Tradies, such as plumbers, carpenters, landscapers, painters and electricians, require space to store their equipment, tools, and materials. However, many businesses (especially when starting out) often lack adequate storage space on their premises. This is where self-storage can be a valuable solution for growing trade businesses.
A self-storage facility is designed to provide businesses with a safe and secure space to store their tools, equipment, and materials. Here are some reasons why self-storage is good for tradies:
Cost-effective
Commercial lettings are extremely expensive, and for tradies who have outgrown their home storage, a self-storage container is the next best choice. Renting a self-storage container is often more cost-effective than leasing a warehouse or office space, and certainly less expensive than building your own shed.
Mumma Moff guarantees the best price on the Central Coast for ground-level shipping container self-storage*. Mumma Moffs Storage Boxes are 6.1m long x 2.44m wide x 2.59m high (20 ft). We have estimated that one storage container can store the contents from a large three-bedroom home, a small four-bedroom home or a two-bedroom home with additional items.
Convenient
Self-storage facilities are usually conveniently located in most areas, which makes them accessible for tradies to store their equipment and tools. Trade businesses can choose a facility that is located close to their premises or job site for easy access.
Mumma Moffs locations are conveniently located only 10 minutes from the M1 Pacific Motorway. These central locations make it a fantastic spot for the team to meet and load before heading out on your first job of the day. Power tools, hand tools, cement mixers, scaffolding, lawn mowers, ride-on mowers, whipper snippers, paint supplies, small trailers and materials are just some of the many things that can be safely stored in Mumma Moffs’ easy access ground-level shipping containers.
Or, Mumma Moff can come to you. Our mobile self-storage solution bypasses the need to travel back and forth to a fixed self-storage container to drop off and collect your belongings. If you have the space, we simply drop the container on your doorstep to use as you see fit. You can find out more on our mobile self-storage page.
Secure
Self-storage facilities offer advanced security features such as CCTV surveillance, access control, and alarms. This ensures that a business’s tools, equipment, and materials are safe and secure at all times. Additionally, some facilities offer climate-controlled containers to protect sensitive equipment and materials from environmental factors.
Mumma Moffs’ Self-Storage boxes are secure, waterproof, dust-free and fitted with air vents for ventilation. Mumma Moff has security cameras operating 24/7 along with night-time floodlights. So, rest assured your belongings will be safe in the hands of Mumma Moff. A self-storage container is also a much safer option than storing your tools and equipment within your vehicle!
Flexible
Self-storage facilities offer flexible rental terms, which means businesses can rent a container for as little or as long as they need. This flexibility allows trade businesses to adjust their storage needs based on the demand of their business.
Mumma Moffs offers no lock-in contract month-to-month plans that will suit any growing trade business.
Space-saving
Renting a self-storage container frees up valuable space on a business’s premises (or your home). This allows businesses to use their space more efficiently and effectively, which can increase productivity and profitability.
In conclusion, self-storage is a practical and cost-effective solution for tradies looking for additional space to store their tools, equipment, and materials. Self-storage containers offer businesses the convenience, security, flexibility, and space-saving benefit they need to operate their business more efficiently.
