Issues With Abandoned Storage Units

When a customer doesn't pay their storage unit rent when due under their contract, the unit and its contents are turned over to the facility owner. In nearly every case, these units are entirely full, creating two significant challenges for seasoned owners and new facility owners.

1. Units filled with large bulky items and unusable or unsalvageable items
2. Bulky items and debris piled up around the dumpster areas from customers closing out their units and leaving large items behind

What's Found in a Storage Unit?

Contrary to what you may have seen on TV, abandoned storage units don't contain valuable treasures, and most items left behind are simply trash. The most common and economical solution is to discard everything in the unit since things are rarely in a condition that would make it possible to resell or donate them.

Mattresses, bed frames, bed rails, bags or boxes of old clothes, and heavy or bulky household items are typical items found in abandoned storage units. Many items, such as mattresses and some household goods, cannot be donated and must be disposed of properly and legally.
