Common questions about commercial property to rent and for sale in Selby.
Selby mainly offers practical industrial space: warehouses with roller-shutter access, light manufacturing units, workshops, storage space and trade-counter premises. The area suits businesses that need central Johannesburg access, where movement onto the M2 and Main Reef Road matters more than a corporate office finish. Stock varies by building, from older functional sheds to refurbished units with improved offices, yards and loading.
Across the Selby warehouse and industrial properties we currently list, net asking rentals run R40 to R101 per m² (10th to 90th percentile), with a median of R53 per m². On a gross basis, including rates and levies, the typical figure is about R55 per m². Selby remains a cost-sensitive industrial node, so the final rate usually depends on warehouse condition and access as much as the headline rental.
Yes. Selby is a practical fit for logistics, distribution and light manufacturing because it gives businesses an established industrial setting near the Johannesburg CBD, with access to the M1 and M2 routes. The main checks are property-specific: yard depth, loading configuration, truck circulation, power supply and whether the building’s older industrial layout suits the operation. For heavy manufacturing or high-volume fleet movement, Selby can work, but only where the site has the right access, turning space and services.
Across the Selby warehouses we currently list, eaves at 1.0 to 12.0 m reflect a wide spread, with mixed-grade stock ranging from low-clearance units to taller warehouse boxes. For loading, no dock levellers are recorded in our listed stock, so tenants should verify roller-shutter height, yard depth, truck turning and on-grade access during the viewing.
Selby generally competes on central Johannesburg access and value. Across our listings, net asking rentals are R40 to R101 per m² (10th to 90th percentile), median R53, with gross around R55 per m² including rates and levies. Compared with nearby industrial nodes, it suits price-led industrial users that need workable warehousing, dispatch access and proximity to the CBD more than estate-style logistics environments. The trade-off is older urban stock and more variable yard, loading and office finishes, so tenants should judge each building on truck movement, power, parking and lease economics.
Tenants in Selby should expect industrial-oriented power supply to be available in many buildings, with three-phase capacity commonly relevant for warehousing, light manufacturing and workshop uses. The actual load varies materially by property, especially between older facilities and buildings with tenant-specific upgrades. Before committing, a business should verify the available amps, transformer capacity, metering arrangement and any scope for power upgrades with the landlord or municipality.
Selby generally suits businesses that need practical truck access into older industrial premises, with yard configurations varying by property from shared circulation areas to more usable dedicated yard space. Access is strongest where the site has clear gate widths, direct loading positions and fewer internal columns or tight turning points, especially for companies moving stock between Selby, Booysens and the M2. For larger vehicles, the key inspection items are turning radius, loading-door height, yard depth and whether trucks can enter and exit without reversing onto the street.
Selby gives industrial tenants central Johannesburg access without moving into a peripheral logistics park, with quick reach to the M2 and M1 routes for deliveries across the inner city, south, west and east. The area suits workshop, storage, light manufacturing and distribution users that need functional industrial space, yard access and proximity to established supplier networks. Its main trade-off is an older, practical stock profile, which can be an advantage for businesses that prioritise access and operational flexibility over newer park-style accommodation.
Selby’s main drawbacks are older industrial buildings, tighter yards and more constrained loading than newer logistics parks, so it can be awkward for tenants needing high-clearance warehousing, large truck circulation or extensive yard operations. Access to M2 and M1 routes is useful, but local streets can feel tight for heavy vehicles, especially where deliveries compete with inner-city traffic. The area suits practical, cost-conscious operators, but businesses needing a modern corporate park environment, expansion land or a cleaner showroom profile may find Selby’s urban industrial fabric limiting.
Contact Anvil Property Smith and ask for the broker covering industrial space in Selby. We will confirm suitable options, arrange access with the landlord or managing agent, and walk you through the practical fit for your operation, from yard access to truck movement and lease terms.
