Storage space
Storage space is commercial real estate used to house inventory, equipment, raw materials, or finished goods pending shipment or sale. It is distinct from production or workshop facilities and typically requires minimal specialised infrastructure beyond security, weather protection, and basic access control.
Common forms include standalone warehouses, compartmentalised units within industrial buildings, climate-controlled facilities for sensitive goods, and multi-storey storage centres. Rental rates depend on location, loading facilities, clear height, and proximity to transport networks. Users range from retail chains and logistics providers to small businesses requiring overflow capacity.
