As a landlord, managing multiple properties can be challenging. From maintaining your rentals to storing furniture, something always needs attention. That’s where self-storage comes in handy. 

At The Self Storage Company, we understand the unique needs of landlords and offer tailored solutions to help you streamline your property management.

How Landlords Can Benefit from Self-Storage

One of the biggest benefits of self-storage for landlords is flexibility. Whether you’re renovating a property and need regular access to tools, dealing with a vacant period, or need to store excess furniture and appliances, a storage unit provides a convenient solution. 

Here are 5 relatable tips for landlords about benefiting from self-storage:

“Transform Your Empty Property into a Blank Canvas”

Store furnishings and personal belongings during viewings to help prospective tenants visualise the space. A tidy, decluttered property typically lets faster and can command better rates.

“Keep Your Refurbishment Projects Moving”

Rather than stuffing tools and materials into your properties, use a storage unit as your project base. Having an organised space for equipment keeps renovations on track.

“Set Up Your Property Management Hub”

Use your storage unit as a central base by storing spare keys, paperwork and maintenance supplies in one secure spot. With free WiFi, you can manage tenant enquiries on-site.

“Safeguard Your Investment During Void Periods”

Instead of leaving valuable furnishings in empty properties, keep them secure in a storage facility with CCTV and alarm systems. This minimises risk during vacant periods.

“Cut Costs with Seasonal Storage”

For furnished or holiday lets, rotate seasonal items through your storage unit instead of cluttering properties. This keeps your properties looking fresh whilst protecting unused items.

Our range of storage unit sizes at The Self Storage Company means you can easily scale up or down as your needs change, without being tied into expensive long-term contracts.

Declutter and Stage Properties Effectively

First impressions matter when attracting tenants. A cluttered property can be off-putting to viewers and may even lower the rental value.

Using self-storage means you can remove excess items and create a clean, spacious environment that appeals to potential renters. Using self-storage for personal items or clutter left behind by a previous tenant allows you to stage your properties effectively and showcase their full potential. 

Secure Storage for Furniture and Valuable Items

As a landlord, you may have valuable items that you don’t want to leave in unoccupied properties for risk of theft. The state-of-the-art security at our self-storage facilities, including 24/7 CCTV and individual intruder alarms, ensure that your possessions are kept clean, dry and protected in a self-storage unit. 

Our business storage services at The Self Storage Company offer landlords and property owners peace of mind when managing multiple properties and valuable assets.

Streamline Property Maintenance and Renovations

When undertaking renovations or major maintenance work, having a nearby storage facility can be a game-changer. You can safely store furniture, appliances, tools and building materials.

Our convenient self-storage solutions at The Self Storage Company protect your items from damage but also allow tradespeople to work more efficiently and benefit from easy access to tools and materials. Staying organised with a storage unit during a renovation project can reduce time and cost.

Manage Seasonal Items Efficiently & Create Space for Tenants

Landlords of short-let furnished properties or holiday homes may need to manage seasonal items throughout the year, such as garden furniture or holiday decorations.

Using self-storage services, rather than cluttering up your rental properties or your own home with these items, can keep your properties tidy and allow you to rotate items as needed.

Manage Your Property Business

For landlords managing multiple properties, a self-storage unit can serve as a central hub for your business. Use it to store spare keys, important documents, and maintenance supplies. Having everything in one safe and secure location can save you time and hassle when dealing with tenant requests or property emergencies.

Free Wifi throughout our self-storage facilities also means landlords can benefit from a safe and secure place to handle all online tenant enquiries and organise viewings. 

A Cost-Effective Solution for Landlords

Renting a self-storage unit can be more cost-effective than alternatives like warehousing or leasing a large physical premise. With flexible self-storage plans and no long-term commitments, landlords will benefit from cost-effective solutions. 

At The Self Storage Company, you only pay for the space you need and how long you need it. Discover our range of self-storage unit sizes and reduce overall property management costs.

We also offer an innovative self-storage app, that allows you to manage your account, pay invoices and handle any storage emergencies.
