After years of only selling a few sizes of boxes, mattress bags, packing tape, and of course, LOCKS, I have finally expanded the merchandise line and added a few more things--things which, I have found through listening to my customers ("When the market speaks, good managers listen!"), are in frequent demand--like Wardrobe Boxes w/ Metal Bars, Dishpack boxes (and the cell dividers that go with them), Glass Saver kits (foam pouches and dividers), BUBBLE WRAP (oh, yeah!), plus other ancillary items like Sofa Covers, Chair Covers and Dust Covers. (I also ordered some Rope--white nylon, 1/4" x 50 ft.--which is on backorder at the moment. I will let you know as soon as I get that in!)
It just makes sense to carry a decent selection of merchandise items that most people would associate with storage. (You don't need a BA in Marketing to figure that out!) And I know that you, as a "consumer" of self-storage products and services, would appreciate that you can actually buy some, most or all of what you need for storing (and/or moving) your personal or business belongings, furniture, etc., right here in the storage office.
Well, I'm pretty happy about that. (smiling, jumping up and down)
Right now I'm working on converting an empty wall into our Grand Central Master Merchandise Display. And when I'm finished with it, as you walk through the door you will be overwhelmed, stunned and amazed at the sheer beauty, elegance and utter utilitarian brilliance of what you behold!
I'll keep you posted on the progress.
Your Manager.
Paul
