How do I choose the right storage unit?

An extra storage unit offers the perfect solution if you want to clear stock, documents, and files out of your home office or garage (which we do not recommend using anyway).  

Can you run a business from somewhere other than an office? Absolutely. Apple's success story started in a garage. 

In fact, many businesses started out in a storage unit or a junk room.

Of course, we cannot promise you will be as successful as Apple. But we can help you find the best storage option for your business. 

Here are the main factors to consider when choosing a storage unit. 

How much space does a storage unit offer?

· How much inventory and paperwork do you have?

· Do you need space for furniture, storage areas, and files? 

· Do you need shelving? 

· Do you need to store large items?

These are the most important factors when choosing the right size for your storage unit

If you already know the answers to these questions, it will be even easier for our team to find the perfect storage unit for you. 

You can visit the storage units at your chosen location or contact us online.

Practical tip: If your inventory currently fits into a garage, grab a tape measure and note down the room's dimensions. If your business is expanding, simply choose the next larger available unit size.

Storage unit Vienna: Do you need electricity?

Wait, do storage units have electricity now?

Some do. Our storage facility on Berninastrasse offers power sockets. Other storage units do have electrical connections, but they are not suitable for continuous operation. 

If your inventory includes medicines, cosmetics, cigars or other temperature-sensitive items, you should choose a storage unit with power access so you can plug in a fridge, humidor, wine cooler, etc. 

You may also need to connect a computer to the mains network. 

Remember: If you decide that you definitely need electricity, make sure this is one of the first things you mention when making an enquiry.

How should I manage my documents? 

If your business is located near the storage unit, you will have access at all times. If you live further away, a management service could help you to: 

• Cataloguing the contents of boxes and files
• Keep documents safe and secure
• Retrieve and provide documents on request 

How much does a storage unit cost? 

The cost of your storage unit depends on the size rented. We also need to know whether you require electricity or not. 

In any case, our affordable prices offer a great alternative to renting additional commercial property for your business.
