A little blog where I explore packrat
So if everyone in your office got a new cube, that would probably cost tens of thousands of dollars for a modestly sized office. It would have only cost a few hundred dollars to store your office furniture in a self storage unit for a few months and reuse it at the completion of your move. An additional situation where a self storage unit would come in handy would be in the making of bulk purchases. Perhaps it costs one thousand dollars per cubicle if you only purchase one or two cubes, but if you purchase twenty, they are significantly less. If you knew that you would be opening up a new branch of your office soon, you could purchase said furniture in bulk in order to get a wholesale price and store the unused furniture in a self storage money, thus saving a good bit of money in the long run.
