How North Brisbane Businesses Use Self Storage as Their Business Hub

What if your storage unit came with a fully equipped workspace, meeting room, and hot desk all on-site, all included with your storage, with no additional lease and no lock-in contracts? For a growing number of businesses across North Lakes, Mango Hill, Griffin, Burpengary, Narangba, Petrie, and Redcliffe, that is exactly what they have discovered at StorHub North Lakes. 

The Business Hub at StorHub is redefining what it means to operate a flexible, cost-effective business in North Brisbane, and the results speak for themselves. 

More Than a Storage Facility: What the Business Hub Offers 

The StorHub North Lakes Business Hub is a dedicated on-site workspace available exclusively to StorHub customers. It is designed to bridge the gap between your storage unit and a professional working environment, so everything your business needs is in one place. 

The Business Hub includes: 

• Hot desks providing a clean, professional space to work, plan, and manage your operations 
• Private meeting rooms for client meetings, team strategy sessions, and presentations 
• High-speed Wi-Fi so you stay connected whether you are managing inventory or running a video call 
• On-site parking with easy drive-up access to your storage unit 
• Secure 24/7 access with individual pin-code entry so you can work on your schedule.

All of this sits directly alongside your storage unit, meaning you can move seamlessly between your workspace and your stock, tools, or equipment without wasting time or money. 

Did you know?  Kennards Self Storage North Lakes does not offer an on-site business workspace. StorHub North Lakes is the only self-storage facility in the area with a dedicated Business Hub making it the clear choice for businesses that need both storage and a place to work. 

Customer Spotlight: How RWS Global Uses StorHub North Lakes 

One of the most compelling examples of the Business Hub in action is the story of RWS Global, the world’s largest producer of live entertainment experiences, with clients including Disney, Warner Bros., Apple, and Six Flags. With headquarters spanning New York, London, Cincinnati, and Sydney, RWS Global designs and delivers world-class live shows, theatrical productions, and immersive experiences for cruise lines, theme parks, and major brands worldwide. 

When RWS Global VP of Technology Matthew Byles needed a professional Brisbane base for the company’s Queensland-based remote team, a traditional commercial lease was not the answer. StorHub North Lakes. 

Matthew arranged for RWS Global’s home-based Queensland employees to gather at StorHub for a full day of strategic business planning. What started as a single storage unit, rental quickly evolved into something far more substantial. 

“One unit became two, and two became three. To meet RWS Global’s growing operational needs, the StorHub team worked with them to remove internal walls creating a custom open-plan area that now serves as a working storage zone where product is held, and inventory is monitored, repaired, and repurposed.” 

Combined with access to the Business Hub, RWS Global now has a fully functional Queensland operations base: secure storage for their production assets, a professional workspace for strategy and team meetings, and the flexibility to scale up or down as projects demand. 

“Matthew said that he loves the brand new, clean and modern facility and the ease of working with the StorHub staff to make this happen.” 

— Matthew Byles, VP of Technology, RWS Global 

The Cost Advantage: Why Businesses Choose StorHub Over Coworking 

Brisbane coworking desks currently average $400–$628 per person per month, and that price does not include a single square metre of storage space. For businesses that need both a place to work and a place to store, separate coworking and storage solutions quickly become expensive and logistically complex. 

At StorHub, the Business Hub is included in your storage rental. Whether you have one unit or several, you gain access to professional workspace at a fraction of the cost of leasing a standalone desk or office in Brisbane’s north. There are no hidden fees, no bonds, and no long-term contracts. 

Flexible terms,  StorHub operates on month-to-month agreements no leases, no bonds, no legal costs. Upsize when your business grows. Downsize when you need to. You only ever pay for what you use. 

Who Is Using the Business Hub? Use Cases Across Industries 

The Business Hub works for businesses of virtually every kind. Here is how our North Lakes customers are putting it to work: 

• Ecommerce & online retailers storing stock on-site and using the Hub to manage orders, coordinate fulfilment, and handle returns without the overhead of a warehouse lease 
• Tradies & contractors keeping tools, equipment, and materials in a secure unit with drive-up access, then using the workspace for quoting, scheduling, and admin
