Self storage- Auction Day

Had an auction today. Two units, one at each of two of our locations. We have 8 locations and 1,200 units. Only these two units auctioned in the last 2 months due to our autopay requirements and fast lockout procedures.

Auction- follow state laws for your state.

Auction Rules- a. Open door, b. Don't go in or touch anything, c. Back away once you're done looking, d. Only do bids in $10 increments, e. As soon as I don't get a bid, I say 1,2,3 you won. The bidding for a unit usually only takes about 20 seconds.

Objective- is not to get the most money, it's to get someone else to clean the unit out.

We have not tried doing on-line auctions. Our objective is not to make the most money, its to get someone else to empty the unit out. Also we want to control the "timing" of when we need to be available. Our locations do not have onsite management. All of our business practices are built around convenience for the customer and for them to not "control" our time or schedule. On our Auctions, we only meet the people one time, at the auction on Saturday and the unit is cleaned out by Monday morning.

Happy Auction bidders below.
