Running a successful bouncy castle and inflatable business like BouncyWouncy comes with its own set of challenges, especially when it comes to storing all the equipment. For Mark, the owner of BouncyWouncy, finding a safe, reliable, and cost-effective storage solution was essential for his growing business. Six months ago, Mark made the smart decision to store his inflatables at National Self Storage in Kent, and the results have been fantastic.
Let’s take a closer look at how container storage has helped Mark streamline his operations and grow his business.
The Challenge: Space for Seasonal Stock
BouncyWouncy specialises in hiring out bouncy castles and inflatables for events, parties, and festivals across Kent. During the busy summer months, Mark’s business thrives, but when the off-season arrives, he’s left with bulky inflatables that need to be safely stored until the next peak season. Storing these items at home or in a small warehouse wasn’t ideal, as they require a lot of space, need to stay in good condition, and have to be easily accessible when business picks up.
Mark needed a flexible, secure storage solution that could accommodate his seasonal stock while allowing him quick access to his inflatables whenever required.
The Solution: Container Storage at National Self Storage
After searching for local storage options, Mark decided to store his inflatables with National Self Storage in Kent. The flexible container storage offered by National Self Storage ticked all the boxes for Mark:
-
Space: The storage containers provided ample room to store multiple inflatables, from large bouncy castles to smaller event items. Mark found he could store everything he needed in one place without worrying about overcrowding.
-
Convenience: Located in Kent, the storage facility was perfectly placed for easy access. Mark can quickly pick up and return equipment when needed, ensuring his business runs smoothly, even during unexpected bookings.
-
Seasonal Flexibility: During peak months, Mark can easily rotate stock in and out of the container, ensuring the most popular inflatables are ready to go at all times. In the off-season, he can securely store everything without paying for unnecessary space or worrying about equipment damage.
The Results: A More Efficient and Profitable Business
Since storing his inflatables with National Self Storage, Mark has seen several benefits for his business:
-

-
