A deep clean of your warehouse and a mock photoshoot showing off what you can do with the space should do the trick. <em>If you skip these steps, you&rsquo;re not likely to attract many event planners in the beginning.&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"3-parking-garage\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">#3: Parking Garage<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Depending on the location of your warehouse, it could be just what people are looking for&ndash; and something they&rsquo;ll pay handsomely for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In major cities, parking is sparse and inconvenient. By offering your empty warehouse as a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.neighbor.com\/storage-blog\/luxury-car-storage\">parking garage<\/a>, you can collect parking fees on a regular basis without having to do virtually anything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All you need is to decide how you&rsquo;re going to collect payments, plus hire a security guard to watch the lot during warehouse business hours.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You could also consider running the lot as a private parking center where customers pay a yearly membership to get access.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"4-self-storage-space\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">#4: Self-Storage Space<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Opening your warehouse to renters in need of storage space is a simple solution to unused warehouse space.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Using a platform like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.neighbor.com\">Neighbor&rsquo;s peer-to-peer marketplace<\/a>, you can list your warehouse space, and the entire management process will be set up for you. Neighbor will connect you with renters looking to store their vehicles or their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.neighbor.com\/storage-blog\/inventory-storage\/\">business inventory<\/a> in your warehouse space. Before long, you&rsquo;ll be able to collect rent each month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Depending on the size of your warehouse, you could collect a sizable chunk of money each month using your warehouse as a storage facility. The best part? There will be virtually zero upkeep.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"5-fitness-center\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">#5: Fitness Center<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whether to lease out the space for another business or to open your own, a large enough warehouse space can be the perfect place for a fitness facility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The main thing you&rsquo;ll need to keep in mind is that your warehouse&rsquo;s location will likely determine how much walk-in traffic you get vs. how much you&rsquo;ll need to advertise online.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>If your warehouse is deeper in a business district away from major streets, you&rsquo;ll need to be smarter about how you advertise<\/strong> to get the word out about your facility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<html><body><div id=\"2_in_post\">\n    <a href=\"https:\/\/www.neighbor.com\/host\" onclick=\"rudderanalytics.track('press editorial cta button', {location: 'second in post', version: '2.0'}, () =&gt; { console.log('track call'); });\">\r\n  <div class=\"second-in-post-cta\">\r\n    <section>\r\n      <div class=\"service-option\">\r\n        <h2 id=\"earn-1000s-per-year-with-your-unused-space\">Earn $1,000s per year with your unused space<\/h2>\r\n        <button>Become a Neighbor host<\/button>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n    <\/section>\r\n  <\/div>\r\n<\/a>\n  <\/div><\/body><\/html><h3 id=\"6-mma-training-gym\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">#6: MMA Training Gym<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img  decoding=\"async\"  src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABAQMAAAAl21bKAAAAA1BMVEUAAP+KeNJXAAAAAXRSTlMAQObYZgAAAAlwSFlzAAAOxAAADsQBlSsOGwAAAApJREFUCNdjYAAAAAIAAeIhvDMAAAAASUVORK5CYII=\"  alt=\"\"  class=\" pk-lazyload\"  data-pk-sizes=\"auto\"  data-pk-src=\"https:\/\/lh7-us.googleusercontent.com\/FHhq3kXfboUWIlmngino2kT4xWjfmjB2d7iIvxan6tQZzAB857eVgXf4OUfU1pt9TioWjuNQt8eiLUCYIS1ziq9EpUPYC052U6q_4YjcXzHQiAcI5Qd1b8IZdEKIq1oJZmtKa9S893-1-N3u4jMjX_A\" ><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Similar to a fitness center, MMA training gyms and other martial arts centers can oftentimes be found in warehouses and other large facilities that are adapted for use.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The main difference between a fitness center and an MMA gym is the time structure. <strong>MMA centers are often structured around classes and training sessions<\/strong> and so can be open during set hours (and closed during others). <strong>Typical fitness centers are expected to be open most hours of the day.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you have an empty warehouse space you&rsquo;re looking to rent, adapting it into a kickboxing or MMA gym could be the way to go, especially if you have a passion for MMA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"7-art-exhibit-venue\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">#7: Art Exhibit Venue<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Believe it or not, your warehouse could be used as an art exhibit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Art exhibits are traditionally held just about anywhere&ndash; <em>outside, in an office building, a museum, or even a warehouse.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If your warehouse is located in a major city center, you could be raking in a hefty profit every month&ndash;that is, if you can position your warehouse as a special exhibit center for artists and organizations.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Similar to what we suggested with the event center, however, make sure to do a mock photoshoot. By taking pictures of the space when it&rsquo;s decorated, <em>as if an art exhibit is about to take place,<\/em> event planners will see the space&rsquo;s potential. These photos may even be the deciding factor and convince local event planners to rent your warehouse space.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"8-indoor-skatepark\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">#8: Indoor Skatepark<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Skaters have often been shunned from skating on public property at places such as parks and outdoor malls. Hence, the skatepark was born.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You&rsquo;ll occasionally see smaller skateparks connected to city parks. However, larger skateparks with ramps and half pipes tend to be located in warehouses because they&rsquo;re the only type of facility with enough space (and height).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you&rsquo;re a skater at heart (or you&rsquo;re simply familiar with your local market and you know skating is big near you), turning your warehouse into a skatepark could be highly profitable. Not only can charge per entry, per day, but many customers will come back on a regular basis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"9-indoor-climbing-gym\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">#9: Indoor Climbing Gym<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Indoor climbing is more popular than ever. But you&rsquo;ll need a large space to build the kind of climbing walls typically seen in climbing gyms.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That makes an indoor climbing gym yet another great option for using your warehouse space.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And similar to a fitness or MMA gym, your warehouse can be located just about anywhere. Customers are typically willing to drive a small distance for a good climbing gym, as these facilities are limited.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If there isn&rsquo;t already a good climbing gym in your area, or you simply have a passion for indoor climbing, consider converting your warehouse into a climbing gym.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"10-boat-and-rv-storage-facility\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">#10: Boat and RV Storage Facility<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img  decoding=\"async\"  src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABAQMAAAAl21bKAAAAA1BMVEUAAP+KeNJXAAAAAXRSTlMAQObYZgAAAAlwSFlzAAAOxAAADsQBlSsOGwAAAApJREFUCNdjYAAAAAIAAeIhvDMAAAAASUVORK5CYII=\"  alt=\"\"  class=\" pk-lazyload\"  data-pk-sizes=\"auto\"  data-pk-src=\"https:\/\/lh7-us.googleusercontent.com\/1nsBglaJXPyL4qosLbCxSReCr9cliMHAli3RNN1vQL_7JUZBJPcVstFPgzuc8So-BGPLcEiS6tqoyzbjY-P_kMxbmcSM9ZHQw5wzGoE6PZVETavNcOXtOnz6M_gpjllInDx3N1gVk3jO-WTSSUCwVe0\" ><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Boat and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.neighbor.com\/storage-blog\/how-to-start-an-rv-storage-business\/\">RV storage<\/a> businesses can be highly profitable.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The only issue?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You need a lot of space to store boats and RVs, so it takes a big initial investment to build the facility that will store them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>That&rsquo;s<\/em> your advantage. You already have the space, whether it&rsquo;s for boats or RVs, or both.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is a great investment opportunity because RVing and boating are highly seasonal, meaning recreational vehicle owners are used to putting their vehicles away for long periods. <strong>That means many months of collecting rental payments.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"11-recording-studio\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">#11: Recording Studio<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While you don&rsquo;t need an entire warehouse for a recording studio, warehouses are great because of their natural insulation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you have a decent section of your warehouse available, especially a section with office space, you can likely build a full recording studio.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You will need to invest in recording equipment and soundproofing the space, but if you&rsquo;re a musician yourself, you&rsquo;ll likely find the investment well worth it (far beyond the revenue you&rsquo;ll generate from renting it out).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"start-generating-revenue-from-your-warehouse-space\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Start Generating Revenue from Your Warehouse Space<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are countless businesses you can run from a warehouse and even more ways to make money using your extra warehouse space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When evaluating what business idea is right for you,<strong> factor in more than just demand and profit<\/strong>&ndash;also <strong>consider the initial time and monetary investment<\/strong> to get your business up and running.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The easiest and most direct way to profit from your extra warehouse space is to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.neighbor.com\/host\/rent-my-warehouse\">rent it out to others<\/a> looking for self-storage, whether it be for their inventory, smaller personal belongings, vehicles, a boat, or something else altogether.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With a peer-to-peer marketplace like Neighbor, you can safely and easily find renters who will pay you to use your space.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Learn <a href=\"https:\/\/www.neighbor.com\/host\">how to become a Neighbor host here<\/a> and find out how to generate passive income with your extra warehouse space.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"If you own an empty warehouse&ndash;or have unused space in the warehouse that you currently operate your business&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":43,"featured_media":11881,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"csco_singular_sidebar":"","csco_page_header_type":"","csco_appearance_grid":"","csco_page_load_nextpost":"","csco_post_video_location":[],"csco_post_video_location_hash":"","csco_post_video_url":"","csco_post_video_bg_start_time":0,"csco_post_video_bg_end_time":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[205],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-11880","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-business-operators","cs-entry","cs-video-wrap"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.4 -
