RV storage outdoor and indoor.

Paul Clement
Posted

Looking to purchase a property that is perfect for RV storage. 10 plus acres already graveled and fenced, and zoned outdoor storage. What software are others using to manage a large facility? What do you like and what do you hate about it? Should be able to get over 450 RV's and have some Shipping container storage units also.

@Paul Clement

Many softwares out there.  Google a review or look up articles on Self Storage magazine

I would focus on the following items:

1.  Figure out how to offer insurance. That can be processed thru the software. Or offer literature but don’t process the insurance.  RVs are so easy to break into.  I almost don’t want to service them. By offering insurance, one less reason for you to Ben sues

2.  Security systems. Cameras everywhere. Due to the height of rv’s hard to get coverage

3.  Sell or offer motion sensor alarms for inside units 

4.  450 is a lot.  Plus a portion inside. Do you have a market for $225 to $350 in door parking?

5.  Concierge service. If your going for it, make sure your software has a calendar and maintenance or messaging feature.
