My friend owns four locations in different areas in the south east part of the state. I've never talked specifics, but I've heard from other friends that it's a cash cow and he is doing very well.
I know at one location in addition to the normal units there is a local government entity that stores vehicles, a few boats, and other stuff with him.

hey pay to store stuff that costs more money than the value of shite stored.
I feel like eventually people are going to wise up to this fact and it will kill the storage unit industry.
But maybe I'm putting too much faith in people.

Because I can take a chunk of land and turn it into a building that pays close to $1/sqft. Cheap construction costs considering most of them are just corrugated metal, a bit of insulation, and one light bulb per unit. Cheap overhead considering you just have to pay maybe 2 people to stay at the counter and a maintenence man. You can get even more out of it running truck rentals.
Pretty boring business venture but its a reliable source of income if you put it in the right area.

I've been paying on a storage unit in another state for 9 years. Not a damn thing in that unit is worth anything at this point, it is a non climate controlled unit in a place that gets 110 degrees on the regular during the summer.
$55/mo I just light on fire each month.
I've been back to that town at least 10 times, just never wanted to deal with the hassle of cleaning it out and putting all that nasty shite in my nice car.
Planning on getting it taken care of sometime in 2018. I'll bump the thread when I do.

Yes, report back ASAP! I'll be on pins and needles until then!

I put a Storage pod from Attic Plus in my yard for a few months while renovating my garage, clearing furniture out of the house, painting interior, and shoving “stuff” from my house and garage into it.
Big garage sale is planned in March. Whatever is left gets donated and the temp Pod is sent back.
