Is your office or workplace busting at the seams with clutter? Chances are you have more floor space wasted on designated storage space. This makes your work area look less appealing and more cramped. Since these items are not used, they tend to gather dust and make organizing a total hassle. Studies show that people working in cramped spaces are more prone to stress than their counterparts in less cluttered environments. Most clients will also prefer to do business with a company that looks more organized.

Why Choose Self Storage?

Self storage is an industry wherein storage space is rented out to tenants on a monthly or yearly basis. The self storage provider has lockers, rooms, containers and even outdoor space that a tenant can use to store items and be able to access their goods when needed.


Small business owners benefit best from self storage space as they usually rent out smaller locations to run their businesses. In example, a restaurateur must re-invent his or her restaurant regularly to keep it looking fresh and up-to-date. While some furniture might be too worn-down to be re-used, other items may come in handy one day. A self-storage space is an ideal place to keep used furniture that still shows potential. This is also a good place to store extra inventory safely.

Cost Effective and Secure

Self storage containers are usually reasonably priced. The average business owner would be able to afford storage space because they are mostly charged at cost-effective monthly rates. By storing your items that are not immediately required in such a facility, you will have more floor area available to you, your personnel and clients. With this storage solution, you can free up your establishment without having to worry about the safety of your items. Remember to pick a storage company with stringent security measures like individual alarms and 24 hour CCTV cameras.

Self storage containers are ideal for individuals that have businesses in areas that are prone to flooding, hurricanes, tornadoes and other natural disasters. Instead of losing important business documents to the wiles of nature, consider investing in a safe and secure location for your business paraphernalia. Make it a point to determine what you wish to store beforehand and organize the area so that it will be accessible, should you want to re-use anything in the future.

Climate Control 

Climate control improves the longevity of your items. Severe cold or hot temperatures can destroy your valuables. If not protected properly, items like books, documents, furniture, clothes and electronic appliances can be damaged. Climate control storage facilities keep your items at maintained temperatures of 12–25 degree Celsius by way of heat and central air conditioning. This means that your things are less likely to warp, rust, corrode and fall prey to infestations, mold, mildew and bacteria. Proper storage can provide your valuable items with an increased protection from dust, dirt and humidity.

Keep in mind that climate controlled containers may cost more than standard spaces. If you plan to store regular and replaceable items in your container, you might want to opt for the standard container. However, if you have an inventory that includes valuable items like fur, antiques, fine art, important documents and other irreplaceable items that have historical or sentimental value, a climate controlled unit would be best for you. Remember to consider the weather of your city or province. If the weather is extremely hot, an air conditioning unit would be beneficial. Locations with cold weather warrant storage containers with adequate heating. This will prove beneficial for business owners who operate in locations that have extreme temperatures.

Self storage solutions allow the business proprietor peace of mind and extra floor space. When picking out a self storage provider, it is important to choose a storage company with an excellent track record in terms of security. Reading client reviews to get a good idea about the solution provider you plan to store your inventory with can effectively help you save on overhead costs. De-clutter your work space, reduce stress and create a healthy working environment today.

    To save some space - gather documents from previous years and store them in a climate controlled self storage. Eugene, Or has a few that several companies store all their long-term paperwork in.

    IF your office is busting at the seams with doucments and the like, besides self storage, you know what you need? A new office! That means more staff and that means you can handle more business! Good for you!
