This was the best business decision I made all year. Being a member at The Loading Dock 1053 has been a great experience since day 1. The space is set up intelligently to support a very productive work space while also supporting a feeling of community for the members. There are so many member events every month as well and delicious food too! I enjoy the coffee and kombucha daily as well :) It's an awesome place to work.

A really cool spot. Went here for a training, and had lunch at the Humming Bird. Parking was easy.

My experience with the Loading Dock was fantastic. The facility offered everything we needed for our conference--and then some! The staff was friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. Our conference came off seamlessly (and since we have them quarterly, I can say that that rarely happens!) If I lived in Raleigh I would seriously consider becoming a member of the Loading Dock community.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Whether you're a day pass holder or a monthly member, you can access most amenities. Meeting rooms do require prior scheduling, and private offices are reserved for those with subscriptions. However, the lounge, kitchen, and breakout spaces are open to all. Complimentary services are also available regardless of membership tier, while ancillary services can be purchased separately or negotiated with The Loading Dock.

  • Coworking spaces typically have limited storage options, most of which are reserved for members with dedicated desks or private offices. With that said, it’s best to contact the coworking operator directly via the form on the right side of the page to learn about available storage options.

  • Yes, you can certainly take a tour of the space before signing up for a membership. In fact, it’s encouraged, to help you get a feel for what your workday will look like. Reach out here to set up a time to come and see the space.

  • The open desk is the way to go if you’re looking for a flexible workspace in an open environment where you can socialize with other members. Or, choose a dedicated desk if you want a designated space that also allows you to keep in touch with the community.

    A private office works wonders if you or your team need a quiet, secluded space to conduct your work and interact with people in your organization.

    It’s important to understand the different types of coworking arrangements available to you, depending on the type of work that you do and its duration, and whether you’re a solo worker or part of a team.

  • Absolutely. Flexibility is one of the best parts of coworking. Most coworking memberships are month-to-month, so you can quickly adjust your space preferences according to your unique requirements and the size of your team. Whether that means upgrading the space or downsizing it or even completely changing the type of coworking subscription that you use, you always have the option to adjust as you go.

    It may be possible to adjust your membership before current membership ends, but you will have to discuss and negotiate directly with The Loading Dock, who is more than happy to help out.
