Space Centre Storage in Kelowna has accredited forklift drivers and a loading dock to safely store away your seasonal items for commercial storage.
If your place of work is starting to look like a junkyard due to tires lying around and tarps draped over equipment, there is a solution.
There are a number of commercial storage options available that will help prevent your tools and equipment from the damaging effects of weather and also clean up your place of work and give you more space.
You'll also have a better chance at preventing theft with secure storage in an indoor storage facility.
Consider these 4 things when looking for a space:
1. Does the facility offer secure commercial lease space?
The advantage of a commercial lease space over renting or owning your own warehouse is that you won't be the only one responsible for the security and protection of your items.
When looking for a commercial leasing space, make sure the facility offers:
- 24/7 video surveillance
- Alarm systems
- Security patrols
- Climate control
- Shelving
- Larger-than-average storage space
- Office space
2. Does the facility have self-storage or mini storage?
A storage locker or space that you load yourself may be the best, and more affordable, course of action if you need tire storage, etc. Some self-storage options to consider include:
- Heated storage spaces for fragile items
- Variety of sized units
- 24-hour accessibility
- Drive-through covered access
- Enhanced security
3. Can you lease a mobile storage container?
If you'd prefer not to bring your items from your workplace to a storage facility, why not bring the storage to your workplace? You can with a mobile storage container called a MI-BOX®.
Delivered to your place of work, the unit can easily fit into a standard parking lot and can be rented on a month-by-month basis. You simply fill the container with whatever you don't need and have it picked up to be stored at the storage facility, or leave it at your place of business until the time comes for it to be picked up.
4. What are the extras offered?
With all of these storage options available, you'll want to make sure your chosen storage facility has the ability to handle heavy loads for your tools or equipment and also offers other helpful services.
Consider whether the storage facility has:
- Trucks and accredited drivers
- Loading and unloading equipment such as loading docks, forklifts, pallet jacks and dollies
- Office space for those needing fax and copier services
- File and document storage
