Check the clear height under the roof, the number of loading doors and whether a 40 ft truck can turn in the yard.
- 3
Civil Defence and licence activity
Your trade licence activity has to match the use of the unit, and some goods need Civil Defence approval. Check both before you sign.

Office and staff space
Many units include a small office, toilets or a mezzanine. Ask what is included in the size you pay for.
