Self-Storage Business

I know what you’re thinking. How can “glamour” and “self-storage” be in the same sentence, let alone in the same title? Simple! Well-known players in the entertainment industry need storage units just like anyone else would rent. I’ve taken calls from customers from all walks of life, and the thousands of calls I have taken include inquiries from representatives of BET, MTV, MGM, and Comedy Central.

But these television stations have studios and warehouses, so what why did they need us? Consistently, it was for on-site filming that required a more convenient location to store equipment—instead of lugging everything back to their respective properties. Convenience is the top reason people choose a self-storage facility, and this further proves the point. Although I haven’t actually spoken with any celebrities, at least I can tell folks that MTV called me at work today!
