Tips

If you’re a contractor, you’ll know the importance of efficiently managing your tools, equipment, inventory and other materials. But if you lack dedicated storage space, your materials can quickly become disorganized, which can cause delays and added expenses. Renting a contractor storage unit is one of the best and most practical ways to stay organized and present a professional face to your clients. Here’s our guide on why storage space is so important for contractors like you, and how you can choose a unit that meets all of your business needs. Why Should I Rent a Contractor Storage Unit? Keep Your Workspace Organized and Decluttered It’s no fun to work in a cluttered workspace. Not only can it make you less productive, it can make it difficult to find the tools and materials you need for a project. By storing extra items in a storage unit, every job will stay organized and efficient. Protect Your Valuable Equipment Your tools, equipment and inventory are the lifeblood of your business, and you’ve likely invested significant money into them. Leaving them exposed and unprotected can risk them being damaged, vandalized or even stolen. This can be costly for your company, especially if you’re a small business. Storage units offer your business a secure, safe environment. And with climate controlled options available, you’ll be able to keep your equipment safe all year long. Establish a Home Base If you’re a contractor who’s frequently traveling between job sites in the Mount Juliet area, having a convenient, centralized storage location can save you so much time. It can also reduce the hassle of having to haul your equipment and tools back and forth. It’s a Cost-Effective Solution If you’re a small business or an independent contractor, leasing or purchasing office space or a warehouse can be prohibitively expensive. Renting a storage unit is often a far more affordable option, especially if you’re looking for ways to minimize expenses or cut costs. Improve Your Professional Image Customers are more likely to recommend your services to their friends and family if they ...

Vehicle Storage

Mount Juliet is one of the best places in Tennessee to live, work and play. Just a half hour’s drive east of Nashville, our safe, friendly suburb is one of the fastest-growing cities in the state. Whether you’re storing a seldom-used spare car, need a place to park a business vehicle or can’t bear to part with an old car, there’s no better or more convenient place than Mount Juliet to keep it safe. Let’s learn more about all the benefits of car storage, and how you can ensure your car is kept secure and in top-condition – no matter how long you store it. Create More Space at Home If you’re a homeowner with limited space, you’ll know what a pain it can be to navigate around a seldom-used car. Parking multiple vehicles at home can lead to a cluttered garage or driveway – and daily frustration. Parking your car on the street may seem like a better option to get it out of your way, but this leads to other problems. For one, your car is more at risk of damage parked on the street. Some HOAs may even forbid you from storing your car on the street long-term. That’s why storing that seldom-used vehicle in a storage facility is often the most practical solution. Car storage helps free up space at home, helping you keep your garage more organized. Plus, it’ll be easier to park your other cars every day. Top-Notch Security Features Even if you live in a very safe neighborhood, damage can occur. Passing traffic can cause unexpected accidents with cars parked on the street. Leaves, sap, dust and other natural debris from your yard can cause damage to the paint of your car. And unfortunately, there’s always the unlikely chance that an unsecured car may be vandalized or even stolen. No matter where you’re storing your car, chances are, security is one of your top priorities. Luckily, a quality car storage facility offers plenty of features to keep your car safe and protected from ...
