If your company is on the hunt for warehouse space at the moment, you may find that space isn’t as easy to find as it once was. Industrial real estate availability fell to its lowest level in almost 20 years at the end of 2018, and it’s expected to continue to fall moving forward. The e-commerce boom that has taken place in recent years has made it almost impossible for developers and builders to keep up with the rising demand for warehouse space.
It’s forcing many companies to get creative when it comes to finding places to put all their inventory. Moreover, there are some companies that are actually going as far as to rent mobile trailers to use as temporary storage spaces. These trailers, which are typically placed on the back of trucks during the shipping process, are being set up in different parts of the country to supply companies that can’t find warehouse space with somewhere to keep everything they need to store.
Mobile trailers are obviously not a long-term solution for the problem that is plaguing many of those companies that operate within the e-commerce world. At some point, they’re going to need to get access to warehouse space if they plan to continue to grow. But for now, these companies are finding that mobile trailers will do the trick when they need to obtain storage space. They’re proving to be especially useful for those companies who need to stock up their inventory for holidays, promotions, and more.
