What stage am I at?
A general guide based on pallet volume. Your actual numbers will depend on location, market, and specific needs.
1–20 pallets — Shared pallet storage is most cost-effective. Stay flexible.
Stage 120–60 pallets — Consider dedicated bay space for more predictability and privacy.
Stage 1–260–150 pallets — Dedicated logistics space likely makes sense. Get quotes from multiple warehouses.
Stage 2150+ pallets — Full facility may be worth exploring — but factor ALL costs including insurance, utilities, and staff.
Stage 2–3* Cost ranges are estimates based on South Florida market data. Costs vary significantly by city, market conditions, and specific facility. Always get multiple quotes before making a decision.
How the PalletPort growth path works
📊
01
Know your number
When you're spending $500+/mo on pallet storage, the economics of leasing your own space start to make sense. Use the calculator above to see where you stand.
🔍
02
Find your space on PalletPort
Search PalletPort Full Facility listings for available warehouses in your area. Contact owners directly through the platform — no broker, no commission.
🏭
03
Rent your warehouse
Connect with the owner through PalletPort messages. Negotiate terms directly — monthly, 3-month, or annual. Get your own space, your own dock, your own hours.
💰
04
List your extra bays
You won't fill 100% of your warehouse immediately. List your empty bays on PalletPort and let the platform help offset your lease cost.
📈
05
Grow into it
As your inventory grows, you use more of your own space. As you shrink, you rent more bays out. Total flexibility — you're in control.
Why full facility renters do better
🔑
Your space, your rules
Set your own hours, your own access policies, your own services. No more working around someone else's schedule.
💸
Offset your lease
Rent out unused bays on PalletPort and let your tenants help pay your rent. Many owners cover 50-100% of their lease this way.
🤝
Keep your customers
When you have your own space, you can offer better rates, longer terms, and dedicated service to your best customers.
📦
Add services
Offer receiving, palletizing, pick & pack — services you can't easily offer as a renter. Each service adds revenue.
