What is a warehouse for rent?
Let’s start with a definition so we have a base for discussion.
A warehouse is a building for storing goods. Nothing more and nothing less. The traditional view of a warehouse is one of those large, cement, rectangular buildings we all see in business/industrial parks on the outskirts of cities, mammoth structures of 50,000 square feet with multiple loading docks and semi-trucks parked outside. But times are changing in the industrial sector; you might say that industry is downsizing. There are many more small businesses which are in need of storage space, like a warehouse for rent, but a storage space which is considerably smaller and less expensive than the gargantuan structures of the past.
What does a cheap warehouse cost?
We are dealing with very subjective dollar figures in this section simply because rental costs depend upon location, size, zoning, etc. Having said that and using the creative approach we will talk about in this next section, prices for a warehouse can vary from as little as $750 per month and as much as $10,000 or more per month. Cheap warehouse for rent? Let’s say $750 to $2000 per month, 2024 prices, remembering there are variables which will be affected by several factors.
Get creative if you have to.
Okay, let’s get creative. Small warehouse? How about a storage unit? The largest you can find will be about 600 square feet in size, rented month to month, no long-term commitment, and at a price which is certainly inexpensive compared to traditional storage space.
How about purchasing a pre-fab storage shed, the kind you can find at Home Depot or Lowes, or rent to own one of them. Purchasing is a larger outlay of cash initially, but over time you will find it to be a very affordable option.
Have you considered a shipping container? If you have property, you can purchase a used shipping container for a couple thousand dollars; drop it on your property and refurbish it into a small warehouse.
Or, if you live in Fort Worth, you can rent a storage container at Box Office Warehouse Suites, a business park where shipping containers are professionally designed, highly flexible, and more affordable than any other warehouse for rent in the city. Many small business owners in Fort Worth are finding that Box Office Warehouse Suites offers the very best opportunity and location for storage container buildings.
Bottom line: if you want to save money, get creative. Do not be limited by tradition.
