337. How We’d Set Up a Storage Facility from Scratch (Complete Playbook)
This is how to run a storage business successfully if you’re starting from scratch.
Closing on your first self storage investment is a big deal—but it comes with a lot of questions: What management software should I use? What types of locks are best? How do I track competitor prices? How do I handle the auction and lien process if someone doesn’t pay?
It’s easy to get overwhelmed and resort to handling everything yourself, which often leads not only to a bad storage business but also to severe burnout. It doesn’t have to be like this, so today, we’re sharing our entire self storage tech stack—everything we use to run our self storage facilities (remotely!) so you can have a successful first, or next, self storage investment.
We’ll give you everything—management software, lock systems, lien automations, call and customer service providers, website hosting, and other recommendations. If this is your first self storage facility, this information could be the difference between you scaling fast or falling behind.
