Coworking spaces and self-storage

Small companies often face the challenge of keeping both their office and storage costs as low as possible without sacrificing flexibility and efficiency. In the modern working world, coworking spaces and self-storage offer a clever combination. The combination of both concepts enables companies to work flexibly, store products or materials securely and keep their fixed costs under control.

In this article, you’ll find out why the combination of coworking spaces and self-storage makes sense for small businesses in particular, what advantages it offers and how you can make the most of this synergy for your business.

What are coworking spaces?

Coworking spaces are shared workspaces in which freelancers, start-ups and small companies work together. They offer an alternative to the traditional office and make it possible to use a flexible workplace without having to sign long-term rental contracts. Coworking spaces are usually equipped with everything you need for day-to-day work – from Wi-Fi and meeting rooms to communal areas.

The special thing about coworking spaces is that they promote exchange and networking. Different entrepreneurs and freelancers work in the same space, which often leads to valuable synergies. This results in collaborations, ideas and sometimes even new business opportunities.

What is self-storage?

Self-storage describes the option of renting storage space as required. Instead of maintaining large warehouses or their own storage rooms, self-storage providers such as STORE ROOM offer flexible storage solutions that can be individually adapted to a company’s needs. Companies can securely store goods, materials, files or even office equipment there – all according to their own schedule. These storage units are accessible around the clock and offer the necessary security through video surveillance and access control. Self-storage offers the perfect solution for small companies that don’t need huge storage spaces: flexible, cost-effective and secure.

STORE ROOM is a flexible self-storage company offering secure and cost-effective storage space for individuals and businesses. STORE ROOM offers customized storage solutions that are ideal for small businesses, e-commerce operators and coworking space providers who need additional storage space.

The advantages of combining coworking spaces and self-storage

Cost savings and flexibility

The biggest advantage of combining coworking spaces and self-storage is the cost savings. Instead of paying high rents for a permanent office and your own storage space, you can use both flexibly. Coworking spaces allow you to book workspaces on demand and self-storage offers a scalable solution for your storage needs. So you only pay for the space you really need – both in the office and in the warehouse.

This flexibility is particularly valuable for small companies that are still in the growth phase or have seasonal fluctuations. If you need more storage space or additional workstations, you can expand both easily and at short notice.

Increased efficiency

Good logistics and work organization are crucial for the success of a company. The combination of coworking and self-storage ensures that your office and warehouse are perfectly coordinated. Do you have products or materials that need to be shipped or used regularly? Then you can access them at any time in a nearby self-storage facility without having to travel long distances. The proximity between the workplace and the warehouse ensures that your team can work efficiently – whether it’s packing orders, organizing materials or processing customer inquiries.

Promoting innovation and collaboration

Coworking spaces are not only places to work, but also breeding grounds for innovation. In such an environment, you have the opportunity to come into contact with other entrepreneurs, freelancers and start-ups. These people often come from different industries and bring fresh ideas or new perspectives with them. Regular exchanges and networking often lead to creative collaborations or new business ideas. Imagine you run a small company that sells physical products. In a coworking space, you might meet a designer who can help you develop new product lines or a marketing expert who can promote your products more effectively.

Professional storage solutions

With self-storage, you have the option of tailoring your storage solution exactly to your needs. Do you only need a small space for files or a larger area for products and materials? Self-storage offers various sizes and options that can be flexibly adapted. These storage units are also secure and offer additional services such as temperature and video monitoring as well as insurance to ensure your goods are optimally protected.

With STORE ROOM, your storage is very simple: choose from different booking periods. There is no notice period, you remain completely flexible.

Important points for the selection

The right location

When combining coworking spaces and self-storage, location plays a decisive role. Ideally, your coworking space and self-storage facility should be located in the same area or at least nearby. This saves time and ensures that you can access your stored materials or products quickly.

STORE ROOM offers you four different locations in Vienna and the surrounding area that are close to coworking spaces.

Safety and accessibility

When it comes to storage solutions, security is an important issue. Make sure that the self-storage unit is well secured, for example with video surveillance, access controls and alarm systems. You should also check that the storage unit is accessible to you at all times. STORE ROOM offers you round-the-clock access via smartphone app and state-of-the-art security technology, while others have opening hours that you must observe.

Flexibility of contracts

With both coworking spaces and self-storage, it is important that the contracts are flexible. Small companies are often in a growth phase or subject to seasonal fluctuations. It should be possible to expand or reduce the rented space (whether office or storage) at short notice if necessary. STORE ROOM offers you this flexibility by allowing you to choose from different rental periods and have them automatically extended.

Practical example: An e-commerce company

Imagine an e-commerce company that sells handmade products online. The founders want to work flexibly and at the same time store their products securely without investing a lot of money in their own offices or warehouses. They opt for a coworking space as a flexible workplace and use a nearby self-storage warehouse to store their products.

This combination enables them to work efficiently: They can process orders in a professional environment and at the same time quickly access their stocked products to ship them. By exchanging ideas with other entrepreneurs in the coworking space, they receive valuable tips for optimizing their online marketing and can increase their reach.

Why self-storage also makes sense for coworking operators

The use of self-storage can offer considerable advantages not only for small companies, but also for coworking space operators themselves. Operators often need to provide additional space for office furniture, event equipment, archive materials or seasonal decorations. Instead of planning expensive, fixed storage space in their premises, they can react flexibly and cost-effectively to storage requirements with self-storage. This means that the coworking area remains optimally usable for tenants, while items that are rarely needed are safely stored in self-storage. This solution not only offers more flexibility in space planning, but also helps operators to reduce their costs by only paying for the storage space they actually need.

The combination of coworking spaces and self-storage is an ideal solution for small businesses looking for flexibility, cost efficiency and professional working and storage conditions. It offers the opportunity to work in an inspiring environment, reduce costs and at the same time flexibly adapt storage requirements.

Whether you’re founding a start-up, running a small e-commerce business or working as a freelancer, the combination of coworking and self-storage could be just the solution to take your business to the next level.
