How Much Does Off Site Storage Cost?

Off site records storage pricing depends on a variety of factors like volume, size, additional security or delivery features, provider, and location. However, our partners' paper storage services typically cost 50-95 cents per box, per month. Off site storage can be more affordable than storing in-office. Storage facilities protect your files from natural disasters, theft, and prying eyes while keeping them available to you. Improve efficiency when you eliminate the task of rooting through physical files. Instead, leave it to Record Nations' partners to organize and keep track of retention periods.
