Self Storage Is Glamorous

Now I’m sure at first glance, no one would really classify the self storage business as a glamorous business. However, from my experience, it is the most glamorous work I’ve ever done (not saying much is it?). Over the thousands of calls that I have taken regarding self storage I have managed to speak with representatives of BET, MTV, MGM, and Comedy Central. They were all looking to store sound equipment or lighting equipment. MTV was doing it for a spring break special that they needed somewhere to put their stuff while the filming was happening. I may not necessarily have spoken with a big wig at any of the corporations or any of their star personalities but how cool is it to say that “Comedy Central called me at work!”

To be honest, I was a little surprised that such large companies and/or networks would inquire about storing their equipment at a self storage place. It’s just unusual to me that companies that have access to all of the many Hollywood warehouses available in their area, would still need a storage facility that one of us “normal” people use. It just goes to show that no business is too good for storage and not to rule out big businesses or corporations as possible long term tenants.
