How Much Does It Cost To Build 5000 Sq Ft Warehouse?

Rigid-frame buildings run $15-$25 per square foot, so you’ll be looking at $65,000 to $130,000 for a 5000 square foot structure.

If you’re wanting a finished and enclosed building, those will run about $25-$38 per square foot. If your building is on the more complex end, these structures can run up to $50 per square foot, but that’s not as common.

For an enclosed and finished building with 5000 square feet, you’ll be looking at $125,000 to $170,000, but it can go up to $250,000 if your building has any special circumstances.

Warehouse Cost By Size And Square Feet

The average costs for building a warehouse are $25 per square foot for the shell building. For small warehouses of 40 by 60 ft, the prices can be as low as $160000. However, for big warehouses of about 50000 square feet, the prices shoot up to $3,425,000. The price is affected by the size of the warehouse, type of materials, delivery costs, and construction methods.

Below is a rough estimate of the costs on warehouses based on size and price. We sourced the following data from Strong Building Systems.

DIMENSIONS	SQUARE FEET	TURNKEY ESTIMATE
40×60	2,400	$170,000
50×60	3,000	$203,500

100×400	40,000	$2,700,000
100×500	50,000	$3,325,000
100×1,000	100,000	$6,650,000

The shell building consisting of a concrete slab base costs about $25 per square foot, whereas the steel building framework from $9 to $14 depending on the gauge of steel used for construction. The costs in the table above are inclusive of land and grading. If one can obtain land and grading for significantly lower prices, it will decrease overall construction costs.

Costs To Build A 5000 Sq Ft Warehouse

Warehouses under 5,000 Sq Ft usually cost close to the shell (building, concrete, and assembly) price of $25-$38 per square foot because they tend not to include things like industrial lighting, up-scale ventilation, industrial HVAC, and office build-outs. If all of those things are included, it will cost $65-$80 a square foot on average.

A turnkey 50×100, or 5,000 sq ft, warehouse will cost around $332,500 plus land and grading, but a number of factors affect the cost.

The shell (building, concrete slab, and erection) will cost approximately $140,000 or $25 per square foot.

The steel building will usually run you between $9-$15 per square foot, or $55,000-$92,000.

A 5,000-square-foot building is a decent size for a small to lower-medium-sized business.

Steel Structure

Types of commercial construction

Commercial construction includes a wide range of building types. Essentially, commercial construction boils down to almost any project that isn’t purely residential in nature.

Common examples of commercial projects could include office buildings, malls, schools and universities, sports stadiums, hotels, entertainment venues, and parking structures.

Even apartment buildings, full of residential spaces, are considered commercial projects. Most states consider residential projects as single or multi-family structures under three or four units. States generally consider structures outside of that scope as commercial construction projects.

Cost To Consider

Various costs encompass the construction costs of a warehouse. These are hard costs, soft costs, financing costs, and operational costs.

Hard Cost

Hard costs are all the cumulative expenses directly linked to the physical construction. They are the foreseeable construction costs. Some of these costs are labor and materials. As much as these costs appear easily predictable, they fluctuate depending on the market conditions. Other hard costs include site development, grading, and landscaping.
Financing Cost

One of the most critical construction costs is financing costs. Most clients finance their projects using loans. Owners, therefore, need to carefully assess anticipated costs and weigh whether they are receiving good value for money from their lender's loan. There are three types of financing in warehouse construction.
Long-Term Cost

These refer to the ongoing costs such as maintenance, utility bills, and upkeep. These costs dramatically fluctuate over the lifetime of a project. For instance, you can reduce your electricity bills by upgrading and insulating your warehouse. The upfront costs will be high, but in the long run, your monthly fees reduce. Other long-term expenses include property management, taxes, and insurance.
Concrete Foundation Cost

A concrete foundation supports all warehouses. They are not uniform concrete slabs like the ones an average house has. The concrete foundation is anchored with a rebar to support the structure from wind and seismic activity. Concrete slab foundations cost about $6 per square foot.
