I bought a unit thanksgiving weekend. It made keeping home and business separate and so much easier. And I did it because I went down the TikTok rabbit hole too lol
The unit I'm looking at they allow packages to be delivered to the unit you just put in the address and unit number just like an apartment. I can manage my packages and they could accept them for me and put it in my unit for me. Idk how comfortable you are with that but see if your unit company does that if interested.
Thank you for sharing this! Yes. Our facility allows for packages to be delivered. We have quite a few business who “operate” or “store” inventory from their units. I don’t receive a bunch of inventory but for those that do it’s such a wonderful and convenient idea.
Best *Note To Self* ever!!! Bring a broom...Thank you!!! Now to decide if I want to download tiktok to see these videos you're talking about 😂 got my unit today❤
Good stuff! You could also get a light outlet plug for the light which allows for plugging a extension cord. Some units also have a outlet. Just call around . Some units at public storage have 2 outlets in the bigger units.
Have you had any issues with mice or rats? I rented out 2 units (10x20) and one of mine had mouse droppings after a few months. The storage company has been solid taking care of it and we caught the mouse, but I am so spooked. When you are carrying thousands of dollars of inventory- its a real thing to think about!
I haven’t had any issues with mice, rats or other pests. Maybe a spiderweb or two. Often rats and mice are looking for food which I don’t store or eat in my unit. If it’s an issue within the facility then yes they should take care of it. I’d be spooked too though… I can’t do no critters!
I LOVE THE SPOT AND I ALSO ACTUALLY LOVE THE SIGHT OF THE EXPOSED BRICK. but of course its not for me to like... I am soooo excited and happy for you on your new endeavors!
You can’t “run” a business technically but you can store your business things and spend time in your unit- packing orders for example. You can’t have people physically coming to the unit. Simply call around and ask. I was very upfront with my storage managers.
@@zion7885 I don’t receive deliveries but the manager on site told me there are some people who do. They just deliver to you at the unit like you would if you were moving in. Idk about after hours deliveries. Hope that helps. 🫶🏾
Hi there. I actually never worried about it. We are required to have locks on our units. I have two. Also the storage facility is gated with a keypad entry as well as security cameras on the premises. So it’s never really been a thought. Been here for 2 years now and haven’t had any issues. Thanks for asking. It’s a great idea… good luck 🌸💕
I used a portable generator. I got it on amazon. It has a couple of plugs, usb ports, c-type and other things plus a built in light. Also some units if they are indoor will have light. :)

lol you’re welcome. Download at your own risk because there’s a lot of good stuff in between the crap! Good luck to you 😜💪🏾
Also out door units are cool since they are drive up and you can chill by ur car or be cooling in the air etc.
No. Dust and dirt can get inside, more insects. Your inventory won't stay clean, especially if it's stored by the entrance of your unit.

Yes! Exactly. Thank you 🙏🏾
Thank you for the ideas. I think about it but not even sure how to do, you show me everything
Good luck to you.

Congrats on "the spot" I think that's the name of the new office 🤭😁

Thank you for posting this! I’m going to put my big girl panties on and make the leap soon! You did a great job ❤️
Yes do it!! I’ve got zero regrets or complaints.
I love this video very inspirational. What kind of generator did you use ?
Thanks. It’s in the video. Got it on Amazon.
This must be my sign. Ive been thinking of doing this for affiliate marketing business I want to start
Well there you go mama… Let’s get it!!! 💪🏽💪🏾🤗
How do you tell if a storage company allows businesses to be run in their storage rooms? Also which ones allow it?
You can’t “run” a business technically but you can store your business things and spend time in your unit- packing orders for example. You can’t have people physically coming to the unit. Simply call around and ask. I was very upfront with my storage managers.
How do you manage deliveries? Does the unit come with an address you can use for incoming and outgoing deliveries?
@@zion7885 I don’t receive deliveries but the manager on site told me there are some people who do. They just deliver to you at the unit like you would if you were moving in. Idk about after hours deliveries. Hope that helps. 🫶🏾
I have a question how do you handle these trying to break into your storage unit I'm asking because I'm thinking of doing this

I have seen people doing this. Our storage is full to the max 😂
I love it so far. This unit is specifically just for inventory and filming. I’d need a whole different one for my stuff too lol
Be blessed milady. 😊
Did you get a generator or did they have electricity? Thanks
I got a small generator from Amazon it has a light and 2 plug outlets as well as usb outlets and type c.
Hello I think some lights timer settings
Yeah it had a timer setting. Lol
Big question how do you get electricity?
I used a portable generator. I got it on amazon. It has a couple of plugs, usb ports, c-type and other things plus a built in light. Also some units if they are indoor will have light. :)
How can you get internet in your storage unit?
Hotspot
You’d need to have a portable hot spot.
@@beingaddiegreen I have a portable modem and the signal is really weak. Also my phone signal is weak. How is yours?
@@beingaddiegreenhello
How can I plug my eu plug, there is no sockets in storage unit
How did you manage to get wifi? I want to get a unit to have a gaming or streaming space but worried about sound proofing and internet.
I would just use my hotspot for internet when I needed it but I mostly wasn’t using a lot of internet, more so the space itself.
Same here my signal is pretty weak with the T-Mobile printable modem I need that Fiber optic stuff lol
Do these storage units have outlets ?
@@paularagon4985 this particular one does not. I used a small generator that has different outlets… purchased on Amazon.
@@beingaddiegreen that’s what I figured thank you ! 🙏
Did you use peep and stick on the walls
@@jainabajallow2983 I didn’t but they would be a good idea to cover the concrete. 🙏🏾🫶🏾
This is Brilliant!
I thought the same lol. It works out so well. 🤗
i can’t wait to do mine 😭
Yay! How exciting!!
Like number 100 🤗
Flooring?
@@millyortiz8046 peel and stick “wood” planks from Home Depot. 💪🏽
How do you get service?
Gotta have some type of hot spot dod internet. 😊
You canTapestry for your wall❤
@@theberryschannel9196 great idea!!
10x10?
It’s a 10x15 👍🏾
Watched until you used the lord’s name in vain…. If you don’t find God You will be damned to an eternity in hell🙏🙏🙏
Awesome!! Thanks 😊 🙄
