Commercial storage that works as hard as you do
Outgrown a self-storage unit but not ready for a full warehouse lease? A secure, fully-equipped commercial storage unit is the right-sized middle. Too big for the garage, too smart for a long-term lease.
Inventory & stock storage
Store and organize product on industrial racking, then pick, pack, and ship from the same unit.
Equipment & tool storage
A secure home base for tools, materials, and equipment, out of your garage or truck.
Seasonal & overflow storage
Add commercial storage space for peak season, then scale back when it slows down.
Commercial storage with the warehouse built in
Every WareSpace commercial storage unit comes with what a real operation needs: shared loading docks and HVAC climate control as standard, plus industrial racking, 24/7 secure access, fast WiFi, and power, all in one flat monthly fee with no NNN.

The middle ground between self-storage and a full warehouse
A self-storage locker is cheap but bare. A full warehouse lease is capable but oversized and locks you in for years. Commercial storage at WareSpace is the missing middle: enough warehouse to actually operate from, without the commitment of a full building.

In our Tenants' words
Real WareSpace Tenants on what secure, fully-equipped commercial storage does for a growing business.
“WareSpace has been an absolute game changer for my business. I needed a small, affordable, secure warehouse with a full loading dock, shipping pickup, a conference room, and a community. WareSpace checked all those boxes and more.”
“We went from having 4 storage units to a small warehouse space that worked for us. Plenty of carts and pallet jacks for everyday use, and 24/7 access to the unit is a huge benefit.”
“Awesome place with awesome management! Free WiFi, A/C, dollies, pallet jacks, etc. Way more bang for the buck!”
“A nice, clean facility with great perks and amenities, kitchen/coffee station, loading docks, shipping area, and tons of parking. The General Manager and his team are super friendly and always on-site.”
“We appreciate the loading docks for loading up for daily jobs. There are units of various sizes that make it attainable to have a warehouse at a reasonable price. The community space is always pristinely clean.”
“I've had other storage units in the past, but nothing has compared to WareSpace. I get to pack and ship orders the same day, surrounded by other business owners I can network with.”
“The general manager, Michael Thoma, is great and very responsive to our needs. The facility is very clean and well taken care of, and they work hard to create a nice and friendly work community.”
“Everyone we talk to at the building always makes the point that the manager, Meghan, is great and really helpful. We agree!”
“Krista is always responsive, friendly, and goes above and beyond to make sure everything runs smoothly. Highly recommend for anyone looking for quality rental space with top-notch management!”

How much do commercial storage units cost?
Units start at $1,000/mo, all-inclusive. Here's what that covers, how commercial storage differs from self-storage, and what you can store.
What is a commercial storage unit?
A commercial storage unit is private, business-grade storage space you can actually work out of, not a consumer self-storage locker. A WareSpace commercial storage unit is a lockable 200 to 2,000+ sq ft warehouse space with shared loading docks, HVAC climate control, industrial racking, and 24/7 secure access, so you can store inventory, equipment, and seasonal stock and run the operation from the same place.
How much do commercial storage units cost?
WareSpace commercial storage units start at $1,000/mo, all-inclusive. That one flat fee covers HVAC climate control, shared loading docks, industrial racking, 24/7 access, WiFi, utilities, and amenities, with no CAM charges, no triple-net (NNN) surprises, no personal guarantee, and short 6- to 12-month terms.
How is commercial warehouse storage different from self-storage?
Self-storage gives you a bare, non-climate-controlled locker with no docks, no power to work from, and limited hours. A WareSpace commercial storage unit is real warehouse storage: HVAC climate control, shared loading docks, racking, power, fast WiFi, and 24/7 access, so it doubles as a working base rather than a place to just leave boxes. See the full breakdown on our WareSpace vs. self-storage comparison.
Should I rent a commercial storage unit or a full warehouse?
It depends on how much space you need and how long you want to commit. A full warehouse lease makes sense once you consistently need 5,000+ sq ft and can absorb multi-year terms plus NNN, CAM, and build-out costs. If you've outgrown self-storage but a full building is overkill, a commercial storage unit is the middle ground: a private 200 to 2,000+ sq ft warehouse unit with docks, racking, and climate control built in, on a flexible 6- to 12-month term starting at $1,000/mo. You scale up or down as you grow instead of paying for an empty building.
What can I store in a commercial storage unit?
Businesses use WareSpace commercial storage units for inventory and stock, tools and equipment, materials, furniture and decor, and seasonal or overflow product. Because units are climate-controlled and secure, they suit eCommerce stock, contractor tools, distributor inventory, and more, with industrial racking for real vertical storage up to about 12 feet.
Do commercial storage units have loading docks and climate control?
Yes. Shared loading docks and HVAC climate control come standard at WareSpace, not as pricey add-ons. That makes receiving pallets, protecting temperature-sensitive goods, and moving inventory in and out far easier than a typical self-storage facility allows.
Is there commercial storage near me?
WareSpace operates 20+ buildings across 14 states and is still growing. The fastest way to find commercial warehouse storage near you is to browse our locations or book a tour, and our team will match you to the nearest building and an available unit size.
How do I know if my business is an acceptable use?
Most storage, fulfillment, distribution, and light commercial uses are a fit. A few uses need General Manager approval first, such as last-mile delivery, coffee roasting, or battery storage, and a handful aren't permitted, including auto repair, indoor vehicle storage, food manufacturing, welding or spray painting, and crypto-mining. Tell us what you do and we'll confirm your fit before you sign.
