Whether you’re self-employed or have your own business, finding the ideal office setup is vital for your working life. If you’ve outgrown your existing space or are looking to move from a home office, investing in a new office space can be the perfect next step for your business.
Here at Kangaroo Self Storage, we have many facilities that offer office space with flexible and convenient agreements. In this guide, we’ll go through everything you need to know when looking for an office space, from scalability considerations to selecting a space that meets business needs.
There are several ways to know that it may be time to upgrade your existing office setup or change up your environment to better suit the changing needs of your business. Here are some signs that it might be time to find a new office space:
If you’ve already outgrown an office space, then there’s a high likelihood that you will one day outgrow your next office, too. That’s why it’s crucial to select a space that can give you flexible arrangements. For startups and businesses in early stages, flexibility allows for room to grow without being locked into long-term commitment.
With our office spaces, there is just a 4-week minimum commitment, which works as an excellent solution for either startups or businesses currently in between office spaces. Short-term leases like ours are ideal for companies that need temporary space or for those uncertain about the business’s potential growth. By selecting a flexible office space, you give your business adaptability, which is vital for ensuring success.
This somewhat goes without saying, but if you’re looking for a new office space, then you need to make sure that it is close to where your business operates. This may be close to a retail space you currently have, where your employees are based, and if you’re a service-based business, then close to your network of customers. We have office space in several locations across the Northwest of England and Scotland, within a short distance to major cities, including:
Picking the right location for your new office space is a key consideration in ensuring that your business is operating as efficiently as possible. Whether that means you’re in close proximity to clients, employees, or external retail sites, there’s no point in investing in a new office space if you’re going to be spending large amounts of money and time on transport.
If you’re running a product-based business, or you’re service-based but use large or heavy equipment, then finding an office space with additional storage might be the way forward. If your business specialises in products, then having a storage space in addition to your office space creates an easy solution for managing inventory and shipping orders. Equally, if you run a service-based business and need somewhere to both store operating equipment and run operations, then our facilities might be of interest to you.
We specialise in providing both office space and self-storage units in varying sizes, allowing you to find a combination of both that works for your business’s growing needs. Our self-storage units range from 16 ft2 to 500 ft2 in some locations, meaning that if you find yourself needing to expand your storage space, we have options that can facilitate that. Rather than finding a separate office and storage space, why not have them in the same building? This reduces the effort of managing multiple spaces and ensures you have everything you need under one roof.
If you feel that your business could benefit from an upgrade of its office space, then we’re here to help. Our facilities offer the ideal blend of convenient office space and spacious storage so that you have all that your business needs under one roof.
