About Self Storage in Kettering
Kettering's storage and self-storage market is driven by the town's logistics-heavy commercial base and its position as a hub for regional distribution operations. Warehouse-style storage units are widely available across the industrial estates, with sizes ranging from small commercial storage suitable for e-commerce fulfilment operations up to large-scale distribution storage.
Beyond dedicated self-storage facilities in the town, warehouse conversions and shared industrial space offer flexible storage options for business tenants. Storage rents in Kettering vary widely by facility type - self-storage from around £15-25 per sq ft per annum for smaller units, up to £5-7 per sq ft for larger warehouse-based storage arrangements.
The town's A14 access makes it particularly viable for businesses requiring nationally-accessible storage for goods distribution. Container storage and secure outdoor storage yards are also available at several industrial estate locations, supporting trade and construction sector occupiers.
Business character
Kettering's commercial economy is anchored by logistics and distribution, thanks to the A14 corridor providing east-west road connectivity between the M1 and East Coast Main Line. Major regional distribution centres for national retailers and third-party logistics operators cluster around Telford Way Industrial Estate and Kettering Venture Park.
Beyond logistics, the town has a strong manufacturing base including RS Components (electronics distribution, HQ'd nearby) and Weetabix (Burton Latimer, adjacent). Growing sectors include professional services, technology, engineering, and food production. The North Northamptonshire Council area continues to attract commercial investment across all sectors.

Market context
Kettering's commercial market is characterised by strong logistics tenant demand - the A14 corridor continues to attract major distribution occupiers, with several build-to-let developments currently underway. Warehouse rents in the 20,000-100,000 sq ft range are competitive with comparable Midlands locations. Office availability skews toward smaller professional units, with the town centre benefiting from recent regeneration investment. Industrial land availability remains constrained, driving up capital values for freehold plots.
