within East Tilbury. Our local storage solution is located next to the Thames Industrial Park and is perfectly positioned for the Lower Thames Crossing currently being built. Our regular units range from 12 to 200 square feet, but businesses that require pallet storage, or larger space can also find an Asset Storage solution on our 4th floor.

Business Storage Benefits from an External Solution

Self-storage units provide a range of benefits for your business or your team. Business storage can often present challenges that don’t often appear until it becomes an overwhelming issue. To help your team get ahead of potential issues that can be resolved with our storage solutions, we have compiled some of the warning signs and potential problems that could occur. Here are some of the ways you can optimise your storage solution by utilising our units.

Stock Taking Over Workspace

As your business grows, it doesn’t take long for stock and parts to require larger quantities. Business storage for many teams involves having the stock right next to their workspace, which is common for start-up businesses. However, this can often hinder your team by creating an inefficient environment. Messy spaces can often affect your mental state and can also result in stress. Keep your space clear by using self-storage to store the majority or the worst of your space takers.

Organise in a Dedicated Area

Outsourcing your business storage allows you to dedicate the space to what your stock or materials require. This includes setting up racks to make the most of your cubed space, allowing everything to be arranged for an optimised system. Providing space specifically for your business needs also means that you don’t have to worry about sacrificing other areas to make room for everything you need to store.

Asset Storage For Larger Items

If your business involves larger items for stock or equipment that your team uses, you may require something larger that 200 square feet. Pallets can take up a significant amount of room, but they are also the best way to control larger stock or even large amounts of items. Our asset solution is perfect for business storage that needs an area to store various furniture and larger items all in a single space. Asset storage is also perfect for businesses that need to store palleted items, within 1000 square feet or larger.

Expand as You Grow

Our self-storage solution also grants the ability to increase to suit the demands of your business. As your business storage requires a larger space, it can be difficult to accomedate if you are simply using your office or home to take care of the surplus. Our storage solutions adapt to the space you need, which can be going from a 25 to a 75 square foot unit. Additionally, there is no additional cost for transferring, whether that be increasing or decreasing in size.
