Small Business Solutions With Self Storage

Many people associate self storage for personal use; moving, collectors, downsizing, but self-storage has so much more to offer for businesses in particular.

Self storage for small business and commercial use is ideal for storing any medical files, tools, materials, business records, equipment, supplies, extra retail inventory, and so much more. Self storage is perfect for businesses that are going through a transition phase, decluttering the space, so everyone has room to work, or trying to avoid the high cost of renting commercial space for storage. Did you know that self storage is about 60% cheaper than renting a commercial space? The most common businesses using self storage are restaurants, contractors, pharmaceuticals and hospitals, retail stores, movers, realtors. These are just some of the many businesses that use self storage.

Small Business Storage Solutions

Many self storage facilities offer temperature-controlled units, which keep businesses inventories safe from the elements to ensure their products maintain their quality.

Restaurants

Restaurants and bars that have extra tables and linen or additional items from special events or those “just in case” situations in inventory that will not fit in the dining establishment need self-storage. This will help maintain a clutter-free atmosphere for guests and give staff the room they need to fulfill orders and wait tables.

Contractors

If you are a contractor, you probably have extra materials and tools lying around, things can quickly become unorganized. With self-storage, you won’t have to worry about space. Take advantage of the special pricing for bulk materials. You will always have the materials you need for the job, readily available when you need them.

Pharmaceuticals & hospitals

Every medical facility is in need of some more space. If there are things that aren’t used daily such as patient files, cabinets, equipment, and additional medical supplies, they can be easily and safely stored in a unit with ease of access.

North Shore Mini Storage is the choice for small business storage.

This is inexpensive storage that operates 100% as advertised - they do not offer 24/7 access and do not charge 24/7 access pricing. They are incredibly responsive to requests to unlock doors and provide access. It is not fancy but if you need a clean, dry place to store your stuff, you can't beat these guys. Don't expect bells and/or whistles but you also won't be paying for them.

Have to phone to have buildings unlocked. Annoying.

Prices are 1/2 the price of other storage units but it shuts down (locked gates) from 10 am - 6 pm except if you have the enormous ground level outside facing units. Those hours are impossible. The technology getting items up to the second story is an actual forklift thats made stationary. You balance your items up the forklift (and you raise the wooden pallet up yourself) Then you must walk up stairs and hope their is a dolly available to wind precariously around tiny turning hallways. Budget carpentry and ancient carpet in the units. The trolleys sound and feel like their from 1980's and are either coached to disobey or they keep their own counsel. They say its secure but I had a neighbor pick something up and they weren't even asked for permission. I explicitly stated only I was to have access. They said they do not let it happen. The locks are your own, but the flip closure is attached by 3/4 wood screws easily and possibly quite quietly could be opened and emptied with no one batting an eye. A kid could detach it with anything. They have "24 hour security" which means a guy lives on site. Does he/she have CCTV access? Probably not, nor would you want that job. Are there motion sensors? Not likely as sometimes the lights won't turn on and finding a switch in the straggly wandering corridors is impossible. They do not offer insurance. You have to sign forms saying all the things you will and won't do, but they are not liable if anything happens: theft, fire, water, vandals, pests etcSo despite all those complaints, its still 4/5 only because of the prices.
