HB2: Doubling Down on Austin With a Brand-New Home for Diverse Storage Services

We’re excited to announce the opening of HB2 in April, our newest warehouse facility located just off Harris Branch Parkway in Manor, TX! It might seem like a funny name – what is H, what is B, and what’s the 1st? The story behind HB2 goes back about 10 years and one parking lot over. It’s a testament to our commitment to growth, adaptability, and exceeding the needs of our diverse clientele in the Austin region.

For nearly a decade, our original Harris Branch (HB1) facility has served as a multi-purpose hub, catering to an impressive range of industries and warehousing requirements. From semiconductors and medical supplies to fine art, telecommunications, and energy equipment, we’ve housed finished goods and raw materials. Serving distribution, fulfillment operations, spare parts, and even project storage solutions. It’s always been about versatility.

Our team at Harris Branch has embraced this diversity, constantly adapting the original facility to meet evolving needs. We moved racking, reconfigured spaces, and gradually expanded our footprint within the building until we occupied the entire facility.

However, 2023 brought a realization: while Harris Branch had stretched its wings admirably, the ever-growing demand for our services in the Austin area necessitated a bolder solution.

This is where HB2 enters the picture.

Instead of simply squeezing more into the existing space, we decided to build a brand new, state-of-the-art facility right next door. HB2 represents a doubling down on our commitment to central Texas and the Harris Branch mantra of serving unique needs. It provides much-needed space to accommodate the diverse industries and services we support, allowing us to continue offering the personalized, adaptable solutions our customers rely on.

While we’re proud of our 7 total facilities in the Austin area, Harris Branch holds a special place in our hearts. It signifies our dedication to providing tailored logistics with a high degree of excellence.

Here’s What Makes HB2 Stand Out:

  • Increased capacity: Offering significantly more space than just HB1 alone, allowing us to better serve existing and new clients.
  • Modern design: Built with cutting-edge features to ensure optimal storage conditions and security.
  • Tailored solutions: Just like its sister facility, HB2 is adaptable to meet the specific needs of diverse industries and warehousing requirements.
  • Experienced team: The highly skilled Harris Branch team will seamlessly expand to HB2, ensuring continued expertise and exceptional service for both facilities.

We’re thrilled to unveil HB2 and invite you to join us on this exciting journey! Don’t hesitate to reach out – we’d love to schedule a tour and show you how HB2 can help your business thrive.
