Self Storage with Racking and shelving will optimise your internal self storage space.
If you are renting self storage space for really efficient storage, it is recommended you fit out your self-storage room with self-standing racking and shelving. Self storage with racking Huntingdon makes it perfect for storing archive documentation, goods for retail, your Ebay items & stock, tools, parts and components.
Racking and shelving allows you to go higher and maximise the use of the space within the storage unit. This can often save you hiring a larger storage room, because every inch of your space is optimised. An additional benefit is that your storage unit becomes safer and easier to access with no more piles of cardboard boxes piled up on the floor.
Do you end up wasting valuable time trying to find specific stock items, documents and files, or specific components and tools. Well organised racking can save you hours of time by putting the items right in front of you. Notice we mentioned the words “well organised”, simply adding racking and then not following organised stock control procedures will simply mean that you can store more in a space and it will potentially take you even longer to locate.

Self Storage with Racking Huntingdon perfect for archives, tools, parts, components and retail goods
Documentation and archives:
The records your business or organisation keeps are vitally important. Sales records, orders, patient or financial data that HMRC might want to be able to access. As a business its critical that the archived / important information that you retain is organised better in racking, plus it is stored without damage and easily accessible when you need it.
If files are stored in boxes then as a minimum make sure the box is clearly labelled with a reference number. In a notebook or electronically list the contents of each box. That way you will be able to at least identify the exact box to be opened. If you are feeling totally organised then label the racking to mirror the box label, that way you can ensure the box is put back in the correct location
