Self-storage can be of huge benefit to businesses of all sizes and types. Here are just a few ways how Portland Self Storage can help your business:

  1. Reduce Costs
    Renting a self-storage unit is generally cheaper than leasing any additional commercial space where extra space is required. Businesses can reduce their overheads and save on costs related to rent, utilities, and maintenance.
  2. Increase Office Space
    Businesses can free up valuable office space by storing any excess documents and equipment in one of our storage units. This can greatly improve the look and feel of a workspace and enhance productivity as areas will be more organised and decluttered, without having to worry about space constraints.
  3. Storage for Seasonal Items
    Retailers will find it useful to store seasonal stock and promotional materials in one of our storage units, as this will increase space for current stock that needs to be on display for your customers. The seasonal stock can then be retrieved from your storage unit when it is required to be back on sale in stores.
  4. Storing Event and Trade Show Materials
    Businesses can store trade show booths, promotional materials and event supplies in our storage units, making it easy to prepare for and attend events without cluttering the office. This is especially useful when such materials are only required a few times a year or even annually – with not having to worry about storing them all year when they are not in use.
  5. Temporary Storage for Relocation/Renovation
    We can help store your business items including furniture, stock, documents and other assets during office relocations, renovations, or expansions. This will offer an organised space to store these items until you need them again. 
  6. Offering Additional Space for Archiving and Record Keeping
    Self-storage units are ideal for archiving documents, tax records, and legal papers that are not needed on a daily basis but that must be kept for compliance purposes for the required amount of time. This is ideal to save office space for current files and documents as any old seldom-accessed documents can be placed in the storage unit for safe keeping.
  7. Improve Business Efficiency
    Improved organisation of stored items can lead to a much more reliable and efficient inventory control, which can result in reduced levels of loss or damage. Additional space offered by our storage units can help massively with this allowing effective storage by organising inventory systematically; making it easier to manage stock levels and quickly find items when needed.
  1. Offering Flexible Leasing Options
    Our storage facility offers month-to-month leases, allowing you to adjust your storage needs without any long-term commitments so you are not tied down to any lengthy storage contracts. This is helpful when it is not known how long additional storage will be required for. As businesses grow or experience fluctuations in inventory they can also easily increase or decrease their storage unit size according to their needs.
  2. Secure and Well-Protected Storage
    Our self-storage facility provides advanced security features such as CCTV surveillance, gated access to the site and high security padlocks on each unit. This ensures that business assets are well-protected.
  3. Easy to Access Site
    Our storage facility is conveniently located next to Asda in Handsworth, just off the Parkway and only a few minutes from Junction 33 of the M1. With the storage site being in a convenient location this allows quick and easy access to your belongings whenever you need access to them, enhancing operational efficiency.

These are just some of the ways in which we can help your business improve efficiency, reduce costs and have peace of mind that assets are securely stored and easily accessible. For a friendly chat about storage options please call us on 0114 400 0114. Or click here to go to our bookings page.
