#1: Saltbox

Address: 4700 Eisenhower Ave, Alexandria, VA.

Saltbox is the best warehousing option in Alexandria for product brands that would rather not spend a first quarter converting an empty box into a working warehouse.

A shell space anywhere else on this page gets you a floor and a set of doors, and not much beyond that.

Everything that makes the floor useful becomes your project: sourcing and installing racking, wiring a packing bench, negotiating carrier pickups, finding someone to sign for freight, and renting a photo studio across town every time you launch a SKU.

Our co-warehousing solution hands you a private locked suite with all of that already standing, and trained help on the floor for the weeks your order count runs ahead of the people you have.

The smallest suite runs 70 sq. ft., the largest passes 5,000 sq. ft., and every size between them bills by the month with nothing annual or quarterly signed.

Full disclosure: Yes, Saltbox is our co-warehousing solution. We’ll provide an unbiased evaluation of what makes our spaces the best warehousing solution in Alexandria.

Here’s what an Alexandria membership puts at your disposal once the door closes behind you: 👇

Four suite sizes, with room to move between them

Four warehouse suite sizes are available at Alexandria, and moving between tiers tracks whatever your order count does.

The bill stays monthly for as long as you want it that way, and nobody is going to ask you to sign for multiple years.

The four sizes break down as follows:

  • Small, 70 to 250 sq. ft.: 4 to 15 pallets, 1 to 2 employees. Perfect for solopreneurs and smaller teams needing dedicated space.
  • Medium, 250 to 500 sq. ft.: 16 to 31 pallets, 1 to 4 employees. Great for small businesses with room for growth.
  • Large, 500 to 1,000 sq. ft.: 32 to 62 pallets, 1 to 10 employees. Ideal for growing teams with expanding dreams and inventory needs.
  • Extra Large, 1,000 to 5,000+ sq. ft.: 63 to 125 pallets, 1 to 50 employees. Excellent for large teams requiring extensive storage and workspace.

➡️ Not sure which size is best for your use case? You can book a tour, and our representative will help you select the right warehouse for your needs.

Still deciding whether you need a suite?

At $99 a month, the Virtual plan covers a professional business mailing address and mail handling. Scale, at $349 a month, unlocks the building itself from 6am to 11pm, receives up to 100 packages and 10 pallets a month, and puts our lowest carrier rates behind unlimited on-site pickups.

What a lease price never covers

A locked room holding your inventory is where the membership starts, and everything below is the part a small team normally has to go buy from four or five separate vendors:

  • Carrier pickups: skip the post office and just leave your packages in the outbound bins to ship faster and later.
  • Mail and package receiving: Saltbox staff receive your packages and store them securely, so you are not the one who has to be standing at the dock when the truck shows up.
  • S.O.S. (Saltbox Operations Support), $45 an hour in 15-minute increments at a flat rate across every location, booked in the Saltbox App. Scope it to receiving and put-away, container breakdown, inventory counts, pallet wrapping and staging, shelving and racking builds, or a suite reset before a restock.
  • A content studio in the building, so a SKU launch does not send you hunting for a rented photo space.
  • Professional-grade equipment on the floor to support your operations, plus onsite printing services.
  • In-suite power at 120V.

The rest of the building is yours too: working hours access and 24/7 security with onsite staff, reserved parking option, conference rooms, a fully equipped kitchen and community space, and high-speed Wi-Fi.

This is what the shipping side looks like day-to-day: 👇

Discounted carrier rates through Parsel

Parsel is our shipping app partner, and the membership includes it at no extra charge.

The integration reaches national, regional, and emerging carriers, and orders can ship as late as 4:30 PM.

How does Saltbox compare to a traditional 3PL?

A 3PL takes physical custody of your inventory: it moves to their building, and their staff handle it on their floor.

Plenty of brands are well served by that.

The cost of it is that nobody you have met packs the box your customer opens, and a mistake gets corrected through a support queue.

Co-warehousing lands between the two:

  • Control: you hold the key, so recounting stock or reworking how a box gets packed needs nobody's sign-off and nobody's calendar.
  • Visibility: your orders get packed on the floor you work on, so a wrong label gets caught before the pallet moves.
  • Flexibility: pack everything in house, pass a share of it to our floor team, or buy hours to clear one heavy week, with none of it committed ahead of time.

Fulfillment members get a direct point of contact and can see picks per hour, error rate, and volume inside the Saltbox App.

Brands that want out of fulfillment altogether can hand the operation to Saltbox Fulfillment, which runs from your suite on SOPs written for your brand, priced from $3 per pick and from $45 per hour on projects.

How do you get started with Saltbox in Alexandria?

To get started with Saltbox in Alexandria, you’ll first need to select your membership tier, then choose your warehouse size (optional), and then select your office size (optional).

Here are the three tiers:

  • Virtual: $99/month, a fully virtual membership for brands that need a professional mailing address (mail only, no packages) and access to our Upstream Entrepreneurs Club community.
  • Scale: Starting at $349/month, which includes physical access to our locations, loading dock, packing stations, meeting rooms, and a content creation studio, without requiring a warehouse suite.
  • Warehouse: Custom pricing, which includes flexible warehouse and office suites built for product-based brands, with shipping equipment, on-site operations support, and modern amenities.

Alexandria prices each tier as follows:

  • Starter Warehouse, from $702/month when you pay annually: 70 to 250 sq. ft., 4 to 15 pallets, 1 to 2 employees.
  • Small Warehouse, from$3,150/month when you pay annually: 250 to 500 sq. ft., 16 to 31 pallets, 1 to 4 employees.
  • Medium Warehouse, from $5,175/month when you pay annually: 500 to 1,000 sq. ft., 32 to 62 pallets, 1 to 10 employees.
  • Large Warehouse, from $8,280/month when you pay annually: 1,000 to 5,000+ sq. ft., 63 to 125 pallets, up to 50 employees.

Included with every suite:

  • Loading docks to handle large deliveries and shipments.
  • Carrier pickups plus staffed mail and package receiving.
  • Professional-grade equipment to support your operations.
  • Conference rooms for meetings and client presentations.
  • A content studio for audio and visual production.
  • High-speed Wi-Fi throughout.
  • A fully equipped kitchen alongside community space.
  • Around-the-clock surveillance and security measures, with on-site staff and support.
  • 120V power inside the suite, plus printing services onsite.

Office rentals are quoted separately, and these are the Alexandria figures:

  • 1-person office: $653/month when you pay annually for 1 chair and 1 desk.
  • 2-person office: $923/month when you pay annually for 2 chairs and 2 desks.
  • 3-person office: $1,305/month when you pay annually for 3 chairs and 3 desks.
  • 4-person office: $1,665/month when you pay annually for 4 chairs and 4 desks.

➡️ Paying monthly commits you to nothing beyond the month. A twelve-month prepayment cuts 10% from the rate (i.e., the figures above), and a six-month prepayment cuts 5%.

Saltbox pros and cons

✅ Inventory, order packing, and product photography all happen at 4700 Eisenhower Ave.

✅ Nobody else has a key, and you decide whether your team packs the orders or ours does.

✅ A month-to-month invoice, and no signature that spans years.

✅ Access to Parsel's carrier pricing, which is hard to match negotiating as a single shipper.

✅ Hourly labor you can add for a spike in orders and drop once it passes.

✅ 13 locations nationwide for multi-location distribution.

✅ A-Z operations: you can receive on the dock, shoot in the studio, pick and pack in the suite, and be back to the dock.

❌ We will never be the cheapest, and we don't want to be.

#2: WareSpace

Best for: Trades, makers, and self-fulfilling ecommerce sellers who want a locked unit and a single monthly invoice.

Locations: 950 S Pickett St, Alexandria, VA 22304, one of 23+ buildings WareSpace operates nationwide.

Source of image.

Behind one door at 950 S Pickett Street, you get a private warehouse unit of 253 to 2,874 sq. ft., delivered as a spec suite that is move-in ready with no build-out and no setup fees.

A single monthly rent on a 6- or 12-month term puts WareSpace closer to the Saltbox model than anything else on this page, with racking and an on-site manager already in the 93,687 sq. ft. building.

Amenities and benefits

Source of image.

  • Loading docks with drive-in capability and dock-height receiving, industrial racking in every unit, plus shared pallet jacks, hand trucks, dollies, and dock gear.
  • One flat monthly rent covering electricity, water, gas, high-speed Wi-Fi, property taxes, building services, daily maintenance, 24/7 access, and unlimited use of conference rooms, the kitchen, and warehouse equipment, with no CAM, no setup fees, and no after-hours surcharge.
  • Daily UPS, FedEx, and USPS pickups built-in, alongside an on-site general manager who receives packages and coordinates vendor access during business hours.

Pricing

Units start under $1,000/month, and terms run 6 or 12 months.

Source of image.

Pros and cons

✅ Electricity, water, gas, property taxes, and daily maintenance are all inside the rent figure.

✅ Tour, sign, and move in the same day, with both listed spaces available now.

❌ A 6- or 12-month commitment, so this is not billed by the month.

#3: 611 S Pickett St

Best for: High-volume distributors and light manufacturers with a fit-out budget and 40,000 sq. ft. of demand to justify it.

Location: 611 S Pickett St, Alexandria, VA 22304.

Source of image.

Total availability at 611 South Pickett Street reaches 58,218 sq. ft., the largest figure anywhere on this page, split between a 16,926 sq. ft. unit and a block running 20,646 to 41,292 sq. ft.

Both arrive as shell space inside a 110,454 sq. ft. building from 1963, which puts the entire fit-out cost on whoever signs.

Amenities and benefits

Source of image.

  • 58,218 sq. ft. of total availability, taken as a 16,926 sq. ft. unit, a 20,646 sq. ft. half, or the full 41,292 sq. ft. block.
  • 12 drive-in bays, one exterior dock door, and cross docks, in a masonry building on a 4.97-acre lot.
  • A 24-foot clear height in the features table, with the listing highlights and property overview both describing 25 feet.
  • 192 standard parking spaces, city water and sewer, and I zoning covering light industrial zoning and uses.

Pricing

Ask on the 16,926 sq. ft. unit is $20.50 per sq. ft. per year, the highest figure on this page, against $18.50 on the larger block.

That prices the smaller unit near $28,900 a month with 30 days to occupancy, and a full 41,292 sq. ft. take near $63,660 a month on a 5 year term, open now.

Source of image.

Pros and cons

✅ The deepest single block of space on this list at 41,292 sq. ft.

✅ Cross docks plus twelve drive-in bays to keep trucks cycling.

✅ Parking for 192 vehicles, the highest count among the Alexandria leases here.

❌ Shell space on both units, so every dollar of fit-out is yours to spend.

#4: Pickett Industrial Park

Best for: Anyone needing a finished showroom and office front attached to open warehouse from day one.

Location: 841-881 S Pickett St, Alexandria, VA 22304.

Source of image.

Suite 865 at Pickett Industrial Park comes with an open showroom in front, one private office, a break room, a conference room, and two private restrooms already built ahead of 19,072 sq. ft. of large open warehouse.

Amenities and benefits

Source of image.

  • Large open warehouse with three loading dock doors, plus drive-in and dock-high loading bays with levelers across the property.
  • A 246,145 sq. ft. three-building park built in 1970, with clear heights between 18 and 24 feet and two points of access to S Pickett Street.

  • Approximately 130 surface parking spaces, with Van Dorn Plaza around the corner for household-name retail brands including Safeway, BJ's Wholesale Club, and CVS.

Pricing

Suite 865 carries a $19.00 per sq. ft. per year ask on a 5 year term, open now, so 19,072 sq. ft. lands around $30,200 a month.

As the listing puts it, the lease rate does not include utilities, property expenses or building services.

Source of image.

Pros and cons

✅ Showroom, private office, break room, and conference room already built out at the front of the suite.

✅ A Metro station under a mile away, which helps when you are staffing a shift.

✅ Distributors can reach 40% of the U.S. population in just one day's drive from the park.

❌ A 5-year term with no shorter option published.

#5: 6636-6672 Fleet Dr

Best for: Tenants chasing a long runway on sublease terms without signing directly with the landlord.

Location: 6636-6672 Fleet Dr, Alexandria, VA 22310.

Source of image.

The sublease at 6648-6652 Fleet Drive runs to August 2031, an unusually long runway for space taken over from a sitting tenant.

Its 18,069 sq. ft. is in excellent condition and includes 1,200 sq. ft. of dedicated office space, and the furniture and sales counter can remain, if desired.

Amenities and benefits

Source of image.

  • 18,069 sq. ft. of industrial space including 1,200 sq. ft. of dedicated office, served by three loading docks and one drive bay.
  • Racking can be purchased from tenant, so the storage system does not have to be bought new.
  • A 20-foot clear height inside a 112,108 sq. ft. masonry building from 1977, on 6.01 acres with a wet sprinkler system.
  • Across the whole building, there are 20 exterior dock doors, 16 levelers, six drive-in bays, and 60 standard parking spaces, at what the listing calls an outstanding central distribution location to Northern Virginia and D.C.

Pricing

At $14.75 per sq. ft. per year, 18,069 sq. ft. bills near $22,210 a month, and the sublease holds that rate through August 2031 with the space open now.

Property expenses, building services, and the utility bill all fall to the subtenant.

Source of image.

Pros and cons

✅ Only two listings on this page beat $14.75 per sq. ft. per year.

✅ Office space, furniture, and a sales counter already in place, with racking available to buy from the sitting tenant.

✅ Space is in excellent condition and available now.

❌ A sublease means the runway ends with the prime lease in August 2031, not on a schedule you set.

#6: 410-420 Calvert Ave

Best for: Last-mile and light industrial users who need an industrial address close to Arlington and D.C.

Location: 410-420 Calvert Ave, Alexandria, VA 22301.

Source of image.

Industrial zoning has grown scarce around Potomac Yard, and the listing for 410-420 Calvert Avenue calls it a rare industrial-zoned site in the Alexandria market.

The 14,902 sq. ft. floor is delivered as full build-out with approximately 1,000 sq. ft. of integrated office space, and it opens on October 1, 2026.

Amenities and benefits

Source of image.

  • 14,902 sq. ft. delivered as full build-out, including 1,000 sq. ft. of dedicated office space inside a 32,815 sq. ft. building from 1955.
  • Two oversized drive in doors available, with the features table listing four drive-in bays and four exterior dock doors.
  • A fully sprinklered facility for enhanced safety compliance, on a 0.53-acre lot with county water and sewer.
  • Convenient access to U.S. Route 1, I-395, and the D.C. metro area, in a transitioning corridor near Potomac Yard redevelopment, with the strongest public transit score of any lease here at 70 out of 100.

Pricing

The ask runs $18.00 per sq. ft. per year on a negotiable term, placing the 14,902 sq. ft. floor near $22,350 a month once it opens on October 1, 2026.

The quote covers rent alone, so utilities and the building and property charges are added separately.

Source of image.

Pros and cons

✅ Full build-out on what the listing calls a rare industrial-zoned site in the Alexandria market.

✅ A negotiable term, which few of the larger leases on this page offer.

✅ The strongest public transit access of any lease here, useful for a shift you need to staff.

❌ Occupancy waits until October 1, 2026.

#7: Vine Street Complex

Best for: Budget-first tenants who will trade building size for the cheapest rate per sq. ft. on this page.

Location: 5509 Vine St, Alexandria, VA 22310.

Source of image.

At $11.50 per sq. ft. per year on its first two floors, Vine Street Complex carries the lowest posted rate anywhere on this page.

The all-brick three-story flex warehouse backs directly to I-495 just outside the limits of Alexandria City, and its first floor can be taken anywhere from 2,000 to 6,000 sq. ft.

Amenities and benefits

Source of image.

  • 14,000 sq. ft. across three floors, with the first floor divisible from 2,000 sq. ft. and the upper two delivered at 6,000 and 2,000 sq. ft.
  • Four exterior dock doors, two drive-in bays, and 20 standard parking spaces at a 17,487 sq. ft. building from 1988.
  • Three minutes to I-495 by way of the Van Dorn Street interchange, and a three minute drive to the Van Dorn Street Metro Station.
  • A full build-out on the second floor, I-5 zoning, and clean, modern interiors behind the all-brick cladding.

Pricing

The first and second floors are both posted at $11.50 per sq. ft. per year, and the third floor is posted at $17.00.

The first floor runs on a 3-year term, while the upper two are negotiable, and all three are available now, so a 2,000 sq. ft. take on the first floor works out to roughly $1,917 a month.

Source of image.

Pros and cons

✅ Two of the three floors go for $11.50 per sq. ft. per year.

✅ A 2,000 sq. ft. floor, the smallest slice any lease on this page will cut.

✅ Freeway and Metro access both about three minutes away.

❌ The building totals 17,487 sq. ft., which caps how far a tenant can expand in place.

#8: 5751 General Washington Dr

Best for: Storage-heavy operations that need tall racking and a large finished office in the same space.

Location: 5751 General Washington Dr, Alexandria, VA 22312.

Source of image.

5751 General Washington Drive carries a 24-foot clear height, 40-foot by 40-foot column spacing, and a 6-inch warehouse floor.

The 11,593 sq. ft. floor is in excellent condition and includes 2,930 sq. ft. of dedicated office space.

Amenities and benefits

Source of image.

  • 24-foot clear ceiling heights suitable for high-capacity storage, on 40-foot by 40-foot column spacing over a 6-inch warehouse floor.
  • Two loading docks with load levelers and a drive-in option for operational flexibility, out of eight exterior dock doors across the building.
  • 2,930 sq. ft. of dedicated office space and 73 standard parking spaces at a 49,896 sq. ft. reinforced concrete building from 1979.

Pricing

No figure is published here, so the ask arrives on request against a 5 to 10 year term, with the floor open now.

Triple Net Expenses carry an estimate of $3.80 per sq. ft., which comes before the utilities and building services a tenant also absorbs.

Source of image.

Pros and cons

✅ Tall clearance and wide column spacing, which together make a racking plan straightforward.

✅ A finished office of 2,930 sq. ft. and parking for 73 vehicles.

✅ I-5 zoning covering light manufacturing, warehousing and distribution, contractor services and R&D.

❌ No posted rate, and Triple Net expenses add an estimated $3.80 per sq. ft. on top of whatever it turns out to be.

❌ 5-10-year term required.

#9: 6584-6600 Fleet Dr

Best for: Wholesale and trade suppliers who sell from a counter while shipping out of the same unit.

Location: 6584-6600 Fleet Dr, Alexandria, VA 22310.

Source of image.

Whoever takes 6586-6588 Fleet Drive inherits a built-out showroom, three bathrooms, and a conference room inside an endcap unit.

Its 10,291 sq. ft. of warehouse and showroom comes as a sublease from the current tenant that expires on 12/31/2027, with 2,600 sq. ft. of that total finished as dedicated office space.

Amenities and benefits

Source of image.

  • 10,291 sq. ft. of warehouse and showroom including 2,600 sq. ft. of dedicated office space, with second floor mezzanine office space above it.
  • An endcap position with a built-out showroom, three bathrooms, and a conference room, plus retail exposure from Fleet Drive.
  • A 20-foot clear height on partial build-out, inside a 46,463 sq. ft. masonry building from 1977 on 2.49 acres, with a dry sprinkler system and electric heating.

Pricing

Rate on the unit is $15.50 NNN per sq. ft. per year, putting 10,291 sq. ft. near $13,290 a month.

Occupancy takes 120 days against a sublease ending 12/31/2027, with the usual exclusions applying to the base figure.

Source of image.

Pros and cons

✅ The showroom is already built out, and the bathrooms and meeting space came with it.

✅ 2,600 sq. ft. of dedicated office on the floor with mezzanine office space above.

✅ Showroom frontage with retail exposure from Fleet Drive.

❌ The sublease expires 12/31/2027, so occupancy after a 120-day wait leaves well under two years of runway.

#10: Build America 5

Best for: Service-based and light industrial teams of 6 to 20 sizing an entry-level flex unit with showroom frontage.

Location: 5641 General Washington Dr, Alexandria, VA 22312.

Source of image.

Build America 5 closes the list with the smallest total availability among the leases here, 6,000 sq. ft. of flex space configured front-to-back across a main floor and a mezzanine.

The two spaces must be leased together, and the mezzanine above carries three private offices along with a kitchenette.

Amenities and benefits

Source of image.

  • 3,600 sq. ft. on the first floor and 2,400 sq. ft. on the mezzanine as one contiguous area, with a mostly open floor plan layout that fits 6 to 20 people.
  • An open warehouse environment with one restroom and a large showroom flex space on the main level, then three private offices, three restrooms, and a kitchenette above.
  • Double door loading access, fluorescent lighting, city water and sewer, and electric heating inside a 44,582 sq. ft. masonry building from 1982.

Pricing

Both spaces together go for $13.00 per sq. ft. per year on a 5 to 10 year term, open now, which is a flat $6,500 a month across 6,000 sq. ft.

The listed lease rate is charged plus a proportional share of utilities.

Source of image.

Pros and cons

✅ $6,500 a month for the whole space, before the utilities share.

✅ Three private offices, a kitchenette, and showroom space across both levels, already finished.

✅ The building carries twelve drive-in bays, and signage options are available.

❌ A 5- to 10-year term on a 6,000 sq. ft. footprint.

Frequently asked questions

Can I switch 3PLs without pausing fulfillment?

Yes. The parallel-run method lets you migrate inventory and orders to a new provider while your current 3PL continues to fulfill. The key is sequencing the move by SKU, starting with slow-movers, and setting clear rules for which provider handles which orders during the overlap.

How do I calculate my true cost per order with a 3PL?

Request a fully itemized invoice and add up every fee that touches a single order: pick fee, pack fee, materials, carrier rate, and any applicable surcharges. Divide that total by your order count for the period. Don't use your quoted rate as the baseline. Use the actual invoice.

How does co-warehousing differ from a traditional 3PL?

Co-warehousing differs from a traditional 3PL in that it gives small businesses direct access to their inventory, flexible terms, and on-site resources.

How is Saltbox different from a traditional 3PL?

Traditional 3PLs give you access to shared fulfillment infrastructure on their terms. Saltbox is a co-warehousing model, which means members get private warehouse suites they control, an on-site team that's physically present, and access to Parsel, Saltbox's shipping platform partner, for discounted shipping and real-time tracking. 


The model is built for founders who want the support of a fulfillment partner without giving up visibility and control. Read more here about how Saltbox compares to traditional third-party logistics providers

How long does it take to switch 3PL providers?

Most 3PL transitions take between 30 and 90 days, depending on your order volume, SKU complexity, and contract notice requirements. A 60-day timeline using the parallel-run method is the most common approach for mid-volume operators.
