OcuTrap, the creator of a remote-controlled wildlife trap, experienced rapid growth as cities and conservation groups turned to smarter animal management solutions. Their technology quickly gained traction for offering a more strategic and humane alternative to traditional trapping methods.
With a focus on efficiency, automation, and safety, OcuTrap’s products deliver reliable performance while reducing environmental impact. This combination made them an ideal solution for wildlife agencies looking to modernize their approach.
As demand expanded across the southern U.S., particularly in Texas, the company needed to establish a regional presence. However, that expansion came with a logistical challenge: finding the right space that balanced affordability, flexibility, and functionality. They weren’t just shipping products—they were staging, assembling, testing, and packaging equipment. Their needs spanned both warehouse operations and office work.
The team was seeking a space that would allow them to:
Test and assemble trapping systems in a secure environment
Maintain inventory in a clean, consistent facility
Coordinate remote support and logistics from an on-site office
Keep costs low while avoiding long-term lease commitments
Unfortunately, in fast-growing metro areas like Austin, Texas, warehouse leasing options were limited. Many listings targeted large-scale distributors or offered empty shells requiring costly and time-consuming build-outs. The team explored short-term warehouse rentals, but most lacked utilities or didn’t offer combined office and warehouse space.
Even newer industrial parks catered to high-volume shippers, not specialized tech manufacturers like this wildlife firm. They didn’t need dock doors and forklifts—they needed a clean, smart space to support light assembly and real-time operations.
Frustrated by dead ends, the team came across Cubework’s listings. One facility in the Texas area immediately caught their attention: a flexible warehouse with pre-installed office suites and immediate availability.
Cubework stood out for three key reasons:
Speed to Occupancy – No need to wait for construction or utility installation. The unit was plug-and-play.
Flexible Terms – The company didn’t need to gamble on a five-year lease. The Cubework team offered flex space options that adapted to their needs.
Mixed-Use Layout – This wasn’t just a warehouse room—it included private offices, break areas, and secure storage under one roof.
With Cubework’s help, the team toured the property, discussed layout needs, and signed a lease—all within a week. The quick turnaround allowed them to move their inventory and equipment in under 30 days.
Once in space, they quickly established their operations:
A staging area for trap assembly
A QA station for field-readiness testing
A packaging zone for outbound shipments
A fully functional office for administrative, tech support, and logistics coordination
With Wi-Fi, secure infrastructure, and storage, they built more than space—they built a regional hub.
The facility enabled local hiring, allowing them to grow their Texas team without incurring the costs of standalone construction. This type of office and warehouse combo became the foundation of their regional logistics.
Within less than a month, operations in Texas were fully operational. The company avoided capital-heavy investments, long-term lease risk, and unnecessary overhead. Instead, they:
Secured a warehouse shared space model that reduced idle capacity and cost
Accelerated time-to-market for southern U.S. customers
Created a hub for staging, shipping, and client support
Established regional presence without active friction
The best part? They retained the ability to expand. The Cubework team allowed for flexible adjustments in square footage as demand grew. With no major build-out required, they focused on what mattered: innovation, delivery, and customer service.
Their products may look simple, but they rely on embedded tech, signal response, and durable materials. That means their warehouse storage needs weren’t just about space—they needed cleanliness, efficient layout, and logical workflow.
Cubework’s pre-configured layout enables the team to organize supply, assembly, and logistics in just days. The flexibility of layout helped avoid downtime, which is often a challenge in leased industrial units.
For businesses in this space, scalability is essential. Peak wildlife seasons or the launch of municipal programs can trigger sharp surges in orders. Cubework’s warehousing and fulfillment flexibility meant they could scale into neighboring units if needed, without relocating.
Whether you’re building IoT-enabled pest traps or drone systems, not all warehouses fit the bill. The needs of today’s smart tech manufacturers include:
Shorter lease terms for experimentation and scale-up
Ability to manage returns, repairs, or kitting in-house
Environments that support part storage and partial assembly
Clean, stable workspaces without major retrofits
Move-in-ready warehouse space
Built-in office configurations
Rapid lease execution and onboarding
Options in urban hubs and secondary markets
This helped this wildlife tech company stay agile in a competitive market while minimizing risk.
