Recently I read an article about a rock band that uses a 14 x 20 self-storage unit as their practice and recording studio. This made me interested in what other unusual activities occur in self-storage facilities. One interesting story  was about a  man who loved to play the piano and his wife disliked hearing the music, so he kept his piano in a self-storage unit and would go there every day and play. How amazing would it be to if you were renting storage space from his location and to be able to listen to a live piano concert? There are many articles about people operating their business out of self-storage units so that they can keep their operation costs lower. One small business owner took it a step farther and opened a martial arts gym in a self-storage unit. The possibilities are limitless as long as the self- storage owner has all the facts.

One last nugget, just in time for the holidays is that a self-storage unit makes a great hiding spot for presents. Some self-storage facilities will even wrap your presents for a charitable donation. If someone has a story about self-storage please share it.
