Storage for your dead files

Computers or not, paperwork often has to be kept and our research shows that for most businesses, self storage is the most cost efficient resource. The cost of storing an individual dead file for six years is negligible compared with the cost of scanning or other more "modern" cures to the problem. After all, the your best result would be to store all your dead files in a store in the basement of your office. So let us be your basement! It is the cheapest, easiest and least risky method of file storage we know. Here are the options:

1. Store dead files in your office, either in a dedicated room or just anywhere you can stack the growing number of boxes of dead files. It is ideal but it takes up too much space.
2. Store your dead files with a data management company. Often the headline price appears cheap, but when you look at the associated costs of cataloguing and additional charges for retrieval and delivery they can spiral out of control. (check your bills!)
3. Store dead files at 1st Storage Centres. We will help you arrange your store room into a fully racked archive for all your documents and dead files. The file system can mirror that of your office and your staff can have free access to add or retrieve files any time during our opening hours, thus giving you total control at minimal cost.
