Factors to Consider when Choosing Business Storage Units
Before you choose a storage unit, there are many factors that you need to consider when you will be using it for your business. Many storage units are simple boxes that hold items temporarily, however, some companies have additional accessories for your units or temperature control options that could change the price of your unit. Looking at different business storage units will help streamline your business practices.
Unit Accessibility
700 Block Storage offers different means of accessibility to our units. All units are located no farther than 100 feet from an elevator. This makes hauling items into and out of your unit easy. We also provide large covered parking and drive-up units to help businesses store construction equipment and vehicles without hassle.
Security Measures
The security of a facility is important to protect your items and prevent money loss. Keeping your items locked up and under video surveillance is important to our company. Business owners should be able to have peace of mind about their supplies when storing them in a business storage unit. Our team can help you understand the security measures we take and what we can do to increase them if you feel necessary.
Costs and Benefits
Cost-benefit analysis is another factor that business owners should look at before renting a unit. Every storage company is unique, so shopping all of your options can help you get the most bang for your buck. If your business will not be able to operate efficiently out of a unit, it is not worth your money. Consider organization, rental costs, fees, and operational strategies.
How To Use Self-Storage For Your Business
Many businesses run out of space quickly. Maximizing the space of a storage unit and using it for specific aspects of your business can improve your efficiency. Here are some of the ways business owners can utilize a storage unit from 700 Block Storage.
Manufacturing and Distribution
If your business focuses on creating a product or parts and shipping them to customers, a storage unit can help. Your business can store raw materials, finished goods, equipment, and machinery inside a climate-controlled unit. Proper storage facilities will help streamline your distribution and improve your operational excellence.
Protecting Important Documents
Legal forms, tax information, patient records, financial documents, and other archive records are all important in business. Especially if you hold onto sensitive client information, a proper storage unit can give you peace of mind. A temperature-controlled unit will prevent moisture damage to these documents like mold or deterioration. Storage units help you access this information easily while safeguarding client confidentiality.

Can You Run a Business Out of a Storage Unit?
Having a storage unit as your business’s home base is not possible, but it can be used to help you efficiently manage all tasks that come with running a business. Not only can you keep inventory in the storage unit, but you can also use it as a printing station or local pick-up location for orders. Storage units should only be used for smaller business needs, not the day-to-day operations or meetings with clients. Different-sized storage units or drive-up units can be used to store items you are not currently using without causing clutter to your main office building.
