Over the past decade, Watford has seen a steady rise in terms of economic growth and a revitalised town centre. With great transport links to the Midlands and the North, and its enviable accessibility to London, it’s a dynamic business hub much in demand.

While this is great news for the town in general, all businesses need adequate storage for stock or equipment (or both) and sometimes space is at a premium. If your business is struggling for space, looking at ways to expand, or just needs a more efficient solution to current circumstances, Watford Business Storage has the answer.

Here are 4 prime ways we can help you grow a successful business and maximise your profits while keeping the overhead as low as possible.

Secure Document Storage

Safeguarding business records is vital, not only for your ongoing smooth operations, but to satisfy the legal demands of HMRC. Many records are kept digitally these days, but there are still instances where paper can’t be completely disregarded and, of course, you still need safe storage if you use physical digital backup methods.

Given that paper records often span several years, storing them within your day-to-day business premises is a waste of space you could put to better use.

Space isn’t the only consideration though. In a busy office, stored documents can easily be moved and misplaced, or they might be damaged through environmental hazards outside your control. Heaven forbid you suffer a fire or flood in the office.

It makes sense to keep important documents away from the main business site. Watford Business storage units are a convenient, secure alternative. Each unit is fitted with intruder alarms and fire detectors, providing multiple defences against damaging events.

Storing your documents safely and securely gives you more space in the office. But it also offers peace of mind when your records are organised and protected for whenever you need to retrieve them.

Watford Warehousing and Retail Stock

You don’t have to spend long working in retail before you realise just what a huge proportion of the business revolves around stock management. The whole business depends on it. Too much stock, and you’re wasting space and leaving profits on the table, too little and the business cycle grinds to a stop.

Having enough room to organise, categorise and count streamlines stock management. With Watford business storage we have units from 10 sq ft up to 500 sq ft, with the option to combine units for much larger requirements. There’s plenty of breathing room for you to get your inventory under control.

Stock taking is easier, picking and packing becomes more efficient, and with a bespoke system new staff members find their feet faster.

Moving Office in Watford Made Easier

When you’re moving to new office premises, there’s bound to be some disruption and upheaval. Having a local Watford self storage unit provides a convenient drop off and storage point while you transition. It’s a place to hold equipment, stock or machinery you’re not using during the move so it’s not in the way and won’t get damaged.

Relocating your business can be a stressful as well as an exciting time. Having a half way house in the form of a secure storage unit gives everyone a bit of breathing room and helps you stay in control, minimise accidental loss or damage and complete the move without too much disruption.

Security for Watford Businesses

Advanced security systems include 24/7 CCTV surveillance, pin-code access, intruder alarms and smoke and fire detectors. Coupled with easy access, good transport communications and flexible contract terms, Watford business storage works with the business community to help build the thriving growth the area has seen recently.

Business owners across the region are taking advantage of the many benefits business self storage offers, confident in the professional-level security our facilities provide. It’s one less thing for you to worry about, leaving you free to get on with daily operations while we keep your vital stock, equipment or records safe and secure.
