They're auctioned off.
Storage unit profits.
Owner of goods loses all of their goods, still owes back rent, plus interest. 10/29/2012 12:04:15 AM |

I remember watching some spoof film about moviemaking about a decade ago, and a struggling film-maker in Hollywood used a self-storage unit to "store himself"; TIL that most places won't let you do that. 10/29/2012 8:47:36 PM |

some false information ITT.
In NC, the storage unit facility is only allowed to recoup what is "owed" to them. Any profit made from the unit auction above that which is owed is supposed to be given back to the person who's shit got auctioned off.
Trust me on this. I have frequented MANY an auction around these parts. 10/29/2012 10:15:52 PM |

nothing to write home about. Most of the units around here arent worth the time. And the few decent units that spring up go for WAYYYYYYY too much damn money. Everyone seems to think they're on Storage Wars or something. 10/29/2012 10:45:15 PM |

I havent personally, but my coworker that I go to these with has won a few. He's turned a small profit over the course of about 2 years, however he's invested a shitload of time and effort into this and there's no way it's "paid off". It's more or less just something for him to do in his spare time.
I've bid on quite a few, but they usually go for a good bit more than I think they are worth. It's just like Vegas really. You've gotta be willing to risk big money if you want to make money. 10/29/2012 11:22:54 PM |
