Setting up storage park
The furniture or self-storage activity cannot be improvised and requires meticulous preparation.
To date, we have supported the creation of 47 storage farms in France, Switzerland, Belgium and Germany, some of which exceed 200 containers on a single site.
Avoid pitfalls, save money and save time by taking advantage of our experience.
We support you in the realization of your self storage park in maritime containers, throughout France, Germany, Belgium, Luxembourg and Switzerland.
Why create a self-storage park?
In 2021, 6 million French people moved into a new primary residence, or 10% of the French population. A shipping container storage facility does not only meet the needs of households when moving.
It also meets the needs of businesses that frequently seek additional storage spaces for their professional activities in order to support their launches or growth.
The maritime storage container can meet different needs such as:
- A new career (transfer);
- A change of school;
- Seasonal, temporary or permanent storage;
- Store your equipment, your tools, or your paper archives;
- Storage of building and industrial equipment.
If your stockyard reaches its maximum capacity, it is time to plan the acquisition of additional containers in order to expand your fleet.
By ordering self-storage units in advance, you guarantee the delivery and installation of equipment to meet demand.
How does Cubner support you in creating your container rental fleet?
Step 1: Selecting your land
Accessibility of the land is important, to increase your visibility, and ensure the rental of your boxes.
It is important :
- that it is located near a main communication route (departmental, motorway, etc.);
- that the access road allows the movement of a heavy goods vehicle to your park;
- that the ground is flat, and that there are no high voltage lines on top (avoid differences in level, so-called stepped ground).
Cubner Tip: We offer innovative features (such as the access management and control tool) to increase the satisfaction of your customers storing equipment in your future storage boxes.
Step 2: installation of containers on your storage farm
We work with you to create the container installation plan on your land, to optimize the quantity of containers and the performance of your activity.
During this stage, we advise you on the type of container, the sizes, the differences between used containers and new containers and the possible options (such as ventilation).
Step 3: completion of the offer and validation of your order
The establishment of your park is complete, you now know the quantity of containers you need to start your box rental activity.
We prepare your offer with your specifications and the best quality container, at the lowest price.
Beyond the offer, a team supports you in your project from start to finish.
Cubner Tip: depending on the quantity and type of container chosen, the manufacturing time can range from a week to several months. Good news ! This period allows you to develop your land, and to start registering pre-requests for rental of storage units.
Step 4: delivery and unloading
