Need warehouse space in Albany? Here’s what you actually need to know, including pricing, what affects it, and where to lease based on your business needs. No vague promises. Just clear info so you can act fast.

Why Companies Lease Warehouse Space in Albany

Leasing gives you control without the long-term cost or commitment of buying:

  • Quick move-in – Most spaces are available within weeks.
  • Lower upfront cost – No down payment, no maintenance, no ownership headaches.
  • Flexibility – Lease what you need now. Adjust later as operations shift.

Albany Warehouse Lease Rates

Warehouse leases in Albany generally range from $5.75 to $9.50 per square foot per year, depending on size, condition, and features.

Estimated pricing by size:

  • Under 10,000 sq ft → $8.00–$9.50 PSF/year
  • 10,000–50,000 sq ft → $6.75–$8.25 PSF/year
  • 50,000+ sq ft → $5.75–$7.00 PSF/year

Smaller spaces and renovated buildings cost more. Larger footprints and older properties offer better value.

What Impacts Your Lease Rate

Several factors affect warehouse pricing in the Albany area:

  • Size – Smaller spaces typically have higher per-square-foot rates.
  • Condition – Newer or upgraded buildings rent higher.
  • Features – Dock access, clear height, HVAC, and fenced yards drive pricing up.
  • Lease term – Short leases cost more. Multi-year terms often reduce rates.

Top Submarkets Around Albany

These areas offer the most activity and availability for warehouse leasing:

  • Albany (Central): Smaller spaces near city limits. Often used for local service or fulfillment needs.
  • Menands / Colonie: Close-in locations with access to mid-size inventory. Popular with logistics and trades.
  • Guilderland / Rotterdam: Lower pricing and more space for bulk storage or light manufacturing.
  • East Greenbush / Rensselaer: Limited availability, but well-positioned for regional delivery. Often newer builds.
  • Schenectady: Affordable options across various sizes. Good for startups or overflow storage.

Why Most Businesses Lease Instead of Buy

Buying ties up cash and slows you down. Leasing keeps operations flexible, gets you in faster, and leaves room to scale without long-term risk.

I just wanted to let you know that I selected one of your vendors as our fulfillment house. They can do what we need and we’re looking forward to working with them. They can handle our “special projects” fulfillment, which was key to our decision in bringing them onboard. I appreciate this service. It was great for our company.

I didn’t know there was so much difference in fulfillment companies — this was my first time in need of this sort of service. After a Google search I luckily stumbled upon WarehousingAndFulfillment.com. They saved me an incredible amount of time and money. Within minutes I had a couple of emails from good companies that fit my situation. I am very appreciative of their help.

Warehousing and Fulfillment was the perfect matchmaker in finding us a fulfillment partner. They provided several great options, all of whom were very responsive and willing to take the time to talk through our needs. We ended up going with W&F’s top match and we couldn’t be happier. I highly recommend W&F, particularly to anyone whose business relies on a strong fulfillment partner.

We were having multiple issues with our 3PL fulfilling warranty replacement parts. Our company needed to make a change and make one fast. I reached out to WarehousingAndFulfillment.com to facilitate my search for a reputable, service oriented 3PL that can handle the demands of a highly seasonal business to pick, pack and ship parts quickly. I received several qualified 3PL leads that matched what we were looking for and we found a great partner.
