Flexible and affordable storage space for companies
Stop paying for rigid, long-term leases and unused space. Michael K., owner of an e-commerce company, writes: “For years, we wasted money on a storage space that we only really used in the high season. Thousands of francs were literally going out the window every month.”

Business storage for every industry
Storage for e-commerce: grow flexibly with your online store
Black Friday, Christmas sales or sales, with our flexible storage space you are well prepared. Expand your storage space exactly when your business needs more space. In quieter times, simply switch to a smaller storage unit - so you only pay for the space you really need. Stay competitive with fast delivery times from a storage location near you.

Storage for craftsmen: organize your materials cleverly
Peter, a carpenter from Zurich, relies on three, well-distributed storage rooms instead of one large hall. “In the morning, I get exactly the material I need for the day. No more long searches and overcrowded shelves.” The result: two hours saved every day.

Storage for retail: stay seasonally flexible
A toy retailer from Bern uses our storage space precisely for his needs: “Before the Christmas season, we simply rent more space, and after the season it gets smaller again. That really saves us costs - almost half compared to before.”
Archives for service providers: professional and secure
Whether you're an architecture firm, real estate agent or law firm, placeB is a modern and secure way to archive your documents. One Zurich law firm particularly appreciates: “Everything is perfectly air-conditioned and we can access our documents at any time.” By the way: Did you know that there are strict retention requirements for documents in Switzerland?
Flexible storage space: Make more out of your storage space
Save costs through efficient use of space. At placeB, we see every day how our customers save up to 50% of their costs with well thought-out organization of their storage space.
Use the full height of your storage space. With the right shelving systems, you can use every centimeter up to the ceiling. An investment that pays for itself after a short time.
This way you get more out of your storage space:
- Rely on mobile shelving that can be moved
- Move light items up, heavy items down
- Keep an overview with a storage plan
Organize your storage space according to access time:
- Frequently used goods at the entrance
- Regularly used items in the middle area
- Store rarely used goods at the back
- Label everything clearly and find what you are looking for immediately
A wine shop in Basel shows how it's done: “We used to spend ages looking for the right products. Thanks to clear labeling and a good plan, we can find the right wines immediately.”
