Why storage space is crucial for sole traders

Being a sole trader has its benefits. As well as having more control over your working life, you can enjoy more flexibility and decide what rate to charge your clients. But there are other more practical factors to consider if you’re a small set-up. Storage space for sole traders, for example, is crucial if you have an online retail business, but often comes with expensive overheads or a long-term financial commitment. Here, we look at why flexible storage space for sole traders can support business growth and how Triple D Express can help your enterprise in more ways than one.

Storage without the financial commitment

You wouldn’t have a good head for business if you didn’t want to keep your overheads as low as possible. But this can be difficult if you’re paying out a monthly fee for a storage facility, especially if this involves committing to a long-term rental agreement. Triple D Express can help keep your costs down by providing storage space for sole traders and start-ups that fits in with your business needs. Our dry, secure, and fully insured premises can keep your goods safe and are available to use as and when you need them. There’s no pressure to sign up for a minimum period of time; you can simply use our storage facilities when you need some extra room for your items or consignments.

Flexible storage space for sole traders

Like any other enterprise, sole traders will go through quieter periods and have months when business is booming. While this is completely natural, it can make it hard to make a judgment call if you’re looking for storage space. You might need extra room for your products in the run-up to Christmas, for example, but find you don’t need such a large storage space in the new year. On the flip side, you don’t want to be in a position where you have to turn down large orders that could mean business growth just because you don’t have enough storage capability. By using a flexible storage solution, you’ll be in a better position to accommodate the needs of your customers. Whether you have a small consignment of goods you’d like us to keep safe or a large order that needs to be securely stored, Triple D Express can help your business keep up with supply and demand.

Business support for sole traders

As a one-man/woman-band, sole traders have to carry out many roles to ensure the successful running of their business. Marketers, accountants, sales directors, etc, are all different ‘hats’ worn by sole traders on any one day, and it can be a lot to juggle. Because Triple D Express provide a service that combines storage with delivery, you can cross the role of ‘courier’ off your list. We can take the weight off your shoulders by collecting your items, taking them to our storage facility for as long as you need, and then delivering them to their new address. You won’t need to worry about calling us at the last minute because we provide same-day delivery for businesses close by and a next-day service nationwide. You can simply call us when you need your goods collected and be reassured that we’ll take care of them until we hand them over.
