Business Stuff

When people in South Africa think of self-storage, they think about its personal benefits, and that’s a fair call. For instance, you’re moving and need a place to store your stuff in the process or, you’re downsizing but can’t let go of a few memories and for some reason, magazines (those are digital now btw guys, just saying). At the end of the day we probably have to admit that we’re all hoarders, but in a less frightening tv expose kinda way. That’s beside the point though. The point is, businesses need self-storage too, for various compelling reasons. 📦

Why would a business in SA need storage facilities?

Well the answer is many fold, but we’ll unpack (see what we did there… yeah, no, we’ll show ourselves out) the top 6 reasons here for you quick:

1. Cost

We won’t bury the lead. Renting a unit, with its flexible month-to-month agreements, is simply a cost efficient solution for your overflow office equipment, supplies, files or other stuff (not employees though, please and thank you). Why extend office space at a premium, when you can simply keep your ‘not needed right now’ items off-site at a fraction of the cost.

2. Scalability

As your business grows, and your storage needs change, so can your unit. We have a variety of sizes to suit every business and budget. Plus, the need for multiple units is also possible. We’re your one stop storage shop basically.

3. Flexibility.

Only need a unit for a few months that turns into a few years, it’s all good. Terms are month to month. You can pack up and go any time you like, or extend your stay as well.

4. Office Efficiency

There are studies on how a clutter-free work environment leads to increased productivity. This is where self-storage comes in. Use it to keep spaces organised and reap the benefits of that. There is no reason your Social Media Manager / IT Specialist / Copious Amounts of Coffee Drinker needs to sit on the surplus stock.

5. Security

You are in charge of padlocking your unit (you can buy one from us) – we would suggest zip-ties don’t quite cut it FWIW, but the rest is up to us. There is a guard on duty 24/7, high fences, electric too mind you and CCTV cameras.

6. Accessibility.

Storage City has 3 large locations, perfectly situated to ensure you are close to your stuff for easy access and convenience. Plus all units have drive-in access. So no lugging boxes about. There’s plenty more to be said about choosing Self-Storage for your business, but we’re running out of space here – ironic since that’s what we’re pitching. Our units fill up fast, but give us a shout and we’ll see if we have the right spot for you.

All these reasons and more are why you should just say Stuff It and come to us.
