Access to storage space can be a challenging issue for small businesses to tackle. When cash is tight and value for money is paramount, it can be difficult to find an option that works for you. As a start-up company, how do you achieve access to affordable storage solutions?

Companies such as Lok’nStore can provide the answer at cheap prices. Through the company’s service, small start-ups in need of some storage space for its products can find the right solution.

For example, you can tailor your pallet storage to the exact requirements that you need. Because you only pay for what storage space you need or use and you can increase or decrease the space when planning for your business’s ups and downs, it’s the most economical way to go – with no hidden costs or fees.

You can also store as much as you like, with palletised goods stored for you in steel units or open areas, whichever is most suitable. You can store just one single pallet or thousands of pallets, whichever you need.

Take warehouse space as another example; you may need goods stored in steel units or in open areas, but all storage areas at Lok’nStore have easy access, good facilities and free handling, including a forklift truck operated by the company’s own people – as well as easy parking for you and your colleagues. There’s also a simple flexible contract; no long-term commitments and no complex leases; no signing up or arrangements to make. And you only have to give a week’s notice to change or cancel your storage when you no longer need it.

Other services include flexible office space. You can choose from a range of office sizes and locations, all with on-site storage available, meaning you’ll get everything your business needs in one place without having to sign a long lease. You won’t need to pay rates or utilities on top, either. And with weekly, four-weekly and annual terms available, you can easily change your office space as your business grows.

It might be that you’re looking for a safe home for your precious paperwork. Whether you need storage for personal documentation or for archive storage for your records, with Lok’nStore self service archives you get secure private document and archive storage rooms racked and ready to go.

It’s these types of storage solutions that can make the difference in your business. Don’t be spending too much on a rigid solution – get the best value from flexible storage services and watch your small business thrive.
