It’s that time of year when PR agencies and events companies are busy working on the latest brand activation or pop-up shop in London. Preparation needs to start long before the event takes place, so you are ready. Temporary storage offers a fast and efficient solution. From using a single online inventory for your materials to taking an organised approach to packing, we look at simple ways to manage your stock.
How Do You Manage Pop-Up Storage?
Whether you are launching a new brand of footwear or you’re running a retail event, storage space comes at a premium in the capital. Storing your fixtures, POS items, signage, samples, and packaging in an external storage facility on a short-term basis frees up office space.
Placing modular fixtures in a central storage facility, such as folding tables, shelving, garment rails, lightboxes, and plinths, makes it much easier to move between sites. At Stockroom London, we offer a convenient and flexible workspace for you to prepare your pop-up shop, making it quick to assemble. We have lots of experience helping customers store stock and materials for their retail event and we offer a convenient workspace too.
Working onsite at our storage facility, you can easily label everything by campaign, venue, and date. Use colour-coding or numerical references for fast picking and pack-down. A ‘launch kit’ is also useful and should contain essentials like tape, scissors, batteries, extension leads, chargers, price tags, and cleaning supplies. As you will be working to tight time constraints, this helps to ensure nothing gets missed during installation.
Using short-term storage can help with overflow stock and event materials, keeping your pop-up shop visually clean for staff and customers. It’s worth building in a restock process, so you can pre-arrange storage access to quickly replenish materials. Always plan for a fast turnaround by packing items in the order they will be needed on site.
By keeping a single inventory of all your materials, every member of your team knows exactly what’s in storage and what’s on site at any time.
Where Can You Find Temporary Storage for Retail Events?
At Stockroom London, our customers have access to our online inventory for speedy retrieval when needed. We store items for pop-up stores and displays on a temporary basis.
Whether you’re a PR agency, events company or another type of business, our short-term, temporary storage offers easy management of products and merchandise. Stored within a dedicated zone, we can also deliver and collect items to and from our secure CCTV monitored facility.
With our flexible workspace, you can work onsite at our Royal Arsenal Woolwich facility giving you easy access to central London. You can build your pop-up shop or POS stand, organise your materials, and then store any additional items that you don’t need for that particular day. Think of our facility as an extension of your workplace. Depending on your needs, our short-term storage solutions can work for several days or months.
