Small or growing companies don’t always have the capital to invest in premises and office equipment, especially when they don’t know how quickly their business might expand. Even an established business with a largely mobile workforce won’t always require permanent desk space for all staff. The flexible workspace industry offers many of the resources required to support businesses of all sizes in today’s dynamic markets. And phs Teacrate is delighted to be involved by supplying crate rental through its partnership with the Flexible Space Association.

Serviced offices, managed offices, co-working spaces, and meeting and conferencing accommodation can all be found via the FlexSA, as well as virtual office options, including call answering, mail forwarding, secretarial services and legal resources. phs Teacrate joins a catalogue of other suppliers, including furniture, marketing, IT and utility providers, who help these businesses make the most of their workspace, however long they are in residence. Since 1989, the Flexible Space Association has been supporting all suppliers involved in the provision of these facilities which allow businesses to expand, downsize or relocate, quickly and without financial penalty, while still providing a professional and effective service in a huge range of different industries.

Operating in this manner can actually increase productivity by encouraging businesses to interact as much or as little as they want to generate innovation and entrepreneurship while benefitting from shared resources and the reduced costs of a collective office space. The FlexSA also provides information on regulations and up-to-date industry news that will allow all member businesses to abide by guidelines while providing these co-operative workspaces and services, as well as capitalise on the changing marketplace.

phs Teacrate fits perfectly alongside other FlexSA suppliers by providing a reliable and flexible crate hire service with our range of crates available to rent on a week-by-week basis. Our clever barcode system allows crates to be tracked via a mobile app while in transit so that location information is always at the fingertips, and loss can be reduced. This is ideal for any businesses with valuable assets and one less thing to worry about for organisations that move premises regularly.

The wide range of specialised crates on offer from phs Teacrate can also provide reassurance that valuable assets are being handled correctly during transit. Computer crates, flat screen computer crates and suspension file crates can all be securely sealed during transfer or storage. The rigid construction of all phs Teacrate crates ensure that they are both resilient, safe to stack and can be washed and reused, again and again, keeping environmental impact to a minimum.

The FlexSA and phs Teacrate are a perfect match in that both organisations provide the ultimate in flexibility – one with office space, the other with crates and handling equipment – to ensure that businesses only use resources where and when they need them, cutting costs and maintaining productivity. Both also have a national coverage with FSA’s handy online office finder able to match businesses with local resources, while phs Teacrate’s seven strategically located depots and fleet of 30 vehicles ensure next day delivery of crates, handling equipment and packaging throughout the UK.
