Basically you can run the place with three employees….maybe two.
My 1st job put of college was managing a storage facility. It provided a free apartment and I was able to pay down a huge chunk of all my debt with all the money I saved.

None. I have a burn pile on the back of my property where I dispose of unwanted items. It's lots of fun, too.

My girlfriend is a hoarder. I’m the exact opposite.
I pay for two each month of the biggest ones they have…… to keep my head from exploding.

Among her many other faults, my bat shite crazy ex-wife was a hoarder. At one point, she had 10 storage lockers for all the junk she had accumulated over the years.
Sounds like this is a good area of inquiry on dating apps to sniff out lunatics.
How many storage units do you have?

I had two for a month when we were between closings on a move. When we first moved to LA I had one for a year while we were in an apartment, but moved everything out of it and quit paying the $90 a month to store stuff we weren't using. Gave a lot of stuff away and kept a washer dryer set for when we moved to a house.

The problem is all of us have too much "stuff" these days. We had one needlessly for 3-4 years. After engagement we moved in together from separate houses to 1 bedroom before wedding and put stuff in storage. If I could go back would have sold/donated everything since after the wedding we bought a house and brought almost all new stuff anyway.
One of the best things about living in the middle of a big east coast city for awhile was only keeping what you need/could fit in a smaller living space.

Our family owns storage units (started in 1980 and I am the 3rd generation). When we transitioned to software, we added notes to each customer account to capture the year they first rented and their original monthly rent.
A quick search of the software provided the following info below. The original rental rates and the total amount each customer has paid at original rate only (current rents are obviously much more so the amount paid is even more).
The longest rental that I know of is a customer that originally rented in 1982 and died in 2023 - over 40 years total.
1989 $50 - 21,600
1994 $50 - 18,600
1996 $55 - 19,140
1997 $45 - 15,120
1999 $55 - 17,160
1999 $45 - 14,040
1999 $45 - 14,040
2001 $40 - 11,520
2002 $40 - 11,040
2003 $50 - 13,200
2003 $75 - 19,800
2004 $75 - 18,900
2004 $50 - 12,600
