Question by Greg: What does a personal self storage address look like?
If you could not receive packages at your home, and had a storage locker you could receive them at, would your self storage address state that it is a storage locker within the address, for example, 123 Wilcox Drive SL, (SL meaning STORAGE LOCKER), like a private mailbox says PMB for private mailbox. Thanks in advance.

It really depends on the self storage company. Some do mention a locker in the address, whilst others don’t. I suggest you speak to a few local storage companies and ask for the address that best suits you. If they want your business I’d expect them to be flexible.

Answer by Mr. Smartypants
All the ones I’ve seen are pretty much the same.

I would look for two things.

(1) Water tightness. Look for water damage. I think some of these places don’t maintain their roofs as they should, so you see water damage on the ceilings and walls. I’ve heard people complain that their stuff was damaged by water. and

(2) Security. You want to see a security gate to get into the place, plus good locks on the individual lockers or rooms. And managers living on-site. Theft is also a big problem.

Question by re19g79al: What amenities do owners look for at a boat storage facility?
This question is for all the boat owners out there who regularly trailer their boat to a public launch site. Beyond the normal expectations of a storage facility such as security, cleanliness, and ease of access, what amenities do boat owners want to see at a dry, open lot storage site? Water? Electricity? Detail area?

Please provide what you would expect to see at a “full service” boat storage facility.

In most boat storage facility there are few if any amenities. The purpose of the storage is to have a place to safely and legally park one’s boat. They never supply electricity (at least not in my state). They pick up trash and keep the lot clean. The facility should provide a large dumpster to discard trash and a washdown area is all one can usually expect. When paying only $ 35 to $ 100, you’re not going to get much.

At a Full Service storage facility, they charge upwards of $ 300 per month. There you can expect the boat to be removed and placed into the water for you (Dry Stack Storage). They may clean your boat and even keep the batteries charged too. Some of these places will even have indoor storage for those willing to pay the price. Many contract with authorized dealers to have service performed for thee maintenance and upkeep at additional costs. At places like that one can expect a monthly bill of $ 300 up $ 1000 depending on the size of boat and additional care you ask for.
