How is self-storage revenue generated?

Self-storage revenue is generated primarily through rental income from tenants. This rental income is typically collected on a monthly basis and is based on the size of the rental unit and the rental rate in the market. In addition to rental income, some self-storage facilities may generate revenue from additional services such as insurance, truck rentals, and retail sales of moving and storage supplies. Some facilities may also generate revenue from late fees, auction proceeds, and other charges related to delinquent accounts. Overall, self-storage revenue is a combination of rental income and income from ancillary services, and it can be influenced by factors such as occupancy rates, rental rates, competition in the market, and local economic conditions.
