Insurance is for Everyone!

From my years behind the counter of a storage facility, I can not tell you how many times customers have said to me "I don't need to insure that junk!"  Well, when something happens, I can tell you first hand, that is not the same thing they say when you call them with bad news.

If you are renting a unit, PLEASE ask to insure your items.  Many storage facilities can help you find insurance.  If not you may contact your home or renters insurance agent.  You as a customer may be doing everything right to protect your unit.  However if you search Self Storage in the news, you will find that other people may not be doing all they can to protect your items!  From meth labs, to living in units, storage facilities have seen it all.  Tenants have hit the gas pedal instead of the break and ran through another person's unit door!  Storage managers have seen drug busts and fires and trust them when they say often times more than one unit is affected by bad decisions of one renter.  So please take our advice and insure your junk, because if it was truly junk you would not be paying a monthly amount to keep it!
