Melissa, make sure you look through everything, even the clothes. When I did storage units I found bills in with clothes and paperwork. The change can be taken to the bank and traded in for better looking change. I bought a $10 unit and found a jar full of dimes, then in the pocket of a suit jacket was a $100 bill so I got a good deal on that unit. I donated all the clothes and etc. Glad to see Rob out helping you.
It's unbelievable the amount of "junk" people will pay to store away for years and years then just stop paying on it! My father has a storage rental business and some people have had bays for 25+ years, never go get anything from it, just pay every month. He's definitely had some that just pay for a few months then just stop never to be heard from again! I do enjoy watching these videos, kinda fun to see what they've left behind
Happy Friday! I just love the dynamic between you and Rob. His personality blends with yours so well. Loving these storage finds. I think renting for a month in genius. 💜
Awwwww - it was so nice to hear Rob - this one was a bit of a mess - hard work for you to get through. Hopefully there will be some things you can sell. It’s so lovely how much you donate. 😇
Hi Melissa. What a Storage Unit that had it's day. But I can't believe you found some stuff to sell on Whatnot and to donate. I am also glad you had Rob there to help you film. Plus to put the stuff in your car. I can say, it was fun. God Bless you Melissa and Rob. HUGS 🤗. Maria. 🤗🤗❤️❤️👍👍👍👍🪻🌻🌸🏵️💕💕💕
Glad you found some gems. It honestly looks like someone needed to clean out a hoarded house and threw it all into a storage unit so they didn’t have to deal with it.
Seems like it would have been cheaper and easier to hire a dumpster rather than pay for a monthly rental on a storage unit. Of course, they probably only paid for the 1st month. 😮
Jeez that looked scorching. 🥵Great job n new cameraman was too. Loved the voice over quips by him lol. V hard work but lots great gems especially those metal cutouts and the Ed Hardy covers, more than I thought you’d got. Plus donations.Don’t understand the trash they pay storage for but well done Melissa.oh n Rob.👏👏👍🏻😍 here’s to part 2 ☺️
Loved hearing Rob's voice while filming for you!! You two sound so cute together! Storage locker side note, - first look is everything.....if you see nothing but piles of junk, it's probably mostly junk.....people who have more valuable things tend to organize much better. 🙂
I’ve been buying abandoned properties for over 20 years. - Public storage will usually have that unit on a $1 special for the month otherwise that cost eats into your profits. Also look through the bags that even look like trash you’d be surprised where you’d find jewelry or money. It’s definitely addictive…
@@rosefiacco3372 I’ve been buying lockers and other abandoned properties for many moon - a lot of times people Ned to get out of where they are living in a very short time and just toss their things in a unit. Other times you will notice ‘pride of ownership’ that their intention was to move and store. In Florida once you’re 41 days past the payment due date your things can be auctioned off. That public storage and their lock cut and late fees can be astronomical so people just let it go.
Where I live I have a huge unit from that same company PS. I had very expensive items Ive collected through the years and family heirlooms. I had no need to go there on any regular basis and paid on autopay. I recently went there and the locks were cut and changed! When I finally entered with public storage staff who had the keys, it was practically empty. I couldn’t breathe. At least over $9000 worth of my belongings were stolen! And it was an inside job. I’m still trying to work with the insurance company. It’s a nightmare.
First girl you're insane to work on this during the summer heat. Second you're really smart to just temporarily rent the unit so you can take your time. I sure wish you were close enough to help go through my 2 storage units. I'd give you all kinds of stuff in exchange. But oh well I'll get to it eventually. I only got the second to shove things in temporarily. But it's been a couple of years. Soo I really need to go through both & get rid of things. But I have to wait until it cools off again. I may just pay someone to help me & haul the rejects to a donation place.
One piece of advice Melissa, from past experiences with storage units...wear a mask! As soon as you start coughing, mask up. I know it's hot where you are and it's not ideal, but as soon as you start going through filthy units like this, Beware. You're stirring up God knows what kind of microscopic whatever and you're breathing it in. When units are packed neater, the risk is lower. I got sick from a unit like this, so please take care.
And since u see roaches I would quarantine everything before u take it in your home especially electronics they love to hide I'm them because they are warm when in use. It only takes one roach with eggs to turn into a nightmare.
Your right about good stuff being in back. We have a unit we've been in fir for awhile now and we totally put lots of good stuff in back. Super random stuff upfront cause we're in and out of it. Can't wait to see but don't overheat out there 😊
You are braver than I am!! I'm in FL, too, and you couldn't pay me to clean out a storage unit in July! I went to the Goodwill Bins yesterday, and it was sooooo hot, but not as hot as that unit, I'm sure! I hope you find some AMAZING things!!
It was so nice to hear Rob with you! I’ve only seen him once, so far LOL! Not counting the reflection of him in the laptop from this video 😂. Sounds like you two have fun together.
the colored cups and the tablets are used to color easter eggs. The wax thing is to write on the eggs when they are warm and then drop them into the cups. I don't remember the ratio of liquid and vinegar you put in the cups with the dye before you put the egg in
Wow you are awesome and brave to buy such a storage locker with so much stuff! It must be so hot! I always wonder why so many people pay to leave trash in a storage locker each month. Yes there are good stuff but why the junk?
Be sure to look for concert and vintage t-shirt and clothing. Some seems to be really popular and therefore may have value. Even some old collector electronics are worth checking out even for parts.
Not sure if I heard you correctly but what I thought you said was that you would not be keeping the change because it's oxidized. If that is correct, why not? Money is money and you never know if any of those coins could be rare. If not trade them into the bank.
Just an odd comment. You can sharpen scissors with aluminum foil. Just tear off a foot or two, fold it in half and start cutting. It will amaze you how fast the sharpening works! Also old eye glasses can be donated to your local Commission for the Blind. I live in Idaho, and ours is in Boise, Idaho. If you have a donation, they'll probably send someone to come pick up your items if they're a ways away from you.
Walmart has these little metal fans with quite the strong breeze. They're only about $6 & have a usb cord so it can be run on a power bank. They last for years too. You should get yourself a couple of them & a power bank. I have a Iniu that has 2 ports but its runs $30 or so when on sale. Its the 20,000mh You could get a smaller one too. But Iniu has been the best brand for me. But I run my tablet on them so I'm not tethered to a plug. The fan probably takes less juice.
You throwing that mug. 😂I would have done the same. It's funny how there is random stuff put together. Let's toss this jewelry in with these empty bags. We'll put food in the bottom of this clothes hamper....
Hi Melissa in future storage unit videos I'd be interested in some context of the unit(obviously respecting the privacy of the person whos unit it was),such as is the person still alive,do they know their unit is being cleared,will they be getting any of the personal stuff back,and if not what do the owners of the storage facility do with them?Obviously only if you know the answers to any of these questions but I would love to know some of the back story
Melissa, I’m surprised that someone would bother saving so many bags with basically nothing or broken items in them that you’d want to save in a storage unit. Shout out to Rob doing the filming. On another note, I’m surprised that the roaches didn’t eat the cookies! 🦋
Congrats hope you find the gold don’t give up there are units that give you first month free then the 2nd month giving u two mnths look for those gift cards with balances
I'm a Hello Kitty fanatic! $30 was worth it for the content you made from it! :) Yall be careful in the heat. I live in Alabama and I know it's hot down there in Florida! It's 88 but feels like 99 here!! Very humid!
You are brave Melissa! I’d be screaming like a nut, I get so freaked out by bugs! Your hubby was a great sport by helping you! Have a great day! I love this mystery type videos. 💖
Did the mug survive? Lol that would be me too. Hey get a fan that's worn around the neck or the hanging kind that shoot upwards and even have a water spray in them so you stay cooler.
I would sell the cat wall art as a pair. They appear to be chalkwear and if they are they are from the 40-50’s and do have a good price. Look them up online before you sell them.
Melissa, I’m pretty sure that blue ‘funnel’ is a she-wee used by a women to pee standing up! Interesting to come along with you and see what you find but I couldn’t do that! I jumped when you threw that mug lol!
Melissa we need more videos with Rob it looks like you guys are having a great time together
I was lucky he was off that day. We are together in all my whatnot lives too.
@@TheCheapChickWe all need a Rob in our lives 😊🎉
Robs commentary is #EPIC!

Absolutely LOVED Rob's commentary throughout this video😂😂😂
"At the seashore"
"Bullseye baby!"
"That's limited edition"
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣hilarious
We need more Rob. Vintage wrapping paper, flying mugs. Lol. Had me cracking up!
Really loved seeing rob helping out with the filming 😊
It was nice he had the day off to help do it.
Melissa it's hard enough to do what you're doing but then in the heat, you are awesome!
I was dying laughing when you threw that mug 😂 and I enjoyed Rob being there filming

I love Robs sense of humour 😂
You can use the old wrapping paper when shipping to wrap or as filler
Hey! Rob! This gives me hope hes 1 step closer to showing his face lol hes gotten so much more comfortable over time interacting in vids
With all the garbage there was ,I didn’t think you would find anything worthwhile .You are the storage unit warrior.TFS
Happy Friday! I just love the dynamic between you and Rob. His personality blends with yours so well.

Hey! Wait till you see the next vid. Way more gems. I happy Rob was there too. Thanks for watching!
Lovely to have Rob with you I love watching you do storage lockers tc
Yes it was great to have him along.

@@karenmackie9665 it looks like this stuff has been there for a long time to have disintegrated and melted into itself.
Hi Melissa. Be careful. Love you and Rob in your videos. Pls wear a mask!!
Omg id of loved the vintage wrapping papers 😍
Me & You! You & Me! What Fun!😂
WOW robs voice!!
Jeez that looked scorching. 🥵Great job n new cameraman was too. Loved the voice over quips by him lol.

Omg so hot! Glad I found some good stuff. But spoiled so much better stuff in the back.
That is so funny.The rare 96 edition of wrapping paper.You know that might be worth some money😂😂
Some vintage clothing and shoes of certain brands can be very very valuable! Especially if in good condition! ❤
Nice to see you and Rob together . The times you coughed and kept making a sound 😂. That is one dirty unit. You guys are so brave!!! ❤
It was nice for you to have Rob helping out. You found some great items. Love the guitar things
omg.... Rob had me laughing ....love having him film for you... he should do this more often
Oh wow melissa looks like you hit a big one lol its nice to see Rob helping you out such a gentleman ..❤
This was a big one for sure. Lol. I'm happy Rob could help.
Loved hearing Rob's voice while filming for you!! You two sound so cute together! Storage locker side note, - first look is everything.....if you see nothing but piles of junk, it's probably mostly junk.....people who have more valuable things tend to organize much better. 🙂
Spoiler the second vid we got some gems.
When I used to work at a second hand store we had to go through each bag of clothing. I would find so much money in the pockets
I’ve been buying abandoned properties for over 20 years. -
Public storage will usually have that unit on a $1 special for the month otherwise that cost eats into your profits. Also look through the bags that even look like trash you’d be surprised where you’d find jewelry or money.
It’s definitely addictive…
It is addictive. Thankfully renting it gave me time to go through everything
OMG, Why do people pay to store junk?
@@rosefiacco3372 I’ve been buying lockers and other abandoned properties for many moon - a lot of times people Ned to get out of where they are living in a very short time and just toss their things in a unit.

Buy you a pop up canopy so you don't have to work in the sun while you clean those units out ..get a smaller cheap one

Hahaha! Melissa chucks cup with bug at Rob!! I laughed so hard, I still am!🤣🤣
One piece of advice Melissa, from past experiences with storage units...wear a mask! As soon as you start coughing, mask up. I know it's hot where you are and it's not ideal, but as soon as you start going through filthy units like this, Beware. You're stirring up God knows what kind of microscopic whatever and you're breathing it in. When units are packed neater, the risk is lower. I got sick from a unit like this, so please take care.
Oh no! I'm keep that in mind
Love your channel ❤
Rodent droppings dry up, and turn to dust... and that dust can cause severe lung infections.
Mask up!
Yes I agree!!!!! mice and rats carry diseases and u never know if they have nested in there or not. Especially with all the disintegrated bags.
And since u see roaches I would quarantine everything before u take it in your home especially electronics they love to hide I'm them because they are warm when in use. It only takes one roach with eggs to turn into a nightmare.
Your right about good stuff being in back. We have a unit we've been in fir for awhile now and we totally put lots of good stuff in back. Super random stuff upfront cause we're in and out of it. Can't wait to see but don't overheat out there 😊
It was so hot! I could only handle an hour a day. Spoiler.... the back was much better.
Hi Rob.... thanks for helping Melissa..She is the BEST ❤❤
Hi Melissa and Rob, good luck and may God continue blessing you all ❤
You are braver than I am!! I'm in FL, too, and you couldn't pay me to clean out a storage unit in July! I went to the Goodwill Bins yesterday, and it was sooooo hot, but not as hot as that unit, I'm sure! I hope you find some AMAZING things!!
most of those clothes can be washed and donated and that green thing is pretty cool
It was so nice to hear Rob with you! I’ve only seen him once, so far LOL! Not counting the reflection of him in the laptop from this video 😂. Sounds like you two have fun together.
Thanks Rob
It was so sweet of him.
Thanks Rob. I think I am most amazed at how quickly you clean up the items. xxoo A
Wow! What a lot of work! 🥰
Quick reflexes Melissa with the cup 😂
I love Rob was helping you. I wish he would let you show him on video. I really Love your videos. Have a wonderful day 😊
Save the little white shelf box with the broken glass. Put some chicken wire instead of the glass and you have a resale item or keep for your chicks
Somebody was in a hurry to store all that junk.
Tank you Rob for helping... she's a great girl!
The mug toss 😂😂😂
Enjoyed this video, outdoor units can be very iffy. Glad you and Rob did it together 😅 on his comments, loved it. ❤😊
the colored cups and the tablets are used to color easter eggs. The wax thing is to write on the eggs when they are warm and then drop them into the cups. I don't remember the ratio of liquid and vinegar you put in the cups with the dye before you put the egg in
I'm excited for what comes next Melissa!! 😁
it's nice to here Robs voice--now get him on the videos with you--could be lots of fun
Wow you are awesome and brave to buy such a storage locker with so much stuff! It must be so hot! I always wonder why so many people pay to leave trash in a storage locker each month. Yes there are good stuff but why the junk?

Melissa, you need to get a neck fan from temu. They are wonderful. They last almost 2 hours on a full charge.
MELISSA, I THINK THOSE COLOR CUPS WERE FOR DYING EASTER EGGS. YOU ARE SUCH BA GOOD HEARTED PERSON, LUV YOU AND ALL YOUR VIDEOS!!❤❤❤
❤love seeing you and Rob working together that is 🤩 awesome

Thanks so much!
May I ask how you find these do you go on the storage website@@TheCheapChick

I really needed to be brave with this one. Lol. So glad you enjoy them.
I love watching your videos. You make me smile. Just wanted to say Thank you
Did the mug survive? Lol that would be me too. Hey get a fan that's worn around the neck or the hanging kind that shoot upwards and even have a water spray in them so you stay cooler.
I love watching all your videos and also HAPPY BIRTHDAY Melissa love Michelle from the UK ❤
Hope u find good things further in , think I've fallen in love with robs voice 😂❤
😅
Love all your videos, but especially the storage units! ❤
32:48 oh my if I’d seen them EVERY SINGLE THING would been trashed 😬
Hi Melissa. What a work wel done . Rob too. Have a great day. Byebye 👋
You should check out the inside those purses
Oh I did. Not everything was filmed.
Love love love these videos of lockers! 🦘🐨😊
Love the looney tunes ornaments! 😃that’s cool!
I'm curious if wherever you have tried to contact a previous owner with the personal items (ID, photos, etc) what is your experience?
You know that the sun issue is your fault.....your shirt says "bring on the sunshine" LOL
PROJECT SMILE 🐰 💋
Ur hubby is so funny : I’m dying at his comments
She was a hoarder for sure
Love the video. One case is for a CPAP machine.
Melissa is it worth buying these? Me and my wife are fans of storage wars and want to look into this but not sure ?
Rob is very funny ... making me crack up while eating dinner
❤did you get anything out of it?lots of work blessings
Most cubesmart storage units are inside and air conditioning
Take picture frames outside and take apart roach eggs get in them. I bought something from thrift and roaches were in. Roaches love cardboard boxes
The little cups with tablets are for coloring easter eggs.
I would sell the cat wall art as a pair. They appear to be chalkwear and if they are they are from the 40-50’s and do have a good price. Look them up online before you sell them.
Love the shirt ♥️😁❤...
Melissa, I’m pretty sure that blue ‘funnel’ is a she-wee used by a women to pee standing up! Interesting to come along with you and see what you find but I couldn’t do that! I jumped when you threw that mug lol!
What do you call super cheap "services"? 7:48
I looked and couldn't see it
Hi Melissa are you going to make more like this people that own this unit should throw away garbage why they will put trash in there that disguise
