How to Start a UNITS Mobile Storage Franchise
Historically, the moving and storage business has been dominated by fixed storage location service providers. UNITS Moving and Portable Storage is changing the way people move and store their personal belongings in markets throughout the country. Simply stated, convenience is the number one driver at UNITS.
We have built a business platform that takes the hassle out of moving and storing household belongings. No more renting a U-Haul and racing the clock to load up your belongings, deliver them to a storage facility, unload what you just loaded and then do it all over again when you are ready to retrieve your property.
At UNITS Moving and Portable Storage, we deliver our State-of-the-Art portable moving and storage containers to our customers door step. They load their belongings into the container at their convenience and we pick up the container and deliver it to their final destination or store it in our climate controlled storage facility. It’s a simple, convenient and no hassle alternative to fixed location storage facilities.
Our Unique business model straddles two rapidly growing industries: moving and storage. According to the Mobile Self Storage Association (MSSA), the moving and storage industry represents a $40 billion per year industry and is expected to surpass the mini-self storage industry in sales and popularity in the near future. This emerging and under competitive industry has very few real players, and our plan is to establish UNITS Moving and Portable Storage as the superior alternative to any competitor.
UNITS has created a superior program by engineering the most advanced container and lift system in the industry. Our fifth generation container is made with a steel frame and reinforced fiberglass making it light, strong and durable. It has no exposed wood so there is no potential for mold or moisture build up. It has a translucent roof designed to allow natural light in yet blocking the harmful rays that can damage personal belongings.
Our proprietary lift system was engineered to eliminate the need to use a fork lift to on and off load the container from the truck. Our 5% grade allows UNITS technicians to pick up and deliver containers without disturbing the contents: safely, efficiently and with less cost than our competitors.
Our training, marketing and support services demonstrate a strong commitment to excellence with an emphasis on local customer service. We are focused in our efforts to capitalize on the demand for local moving and storage, short or long-term storage and long distance moving before the market becomes saturated. This in turn, is what separates UNITS from the competition.
