From basement repairs to 50% growth in 12 months, how Skrrrt Scooters scaled with flexible warehouse space

Skrrrt Scooters started in a rented basement, then a shared storefront, then a 10x40 workshop. Each space had the same problem: someone had to be physically present to receive customer drop-offs.

Managing utilities across multiple locations made everything harder, and traditional leases locked Mak into spaces that were either too small or too big.

The intercom system solved his biggest headache: customers buzz themselves in and drop off scooters without anyone on-site, and a courier uses a code to pick up scooters every Wednesday.

All-inclusive pricing covers rent, utilities, and WiFi in one payment, while 24-hour access and the freedom to change unit sizes sealed the deal.

Just over a year in, business grew roughly 50%. Mak added technicians because the space and systems supported it, and an upgrade to a bigger unit took about a week with no lease renegotiations.

A building full of motivated business owners added unexpected motivation and accountability.
