Co-warehousing splits one large industrial building into private, lockable suites — typically 200 to 6,000 sq ft — while pooling the expensive infrastructure: loading docks, forklifts, pallet jacks, HVAC, WiFi, and carrier pickups. Miami's options run from Palletized CoWarehouse in Doral (month-to-month, shared equipment included) to Coworkware's Wynwood conversion (400-6,000 sq ft, 4 dock doors) and WareSpace Medley (200-2,000+ sq ft all-inclusive from ~$1,000/mo). It's the middle tier between a $300/mo storage unit and a $5,000/mo industrial lease.

The model in one line: private suite + shared infrastructure + short lease.
- Private, lockable space: your own suite, sized to your inventory — not a shared shelf, a real room with a door.
- Shared equipment: dock doors, forklifts, pallet jacks, receiving areas — infrastructure a small business can't justify alone.
- All-in pricing: flat monthly fee covering utilities, HVAC, WiFi, and amenities — no NNN/CAM surprise charges.
- Short terms: month-to-month to 12 months, vs the 3-5 year industrial lease that locks a growing business.
Typical Miami use cases: e-commerce brands past the garage stage, importers needing PortMiami-proximate space, distributors running last-mile delivery, event/equipment companies, and FBA sellers who outgrew a 10x20. See our FBA prep guide for the e-commerce-specific comparison.

When to Choose Each
- Self-storage wins when you need under ~300 sq ft, occasional access, or a sub-$500 budget. For pallet-scale needs on a budget, our pallet storage guide shows the drive-up workarounds — but note most storage facilities prohibit running a fulfillment operation from a unit.
- Co-warehousing wins when you need dock access, pallet handling, daily carrier pickups, or 400+ sq ft — but can't commit to a multi-year lease or $60K+ in annual rent. The sweet spot is the business doing 50-500 shipments/week.
- Industrial lease wins when volume is high and stable — at some point ~$3,500/mo in co-warehousing costs more than the equivalent raw space. Our warehouse space guide covers when that crossover happens.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does co-warehousing cost in Miami?
Warehouse suites start around $1,000/mo for ~200 sq ft (WareSpace Medley's all-inclusive rate) and scale to $3,500+/mo for multi-thousand sq ft suites. Everything is typically bundled: docks, HVAC, WiFi, equipment, common areas.
What's the difference between co-warehousing and a storage unit?
Scale and infrastructure. A storage unit is a box — no dock, no forklift, no shipping infrastructure. Co-warehousing gives you a private suite inside an operating warehouse with shared docks, forklifts, and daily carrier pickups. Storage caps out around 300 sq ft; co-warehousing starts at 200.
Is co-warehousing month-to-month in Miami?
Mostly — Palletized CoWarehouse in Doral advertises month-to-month; WareSpace runs 6-12 month terms. Either beats the 3-5 year minimum on industrial leases.
Where is co-warehousing located in Miami?

Can I run an e-commerce business from co-warehousing?
Yes — that's the core use case. Daily carrier pickups, receiving at the dock, and shared handling equipment are built for it. Some providers (Palletized) also offer fulfillment and FBA prep services on-site.
Is co-warehousing cheaper than a storage unit?
Per square foot at scale, often yes — but the minimum (~$1,000/mo) is 3-10x a storage unit. Below ~200 sq ft of need, a storage unit is cheaper; above it, co-warehousing delivers infrastructure storage can't.
