Selecting the right storage unit size for your business needs can be a critical decision. Too large, and you might be wasting money on unnecessary space. Too small, and you could find yourself cramped for room. Canford Magna Storage offers a practical guide to assist you in making an informed decision tailored to your specific requirements.


1. Assess Your Current Needs


Start by understanding what exactly you intend to store. From excess inventory, equipment, or important documents, take stock of everything. Measure larger items and take note of how much space you realistically need.


Many people underestimate the size of the unit they need so it is always wise to err on the side of caution and book a unit bigger than you think you'll need.

2. Consider Future Requirements


Think about the growth of your business and any seasonal variations in inventory. Selecting a unit that fits your immediate needs might make sense now, but consider the future to avoid relocating your stored items later.


3. Think Accessibility


How frequently will you need to access the stored items? If you need regular access, consider a larger unit that allows for aisles and easier navigation. Canford Magna offers a variety of storage solutions that can fit different accessibility needs.


4. Evaluate Security and Climate Control


Some items might need more protection or climate control. Canford Magna offers units with varying levels of security features and climate control options. Understand what is essential for your stored goods to ensure that you choose the right unit.


5. Seek Professional Guidance


Canford Magna's experienced staff can provide a personalised assessment to guide you to the storage unit that suits your business needs best. From small lockers to large units, our team can give a realistic estimate of the space required.


6. Flexibility Matters


Business needs can change. Look for a storage provider that offers the flexibility to upsize or downsize your unit without significant hassle or cost. At Canford Magna, we strive to provide options that can adapt to your evolving business landscape.


Conclusion: An Informed Decision


Choosing the right storage unit size is not merely about finding a place to store things. It is a decision that requires careful consideration of both your current needs and future possibilities. Security, accessibility, flexibility – all these factors contribute to a solution that is both practical and economically sound.
