What is co-warehousing?
A: Co-warehousing is a flexible space solution that divides a large warehouse up into smaller, more manageable units designed for entrepreneurs and small businesses. We handle the stressful stuff like overhead, utilities, and property management. You enjoy the benefits of all the warehouse amenities with flexible agreement terms, and the simplicity of one simple monthly payment. Co-warehousing with Shift is like moving into a big, friendly neighborhood of businesses, without any of the headaches of traditional industrial space.
How does Shift differ from traditional industrial space?
Traditional industrial space can be rigid and complex, but not Shift. We provide warehouses and workspaces with agreements as short as three months, so you have room to grow. All our amenities are included in one simple monthly fee. Plus, we take care of those annoying details like utilities, maintenance, security, and more. We make it easy so you can focus on growing your business.
What types of spaces does Shift offer?
At Shift, we offer private warehouses and workspaces. Our private warehouse spaces range from 200 to 5,000 square feet, and our dedicated offices come fully furnished. As a member, you’ll have access to loading docks, conference rooms, break rooms, and common spaces. We’re excited to have you visit. Let us know if you’d like to book a tour.
