Do you have your tools everywhere? Read this to find a solution.
Self storage can be a great solution for tradespeople to securely store their equipment. Here are a few reasons why:
- Convenience: Self storage units are typically accessible 24/7, which means tradespeople can easily access their equipment when they need it, without having to worry about business hours or availability.
- Security: Self storage facilities often have security measures in place, such as surveillance cameras and gated access, to protect stored items from theft or damage.
- Space-saving:
Many tradespeople may not have enough room to store their equipment on their own property or at their business location. Self storage units can provide additional space to store equipment, tools and materials. And if you're managing an expanding business or inventory, consider how eCommerce operations also benefit from offsite storage—it’s a model that tradespeople can draw inspiration from.
- Climate Control: Some self-storage facilities offer climate-controlled units which can help to protect equipment from extreme temperatures and humidity, which can cause damage to the equipment, or make it difficult to use.
- Cost-effective:
Self storage can be a cost-effective solution for tradespeople, as they can rent a unit that is the right size for their needs and only pay for the space they need. This can be more economical than renting a larger workshop or expanding your current space. Not sure what it might cost? Here's a guide on how much self-storage really costs to help you weigh your options.
- Organisation: Self-storage units also allow for easy organisation and separation of tools and equipment, making it easier for tradespeople to find what they need, when they need it.
Overall, self storage can be a practical and efficient solution for tradespeople to store their equipment, and it gives them peace of mind that their tools and equipment are safe and secure.
