Storage facility options vary by location. An important part of your operations will be accepting custom cabinet shipments or other large palletized deliveries. You’ll need a climate-controlled facility that has the capacity for an 18-wheeler, and equipment to unload shipments such as jacks or lifts. Make sure the facility has someone who can sign off and check your deliveries for damage.
Owners often accept smaller deliveries at their home. Many use a home office or a finished basement to organize and store doors. Climate controlled garages are ideal when the franchise is starting up. As the business grows, so does the need for additional storage.
