How did it all begin?

The first publicly documented self-storage compartments hail back to ancient China where underground pits were used to store and preserve food. In the Middle Ages, the British offered "crating" services for noblemen and dignitaries who were away from home for long periods of time. The crates were kept in guarded stables and were sold by bankers. But the prototype of the modern self-storage units only emerged in the mid-20th century in the U.S. with rows of pre-fabricated metal garage units rented out to individuals who needed extra storage space. Since then, self-storage has evolved where today there are reportedly over 50,000 facilities in the U.S. owned and operated by more than 25,000 entrepreneurs.

Affordable - One of the best aspects of a self storage unit is that they are often very affordable when compared to your other options, such as expansion or relocation, which makes this a cost effective way of storing extra goods when you no longer need regular access to them.

So, it is clear to see that there are some key reasons why people would use a self storage facility, mainly surrounding the security and privacy aspect, but most people would choose a self storage facility mainly because it offers a convenient way of storing things that you do not require immediate access to.

At some point in almost everyone's life, they need to use a storage facility for short- or long-term storage of household or business items. Are all public storage facilities created equal? Heck no.
