Create An Inventory  Of Everything You Need To Store

Your first step should be to make a detailed inventory of everything you will need to store. If you are a retail or e-commerce business, this will be listing the amount of stock you need for an average month, taking into account busy periods such as Christmas. List all your equipment such as your packing materials, your postage labels, tape etc.

You should also consider whether you just want a unit or an office-unit combo. This will allow you to bring your entire business operations over to our Enfield store. This has proven to be very helpful for many of our business customers, including Rhianne Chin-Keow, founder of Cley Celebrations:

“I initially went just for a unit, but I explained my needs to the team and they told me about an office which was available and I got it there and then. I knew I was going to be at the unit quite often because I have to dispatch orders every single day. When they said there was an office – there’s heating, electricity, lighting, wifi – it meant I could take all my business operations out of my house and into Cinch Storage. It was just a no brainer.”

You should have a detailed inventory and really consider whether an office would also be beneficial. 

Remember To Leave Space For You

When you are thinking about how much space you need for your stock, equipment etc, you need to make sure that you remember to include space for you. You need to be able to get in your unit, walk around, select stock, pack orders, do inventory etc. Think about whether you need any furniture within your unit to make it easier to work in.

Adding this into your plan will make sure it is a comfortable and happy place to work. 

Leave Time To Look At Units 

If you have a date in mind for when you want to move into your unit, make sure you begin all your plans nice and early so you stand a better chance of getting a unit which is the right size and has all the amenities which you want.

Leaving it too long may lead to your ideal unit being fully booked and you may be forced to rethink your plans or wait to move in. This kind of delay could prevent your business from performing to the best of its ability. 

Choose The Right Unit 

Once you have your plan, you should have a much better idea of what size unit or what kind of unit would be best for you. For example, if you want to move your entire business operations over to our Enfield store, then an enterprise unit or an office-unit combo really would be the perfect solution.

Our Enfield team is always on hand to help and advise so make sure to get in touch if you have any queries. 

Consider Shelving Or Racking 

Once you have your unit, it is time to decide about what is the best way to store all of your stock and/or equipment. Shelving, racking and rails work very well if you are storing clothing or shoes, for example.

If you have stock which is better kept within boxes, you will need to plan the best way for you to stack them, making sure that any best selling items are easy to get to on a daily basis. 

Be Organised

This feeds nicely into tip 5 – be organised! Whether you are going for shelving, rails, boxes, make sure everything has a set place within your unit.

And remember to label everything – every box and every shelf. This will make life so much easier for you and, as your business grows, anyone who begins working for you.
