What Kind Of Businesses Can Use Self Storage

Alan Storage from Kiwi Self Storage - North Shore

Calling all businesses! You can all utilize self storage in some way, to help your company grow and expand!

We have large drive up commerical storage units suitable for all businesses. Here are just some of the types of businesses that can use self storage:


Publishers
Need to store magazines, brochures or books before you sell them? Or store excess stock? A self storage unit is perfect for this, our staff can assist with deliveries too. You can move to a larger or smaller unit if you need more space.

Contractors and Tradies
Keeping your tools or equipment in your garage or vehicle can seem convenient but can come with some risks, theft being the main one. Tools of the trade can be expensive and it can set you back a lot of money to replace them suddenly, not to mention potentially losing a days’ work. If you keep everything in a storage unit, you can rest assured that your tools and equipment will be safe in our facilities.

Theatre Groups
Need somewhere to store all of those sets, props and costumes? Look no further. You could even use it as a living and breathing costume department.

Online businesses
Storage facilities are perfect for online businesses. You can have your shipping containers unpacked and cleared and the contents delivered straight to your unit. Often when you’re starting out, your inventory can grow faster than the space you’ve got available so self storage can be a real help.

Sales reps / Merchandisers
What do you do if your business, office or home is on one side of the city and your customer base another? Can you fit all of your samples and stock into your car? Even if you can, is it worth the risk of theft? A self storage unit can be ideal. Not only does it make it easy to keep an inventory, you can come and go as often as you like and if you need more storage, you can look at getting a larger unit.

There are lots of opportunities for all sorts of businesses to utilize self storage.

Our North Shore self storage facility is easy to access from Constellation Drive. We are beside Bunnings next to the Northern Motorway at the Upper Harbour Highway interchange and just 7 minutes' North of the Auckland Harbour Bridge.
