Renting Self Storage for Your Business: How You Can Best Use Your Space

Small business owners often find themselves in need of more room for their important items, whether it’s for inventory, documents, or equipment. Self storage can be a practical solution, offering the flexibility and security needed to efficiently manage and expand operations. This extra space not only helps in decluttering valuable workspace but also in streamlining business processes, leading to improved productivity and growth. Explore the different ways your business can benefit from more storage space.

Home Service Businesses

Keep all your supplies, tools, and materials close to the worksite. If you have an upcoming job near Lorain, OH, or in the Penn Hills-Pittsburgh, PA, area, come by one of our Defender Self Storage facilities, and let our staff set you up with the right storage unit. Swap items in and out as needed. You can also use it as a space to store bulky items like lawnmowers or saws.

Brick-and-Mortar Retail Stores

Clean up any clutter in your store by storing extra furniture, decorations, or inventory in a storage unit. Find one close by for easy access when you need it. Prepare better for the changing of the seasons by stocking seasonal products ahead of time with your new extra space.

E-Commerce Businesses

Make sure your inventory and supplies are not taking over your house. Just because you run your business from home does not mean it you need to use up all your home storage. When you store with us, you can bring in new merchandise when you make or order it, and then take the products that sell online to package orders. Think of your self storage space as an extension of your workplace.

What Items Can You Store in Business Storage?

With a range of storage unit sizes, Defender Self Storage can hold whatever you need:

  • Equipment/furniture
  • Decorations/seasonal items
  • Inventory
  • Documents/records
