Despite many urban myths, Archive storage isn’t neccesarily expensive and in the long term can actually pay for itself. For example, consider the cost of your office space. In London the cost of prime location office space can reach nearly £60 per square foot. Then take into account the space that a filing cabinet or cupboard would consume on the floor, an the space you would need to allow to access that – you are talking at least 5 square feet. Space wise you are now talking £300 per year to store your documents. By using a document and archive storage company you can store your documents in boxes at a cost of around £4.50 a year – a tiny sum in comparison to the space in your office! This also means that you will be able to store more in an archive storage facility – for less! When you archive documents in your office it can be a painful job ensuring that everything is indexed and archived in such a way that it can be easily retrieved. An archive storage company will already have efficient procedures in place to make sure that everything can be accessed within an agreed timescale. An important factor to consider when archiving documents is disaster recovery. What would happen if your office was to burn down, or some other act of God took its toll on your building? Losing historic documents could be the end of your business and could cause a lot of unnecessary stress. An archive storage facility will have procedures in place to help deal with disaster recovery to ensure that your documents are stored safely and securely. It may sound strange, but the cost of outsourcing your document archiving could end up being much cheaper than keeping it on site.
