When looking for  self storage, there are a couple of ways you can choose a property. If you’re looking through the Yellow Pages, searching the internet, or viewing a television commercial, you will be given a contact number for the various properties.

First, you must choose which property will be most convenient.   Sometimes, a location is chosen because it may be near work, but mostly properties are chosen because they are close to your home. Although, some properties may have different availabilities or prices, you will want to choose the property that will be most convenient and meets your storage needs. For example, although a storage unit may be a few dollars less on the other side of town; you will not want to take the time to drive the distance every time you need to visit your unit. On the other hand, if you need a temperature controlled space for your belongings and the nearest property doesn‘t offer temperature control, then you may want to drive that extra mile or so to StorPlace Self Storage in order to meet those storage needs. Remember that your first priority is to protect your belongings.  After you have chosen which property would be the most convenient, the next step is to contact the property manager.

When you call StorPlace Self Storage, one of these things will happen.  The property manager may be unable to answer the phone because they are either out on the property or with a customer. In this case, a recording will ask you whether you would like to speak with someone at the call center or leave a message for the property manager. If you speak with someone at the call center, they can give you information on the property, the units, prices, and availability. They can also reserve a unit at that particular property for you for as little as $10.00, which will be credited towards your first month’s rent. Once the call ends, the representative sends an email to the property manager at StorPlace Self Storage with all the information they have regarding your inquiry. The manager will then follow-up with any questions they may have with you or just to make sure you have directions to the storage center.  If you like, you can skip the call center and simply leave a message for the property manager, and he/she will return your call as soon as possible. However, 99% of the time you call a store, the property manager will answer right away.  Speaking directly with the property manager is the best option because on-site managers know their property better than a call center, especially if any units have recently come available that the call center has not registered yet. Property managers may also run their own specials that are only offered if you call or come to the store personally.

Upon arriving at a StorPlace Self Storage property, you will be greeted by a friendly, helpful store manager.  He or she will be able to answer any additional questions or concerns you may have regarding storage.  Once the property manager shows you the unit that was reserved, you will be the best judge as to whether your belongings will fit into that space. If, however, during the move you notice that the unit is too small or too large, contact the property manger and he/she will be able to offer a unit that is larger or smaller to accommodate your storage needs.

After finding that perfect space, the manager will ask for just a few moments of your time to fill out the appropriate paperwork for your storage unit. StorPlace Self Storage has 12 locations throughout Middle Tennessee to serve all your needs. Please come visit us at 1615 Charlotte Road, Nashville, TN 37203, or you can call us at 615-321-0400.

With another New Year, there is no better time than the present to take a look at your self storage facility with a critical eye. As you examine your business, think about what is working for you and what you can improve on.  After you have thoroughly analyzed your situation, make a plan to resolve any problems you may find. Remember you may not be able to correct every issue before 2011, but you will have a head start just by having a clear understanding of your facility’s strengths and weaknesses.

The best place to start is with self examination. Yes, the area that will make the largest impact on your facility starts with the manager. Listed below are some ideas that may help improve your skills as a self storage manager.

They are as follows:

1. Learn to become a pro-active problem solver.

The New Year is a great time to improve your offensive game. If you know something is likely to escalate, like a perpetually icy patch of sidewalk or a customer who is always late, look for solutions right away. Take the initiative before a problem develops.

2. Always put yourself in your customers’ shoes.

Self storage managers are constantly faced with customers who are dealing with emotionally charged, stressful situations. Try to keep this in mind and cut your customers some slack if they are a little out of sorts or even rude. We all know what it’s like to be stressed out.

3. Write down and track your professional goals.

Whether you want to increase your facility’s retail sales or improve occupancy at your site, set some specific self storage related goals.

4. Make professional contacts.

Join groups like the Chamber of Commerce and the Better Business Bureau—they can be great resources for networking. Talk to managers at competing self storage facilities, too. They may be able to send customers your way when they do not have the specific products or  storage unit sizes available to serve these clients themselves.

5. Set a specific goal for each day.

Big goals are often reached after completing a series of smaller steps. Daily goals are easy to set and are especially satisfying as you check them off at the end of the business day.

6. Strive to become a better listener.

One of the easiest steps in improving your listening skills starts by resolving to listen more than you talk. Your customers will appreciate your attentiveness and may reward your listening efforts with a referral or two. You’ll be surprised at what you can learn when you stop and listen!

7. Invest in yourself.

Do you want to move up the corporate ladder at your self storage company? Maybe you’d like to become a Certified Self Storage Manager (CSSM)? Find out what steps you need to take and make a list to follow. Then, check off your progress everyday as you move closer to meeting your goals.

8. Do something just for yourself each day.

You can’t be a great self storage manager, if you’re all business all the time.Resolve to take a little time for yourself each day. Read a book, talk with a friend, or take a moment to laugh at the end of the day—you’ll be a better self storage manager for it!

Storplace Self Storage on Old Hickory Blvd. near Nolensville Rd. in Antioch Nashville, TN. is open 9:00AM to 5:30 Monday –Friday and 8:00 AM-4:30PM on Saturday. Please feel free to come by for a tour of the facility or call (615)832-3388.

You may find a few other places to store your belongings around town that are a bit lower priced.  Be sure to look at the recording devices at those locations.  Can you see each building?  Can you see each aisle way?  Can you see behind each building?  Can you see the ends of all of those buildings?  Is there a camera situated to view each entry way?  What about the office doors and the inner units of the temperature controlled units?  Are there sufficient lights all around the property?  We must remember that for nearly six months out of the year we have less and less day light after five o’clock.  Will you feel comfortable with the lighting provided?  Some of these questions may seem redundant; however, they will not come to mind until after the fact.  Be prepared going in.  Make sure you are asking the right questions when comparing storage facilities for your precious memoirs.

Sara Beth was 22 years old, living in sunny Southern California with her parents.  She was unhappy with her job, unhappy with her boyfriend, and dreaded the idea of returning to school at the local community college in her hometown.  She never felt like she belonged there.  She always felt out of place with her long red hair, freckles, and her rugged cowboy boots.

Sara Beth decided to take a good look at what she wanted out of life.  She thought of the things she loved and the things she dreamed of.  She realized she was too young to just settle for anything.

One thing was certain.  Sara Beth had talent.  She had been singing since the age of six, she learned to play the piano at the age of eight, and was learning the guitar by the time she was 10.  She especially loved gospel and country music.  Sara Beth had been singing at her church every Sunday since she was 12, and has performed at all of the county fairs in Southern California.

After contemplating returning to college, she looked into colleges where she could pursue her love of country music Nashville, she wanted to be as close as she could to  Music City USA, Nashville, TN.

Sara Beth applied to Belmont University and to MTSU’s School of Music.  She was accepted at both, but MTSU’s School of Music was more affordable.   MTSU is located in Murfreesboro Nashville. After she received her letter of acceptance, there was only one thing left to do, pack up everything she owned and hit the road.  She gathered up every instrument she owned and every ounce of courage she had in her, and headed across the country to Murfreesboro, TN.

It was over a twenty-hour drive with all the stops and breaks she took.  She made the drive completely on her own, with Reba singing loudly through the U-Haul and plenty of caffeine in her Starbuck’s latte.  She hit the interstate vigorously and vowed never to return to Southern California.

Somewhere along the way, Sara Beth realized that the contents of her U-Haul would never fit into her dorm room at MTSU.  Therefore, before she could unload and fix up her room in the School of Music’s Poland Hall, she was going to have to decide on getting a storage unit to put most of her instruments and many of her boxes in.

After deciding it was to unsafe to research this idea while driving, she decided to wait until she reached Murfreesboro, TN to research the idea a little further and pick out  a storage unit.  She knew there had to be plenty in the area.

She arrived in Murfreesboro, TN at 9pm on a Sunday night.  Exhaustion had set in; hunger was approaching, and she hoped she had not made a big mistake.  She pulled into a Waffle House, with her laptop and her cell phone, and decided to eat a hot meal and find a storage unit so she could unload some of the stuff in this 27ft. truck.

Sara Beth searched for storage units in Murfreesboro, TN within a close distance to MTSU.  She found eight of them.  She was going to do a little price comparison but to her surprise, the first four facilities she called were closed and all she got was an answering machine.  Those were the ones closest to MTSU and it looks like they were crossed off the list.

Sara Beth finally got a hold of a real person who could help her.  The storage facility was fairly close to MTSU, and it was right next to Wal-Mart.

The storage consultant moved her right in over the phone, gave her the personal access code to get into the gate, and charged her for the month’s rent.  It all took less than 10 minutes.

Please come visit us at 5251 Mt. View Road, Antioch, TN 37013, or you can call us at 615-731-1331.

The next paragraph is what happened at 6pm that night.  That customer and her family remained in all of our thoughts the rest of the day.  How lucky most of us are to just have roofs over our head and a place to call home.  One of the many things we seem to take for granted in the hustle and bustle of out daily lives.  Needless to say, when the customer that was in the office earlier that day was on News Channel 5 that evening, telling her entire story, it seems if you follow your instincts and offer help to someone who is in need, you get rewarded back in ways you never expected.

This is the story on the news that night:

Marsha Swopes survived Hurricane Katrina and came to live in a free house from Fanny Mae. For two years she’s called Antioch home, until Sheriff’s Deputies showed up to evict her.

Tuesday was moving day for Swopes, her two daughters and two grandchildren, but they had nowhere to go.

“I’m just tired of moving. I want a place of my own that I can afford. I don’t want to move anymore,” said Swopes.

For the last two years Swopes has lived in a home on Fanny Mae’s dime. The company launched a relief program to help evacuees get back on their feet.

The economy has made it hard for Swopes to get ahead. She said jobs are hard to come by and tough to hold onto.

Her church helped her move her belongings into a free storage unit Tuesday morning.

“Lost, being homeless always trying to find where I’m supposed to be, where I’m supposed to live,” said Swopes.

She admitted there was no one to blame but herself, and perhaps the eviction will give way to a better life.

“It’s the end of something and now the beginning of something else hopefully good,” said Swopes.

Swopes lost her job in June and she knew the eviction was coming. She’s been trying to get approved for Section eight housing ever since. Unfortunately, the process did not happen quick enough.

The following facts are from National Geographic magazine pertaining to Hurricane Katrina.  Even though, most of us in Nashville, TN were not involved in this tragedy, our Operations Manager is from New Orleans and her mother’s home was destroyed in Hurricane Katrina.  Therefore, whether you feel empathy or sympathy for others doesn’t really matter, as long as you feel something and as long as you help the next person.  You never know when it may be you or your family.

Hurricane Katrina was the sixth strongest hurricane ever recorded and the third strongest hurricane ever recorded to make landfall in the U.S.

In New Orleans, the evacuation plan was particularly crucial because it is in the Storm Surge Zone, below sea level (up to six feet in some places). Its levies were only designed for a Category 3 and Katrina was forecast as a Category 4 featuring gusts topping 140 miles an hour (225 kilometers an hour).

The storm surge from Katrina was 20-feet (six meters) high.

The failure of the levees was due to system design flaws for the most part, combined with the lack of adequate maintenance. Apparently, the designers, builders and maintenance people did not devote enough time or attention to the levees in the region.

More than one million Gulf Coast residents have been displaced and many of the refugees were living below the poverty line before the storm struck.

The final death toll was at 1,836, primarily from Louisiana (1,577) and Mississippi (238). It’s very difficult to determine the exact cause of the deaths but they were all caused either directly or indirectly by the Hurricane.

An estimated 80% of New Orleans was under water, up to 20 feet deep in places.

Hurricane Katrina caused $75 billion in estimated physical damages, the most costly hurricane in history, but it is estimated that the total economic impact in Louisiana and Mississippi may exceed $150 billion.

About 90,000 square miles were affected by Katrina.

Before the hurricane, the region supported approximately one million non-farm jobs, with 600,000 of them in New Orleans, but hundreds of thousands of local residents were left unemployed by the hurricane.

More than 70 countries pledged monetary donations or other assistance. Kuwait made the largest single pledge of $500 million, but Qatar, India, China, Pakistan and Bangladesh made very large donations

In Nashville ,TN, we did not have a hurricane Katrina, but we had a devastating on in Nashville, Murfreesboro, Tn. StorPlace Self Storage responded by bringing free storage boxes on the site where homes were destroyed and offering  one month’s free rent to all victims. For a storage company, who has a heart, visit StorPlace Self Storage in Antioch Nashville at Hickory Hollow at 5251 Mt. View Road, Antioch, TN 37013, or call us at 615-731-1331.

Sympathy essentially implies a feeling of recognition of anothers suffering while empathy is actually sharing another’s suffering, if only briefly. Empathy is often characterized as the ability to “put oneself into another’s shoes”.

Empathy develops into an unspoken understanding and mutual decision making that is unquestioned, and forms the basis of community. Sympathy may be positive or negative, in the sense that it attracts a perceived quality to a perceived self identity, or it gives love and assistance to the unfortunate and needy.

One feels empathy when one has “been there” and sympathy when one hasn’t.

It was a Monday that was like most others, lots of paperwork, phone calls to return, trash to pick up and halls to sweep.  In between these daily chores, a customer walks into the office at StorPlace of Hickory Hollow to inquire about a storage unit.  She starts out by asking the routine questions about price, location, and type of lock to use and then in mid-sentence, breaks down crying at the front desk.

When most people come looking for a self storage unit, it is usually because of some sort of life-change.  Some are positive changes, like new homes, new marriages, new jobs, and new babies.  Some are not so positive and most people in the self-storage business have dealt with the tragic life changes as well, loss of a loved one, divorce, loss of home/job and even tornado victims.

However, on this day, it seemed different.  The customer was sobbing and seemed so heartbroken.  Her tears were genuine, her face was distraught, and she kept apologizing for the tears and the inability to talk.  Just like a mother’s instinct is to hug her children and tell them everything will be OK whenever they are hurt, most people feel that same way when someone is that upset, you feel that same instinct.  Instead of hugging, just a simple acknowledgement of her pain and an offer of a Kleenex seemed to help this customer.

Too sum everything up; the customer was being evicted from her home at that moment.  The sheriff deputies were in the process of putting all of her belongings in her yard.  She needed a storage unit, but had no money.  She had two daughters and 2 grandchildren, ages 5 months and one year,  whom  she was caring for and they no longer had a home.  The manager was torn  between  what would be the best thing to do for the company and   w hat would be the best thing to do for this customer.  What is the gut instinct telling you to do?  Turn the customer away, afraid of the inability of her to pay  for her  mini storage rent? StorPlace Self storage,located and committed to Middle Tennessee Nashville, offer unbiased support and offer her the best deal on a storage unit in order to get her belongings safely tucked away until she had time to get her priorities in order.  When you deal with a business that not only offers a service, but also offers that service with a heart and with compassion, that is when you get “customer service.”

After this customer had left the office, the circumstances of why and how she was being evicted did not matter.  She had calmed down and showed true appreciation for what had just happened.  She didn’t offer any more explanations and she hurried out the office to go check on her grandbabies and to start packing.

For unparalleled customer service and empathy and a company who cares, come by StorPlace Self Storage of Hickory Hollow in Antioch Nashville 5251 Mt. View Road, Antioch, TN 37013, or call us at 615-731-1331.

               Nowadays, it is hard to go anywhere without hearing about the economy and the negative impact it is having on many good people here in the United States. Businesses are struggling, more and more people are applying for jobs. People that graduated from college are applying for jobs way below their qualification level, the job market is like a lion’s den.  One positive thing that has surfaced since this recession is the surge in excellent customer service.  Businesses don’t want to lose their current customer’s, so they are spending more time training their employees about the importance of customer service.  Even before the recession hit , StorPlace Self Storage was concentrating on what they  would do to better serve their customers.  This is where the customer appreciation promotion came into play.

                Two years ago, StorPlace launched their now extremely popular customer appreciation promotion.  For all their current tenants in Middle Tennessee Nashville, his promotion is to thank our current tenants for their business, and to offer them a very special rate on an additional unit. This special allows all current tenants to rent and additional unit for only half the price! Yes, that’s right, only half price. This promotion lasts from September 1^st, until the last day in February.  This rate lasts for a total of 6 months (if you rent in September). If you are interested, you should act now because starting March 1^st, the rental rate goes back to normal!

                While this special is only for our current tenants, new tenants can take advantage of this special as well. One example of this is if you had the need for storage, but some of your stuff needs to be kept in a heated and cooled unit, and the rest belongs in a drive up unit. Some examples of items that do not need to be temperature regulated are; lawn equipment and furniture, Christmas decorations, vehicles (bicycles, motorcycles, cars), and clothing.  There are other items that should always be kept in a temperature regulated storage unit.  These items include; antiques, electronics, wood furniture, pianos, and paintings.

                Here at StorPlace we believe in only the highest quality standards for our employees.  Each employee is extensively trained to make our current and potential customers stay with us as pleasant as possible.  Each person that walks through the door will be greeted with a smile and a friendly face.  We all know that moving with Nashville movers  is nobody’s favorite pastime.  This is why our expert staff is here to assist you and make your experience as easy as possible.  The customer appreciation promotion is just one way we thank our wonderful customers.  You are likely to see a StorPlace manager walking their property on a hot day with cold water in hand, passing it out to tenants working in their storage space.

                Whether you have been a tenant with StorPlace for five years, or five minutes, we strive to treat our customers with the utmost respect and kindness.  Our customer appreciation promotion is to show our current tenants that we do appreciate their business, and what better way to show thanks than to give them a unit at half price?  If you think about it, 6 months half off equal a total of 3 free months.  That’s right I just said 3 free months!  Hurry down to your local StorPlace Self Storage today and start the savings.  We will be more than happy to accommodate your self storage needs!

Come visit us at StorPlace Self Storage and experience concierge customer service that has been rated 5 star and the best in the business. Come visit us at 1006 Flagpole Court, Brentwood, TN 37027, or you can call us at 615-373-3006.

Music, food, and lots of free giveaways will hallmark the first neighborhood celebration event sponsored by StorPlace Self Storage and merchants from The Shops of Old Hickory Blvd. 

Nashville, TN – August 21, 2009…………Back in the ‘good ole’ days’, a neighborhood was a friendly community where everybody knew everybody else and watched out for each other.  With the advent of texting, social media, and online communities, real neighborhoods might well be headed for an endangered species listing.  That’s why StorPlace Self Storage decided to celebrate the neighborhoods in which their 10 Nashville area stores are located.

 The first “StorPlace Neighborhood Appreciation Day” is scheduled for 11AM – 3PM on Friday, August 28, at the Old Hickory Blvd. / Nolensville Road store, located at 14985 Old Hickory Blvd. in Antioch.  The event is underwritten by The Shops at Old Hickory Blvd., which, in addition to StorPlace Self Storage, include Edward Jones, Geico, Jason Park – TNK Accounting and Tax Services, Inc., and Computer Renaissance.  Food is being donated by Kroger and Papa John’s Pizza, as well as several area restaurants.

 Two Metro Councilmen will also be on hand to greet their constituents.  Parker Toler, from the 31st District, and Sam Coleman, from the 32nd District, will serve as the official ribbon-cutters to kick off the festivities, which include food, music, and lots of time for getting to know the neighbors.

 StorPlace manager Pat Watson said, “We’re looking forward to meeting the people and other merchants in our neighborhood that give this community its unique character.  This is definitely a family-friendly event and we’ll have lots of coupons, gift certificates, and free giveaways for the people who attend.”

 StorPlace Self Storage manages and owns 10 self storage locations throughout Middle Tennessee Nashville. Presently, as a follow up top the Meet and Greet, they are offering a Customer Appreciation from September, 2009, to February, 2010, where every tenant can rent a second unit at a price of half off. The StorPlace Self Storage at Old Hickory Boulevard hosted this Meet and Greet. They are located at and can be reached at
