If you have been running a small business from a dedicated room in your home or outside space such as a shed or garage, and you find it is starting to take over the whole house, then we can help you free up space in your home, whilst you grow your business. Many of our units are rented out to small business owners who have recognised how self-storage can help with the day to day running of their business.
Some of the small businesses we currently rent storage units out to include:
- Tradespeople – who use self-storage to free up their home or garage space by storing their tools and equipment safely and securely with us
- eBay sellers and eCommerce – find that a self-storage unit is the perfect solution to store the stock they sell online and stop it cluttering their home
- Small publishers – a self-storage gives them space away from the home to organise, label, box and stores books, brochures and magazines which all take up space
- Professionals – with more and more people using their home as a base for work, the lines between home and workspace are becoming increasingly blurred, and self-storage offers a safe location to store paperwork and documents away from the home
The benefits of self-storage for home businesses include:
- Ability to upgrade or downsize your unit size at different times of the year if you have spikes and troughs in seasonal trade
- No need to commit to a long lease – at Offerfair we only require seven days’ notice when you want to vacate
- No extras costs such as business rates and utility bills meaning if you have outgrown your home working space, then self-storage is a much more cost-effective option than renting commercial storage space
- Peace of mind that your items will be safe and secure, as unlike most homes, our storage facilities are covered by CCTV and have their own alarm
If you run a home business but are increasingly finding you are running out of space, then talk to us about renting a self-storage unit – with units starting at just 15 sq ft, we will have a unit size that fits your requirements, and give you the reassurance that your tools, stock, documents or equipment will be kept clean, dry and safe with us.
