Ep 382: The Hidden Cost of Storage Units with Kate Bosch
Hi Friends,
On today’s episode I get to sit down with my friend Kate Bosch who is our SBO partner in Rhode Island. You might remember from ep 298 and ep 333 (both episodes are worth a listen!)
Today we’re talking about one of the biggest sources of clutter for many people: storage units.
Kate is here to share some surprising statistics on the entire storage unit industry:
- Specifically the amount of storage facilities in the US
- Revenue generated from the self storage industry
- which generation is the biggest user of storage facilities
- The average cost of a storage unit
- The average length of time that people tend to hold onto their units
If you find yourself in a situation where a storage unit is necessary, Kate shares some practical tips and questions to ask to ensure your stuff is safe and protected.
If you know someone who could benefit from this episode, please pass it along!
