NEIGHBORHOOD

While lower income people certainly use self-storage, so do higher income people. What you want to look for in a location is: path of progress, population growth, new developments / subdivisions. etc.

A recent count states that one in ten American households uses self storage.

NICHE POSSIBILITIES

There are several niches in self storage - - - as people have already pointed out:

  • Outdoor Storage
  • Toy Storage (Boats, RV's, Snowmobiles, Watercraft) This can be indoor or out.
  • Wine Storage is an emerging area

The beauty of this is that you can really tailor your self storage business to your goals or your area. Is your land in a lower income area? Go with the standard facility. Is it in a higher income area? Go with Indoor, climate control toy (rv / boat) storage, wine storage, etc.
