Getting Into the Thick of It

It is now mid June. The first day of summer and the longest day is here. Father’s Day has passed and the middle of the month lull in self storage demand is about over. This weekend will be the last full weekend in June. The next weekend will put us into Fourth of July vacations and celebrations. The 22nd to 24th weekend should be very busy at self storage properties. People will try to get things done before kicking back for the Fourth. Monday the 25th may be the busiest day for demand we have seen all season. It will depend some on the weather and depend on whether more people will try to do their moving and organizing closer to the Fourth.

In any case, you should look at demand at your self storage operation and put your finger to the wind. Are you ahead of where you need to be for June? Has the demand hit you yet for this month? What can you expect for the rest of the month? At PhoneSmart, we are looking for very strong demand over the next week and a half. Gasoline prices have eased off just a tad in many markets. June has been busy for our self storage clients, but not as busy as it could have been. We think there is a good deal of pent up demand and some end of the month demand coming. Good luck and good selling.
