$39/month And it does everything you could possibly imagine. Totally hands off, no people required, no interaction with the customer required.

First I would say, there is storage business software that wraps this all up for you. For something of that scale, I would think the ROI of that software is prohibitive, but likely less so than doing it yourself with what I assume your time is worth. At least that was the case last time I looked. There is somebody in Utah that claims to have software a small business like you describe could afford. The second thing I would say is I wouldn't do it with conex boxes. While I Like those containers and they are generally tighter than purpose built storage buildings, they turn renters off. Every site I have seen with them looks a bit dodgy and people seem to expect to pay less for those sites. A fence would be advisable. Units without fencing get burglary attempts than non fenced. I think it is likely due to the perception thieves have about the rest of the attitude on security. Maybe I am wrong but the people who call me are more worried about security than price. I would also suggest putting up a HikVision, or if you prefer, Ubiquiti, camera system as well. Even a fake camera system would be worth the effort. Lastly, Throw all that out if this land isn't in a good location and just use conex boxes. Storage is a real estate business similar to others and if the location isn't good you will fight that uphill battle. If there are a lot of businesses in the area they may like those for storage. Don't know. We have had really good results with our warehouse storage. Call if you want to talk about it.

I want software where they will go online, see vacancies, rent, auto pay etc. Totally hands off. Even like a phone app to open the gate for them when they want to get into the place. Hate to develop code for this. It has to exist out in the world somewhere... Any ideas.
