Event management companies face many storage challenges, including unsuitable, expensive, and unsafe rentals for event equipment storage. U Can Store’s flexible, accessible, secure, and cost-effective units solve these storage challenges, allowing event management companies to thrive!
Event management companies that offer in-person events are thriving in the wake of COVID lockdowns. The rental of jumping castles and decorations, and the purchasing of custom bakes and floral arrangements, for example, are drastically increasing, so now more than ever is the time to optimise and empower your event company.
More than most other industries, event companies face storage challenges, especially when it comes to seasonal storage. For floral services, where can you store your decor specific to Mother’s Day or Christmas? For an inflatable rental business, where do you keep your summer jumping castles in the rainy season? Disorganised inventory management can drastically impact efficiency, while expensive units decrease profitability.
Making sure you have cost-effective storage solutions that are customisable and flexible means your event management company can flourish in an ever-expensive world. Here, we’ll explore why U Can Store’s event equipment storage units solve storage challenges for event companies, allowing you to optimise, organise, and scale all within budget. So, what are these storage challenges, and how can U Can Store solve them to improve your event equipment storage?
Storage challenges are the biggest roadblock to the success of event management companies. You don’t want your inflatable slide to live next to your desk for six months of the year, or large wedding vases taking up your floral arrangement space in the off-season. Running an event company means you’re dealing with large, or high quantities of items, and this is where U Can Store’s self-storage units offer the cost-effective flexibility you need to get this bulk organised and out the way when you don’t need it. U Can Store offers various unit sizes to cater for anything from one thousand Happy Birthday candles to large marquees. They can be rented on a monthly basis, meaning you won’t get stuck paying for storage when you don’t need it. And even better, all units are easily accessible, customisable to your needs, and secure!
If you don’t have streamlined organisation systems in your storage solution, it can be impossible to keep track of your inventory and have access to items when you need them––especially on short notice. Imagine trying to find that very specific cookie cutter in the shape of a space rocket for Tommy’s birthday in two days’ time if you don’t have things clearly organised and shelved for easy access. And imagine the time it would take! This is the risk you run when you haven’t invested in organised storage solutions. U Can Store’s units are customisable to suit your exact event equipment storage needs, solving a huge storage challenge! Use organisational tools and compartmentalised units so your inventory, large and small, can be stored, labelled, and organised, making inventory management pain free! You’ll operate with more efficiency without the chaos!
Start-up costs for event management companies are high, and it takes time and investment in all the equipment you need. Because of this, it’s risky to leave your inventory vulnerable to theft or damage. That’s why the smart thing to do is invest in secure, off-site storage––maybe even more than one in different locations! U Can Store’s 24/7 security includes secure access control, around-the-clock CCTV surveillance, and responsive 24/7 support to keep your event equipment safe and sound.
All event companies have seasonal fluctuations! Florists might need surplus space during wedding season to store and arrange beautiful bouquets, while inflatable castle companies may need to decrease storage space during busy summer seasons on account of their products being rented out! That’s why flexible leases are the only suitable option for event equipment storage. U Can Store offers both short and long-term lease options, as well as seasonal promotions, allowing your business to scale storage in line with seasonal requirements, solving yet another storage challenge!
Most event companies need easily accessible storage units with space to load and unload inventory. All of U Can Store's facilities are open from 7am to 6pm daily, meaning you can access your event equipment when you need it, even at short notice! Further, keeping your equipment close to your office, home, or frequently used venue across Johannesburg saves you time and petrol––especially when you’re rushed off your feet with multiple events a week! U Can Store also offers on-site forklifts and other transportation equipment to solve logistical storage challenges, making transporting your event equipment easier than ever––just get out the forklift and viola, ready to go!
