While the current mindset is a practice in uncertainty, there are some industries who have a real opportunity to help. The storage industry, for example, is necessary for preparedness. Think about it, all of the recent graduates are in a state of limbo and may not have their futures completely plotted. While they figure things out, they may need to temporarily move back in with their parents. This can be a blessing, unless there’s clearly no more room left in the empty nest! Many residents are going to be looking for a place to store all of their 20-something’s items. With a drive-up self-storage relocatable unit or a portable storage solution in your own driveway, you can take a fittingly small step toward normalcy.
Businesses have also been in flux, and while everything is slowly opening back up, there is still an ongoing need for equipment storage to make room for the new pandemic spacing requirements in restaurants, offices, daycares, and schools. Self-storage and portable storage products are perfect for stashing away items while they are temporarily unnecessary. With more people working from home, there’s also an increased demand for temporary portable offices. Many of the businesses who need a storage solution during unforeseen events have never needed one before, so when dealing with variables during this pandemic, wouldn’t it be great to have something that’s easy and convenient? Yes. It is key to promote the flexibility and ease of relocatable self-storage and portable storage products.
It seems absurd to even mention the weather, but hurricane season is upon us. September is historically the most active and intense month. Here exists a definite need for emergency storage that no one ever wants to prepare for. Our industry, however, can be that reminder for businesses to stock up on 100% weather-resistant storage units for an ideal solution during restoration and remediation efforts. When a home is damaged by water, fire or mold, out-of-home storage is integral to the process of home restoration. These products provide a safe, secure and weatherproof structure where belongings can be assessed, organized or simply stowed, allowing restoration professionals to do their job efficiently.
