For businesses, there’s no such thing as too much storage space.
With documents, equipment, materials, inventory, and more, it isn’t uncommon to run out of room at your business, whether it’s an office space or a space at home.
And if you’re in the process of relocating your business, commercial retail or office premises, often temporary storage space is needed in between moves and setting up in your new location.
Are you downsizing for now?
The past two years have certainly up-ended the way we work. It has also made a significant shift to remote working, however some businesses are now making a return to the office. Others are reassessing the size of their headquarters and are making different choices.
All of this consideration means that one either has to offload any excess items and equipment, or storage may be the solution.
Temporary or long-term storage?
This could mean a downsized move to a smaller office, or a more convenient location. With this comes the consideration given to what to keep, what to get rid of. Temporary secure storage may well be the preferred option in this instance, and here at Shires Removals we have 24/7 security for our vast storage unit.
Alternatively, if you are in need of long-term storage, this is what we do too. Keeping important items safe, dry, and secure in our storage unit is far better than keeping it in lofts or garages.
Of course, it also keeps your office space clear for day to day items, instead of all those belongings that aren’t looked at from one month to the next. Or years, even!
Storage helps to minimise business overheads
Paying for storage space at our Shires facility could easily turn out much more affordable than renting additional office space every month to store things you don’t often need to access. It can benefit all types of businesses and helps to minimise overheads.
The range of companies who use business storage
It is not only large companies that need to make use of storage facilities, it is also smaller businesses, especially where there is rapid growth. Storage is also needed by online entrepreneurs and ecommerce brands to keep extra stock if they are short of their own space.
These can include publishers, book dealers, retail, catering, property, servicing businesses – besides many other industries and types of businesses who need storage in order to operate smoothly.

Packing so that it is ready for storage
Shires Removals use containerised storage, and we can arrive at your premises with the containers already in the van, ready to load. This keeps everything organised, and you can make your own inventory list of what you have stored in each. This way, it is easy to locate what you are looking for if you have more than one storage container.
Need help with packing too? This is an added service we offer, to ensure your daily business operations can continue to run uninterrupted.
