Does Your Self-Storage Unit Need Some Junk Removal?

 Sometimes it might seem easier to just to just forget what's in there, abandon the storage unit, and stop paying the rent. However, this is certainly not the best - nor legal - option. Unfortunately, when that does happen, and storage facility managers discover that items have been left behind by old tenants, the task of getting everything removed and hauled away usually falls on them.

If a tenant does abandon a unit full of belongings, the managers may opt to auction the goods if they seem to be valuable. But even then the owners or managers must deal with discarded junk and any items that go unsold at the auction. 

Unwanted Stuff in Self-Storage Needs Junk Removal

According to recent statistics at SpareFoot.com,  there are between 44,149 and 52,000 just in the U.S. And the industry is marked by a few big players and large number of smaller entrepreneurs. Industry ownership breaks down to to 18% of facilities owned by the six largest public companies, 8% owned by the next top 100 operators, and 74% owned by small operators.

The bottom line is that there are more self-storage facilities than McDonald's or Starbucks locations. This means that Americans have a massive and growing need to store stuff! Whether it's because we tend to accumulate more than we can use at the moment, or simply can't bear to get rid of things we don't really need, the fact is that storage facilities are continuing to be built to accommodate the growing need.

The problem for most folks who rent storage units is that they eventually get pretty full. This means that when you do need to get something out, it's difficult to find what you're looking for. Organizing of the junk gets increasingly difficult given the small spaces to you have to work in.

And when that happens it's time to clean out your storage unit and start getting rid of the junk!

Depending on how much junk we're talking about this could become a major chore. In fact, if you are really serious about "downsizing" your storage demands and freeing yourself of clutter and unwanted junk, you might need help.

That's where a professional junk hauling service comes in handy.

But it’s important to find an experienced junk removal company that specializes in this type of junk hauling. And if you're looking to clear out your unit before the rent is due again, quick turn-around is important.

Junk Hauling Services for Self-Storage Owners and Managers

The other side of the self-storage service arrangement is the ownership and management of the self-storage facilities. These folks often find that junk removal is necessary in order for them to keep their units clean and available for rent.

Why is that? Because they sometimes get stuck with the stuff.

If the renter of a storage unit defaults on payments, the storage facility owner or manager is left with the task of clearing out the abandoned unit in order to put it back on the market. An abandoned storage unit full of items that have been left behind represents a loss of revenue for the facility owners.

The good news is that you don't need to miss out on storage rental fees because a storage unit has abandoned junk. And you don't have to take on a difficult and time-consuming task like sorting and hauling all those items yourself.

Whether you are a renter, or a facility manager, letting a professional junk hauling firm quickly haul away the unwanted items will free up a unit for a new renter, or allow current renters to stop paying rent on an unneeded storage unit.
