Self Storage And Charity Works Uniquely American


The land of the free is known for its liberty and generosity to developing nations. It is also famous for a lot of stuff like food, culture, sports, celebrities and vacation spots. But there is another thing that Americans should be proud of and that is the self storage industry. According to extraspace.com, the self storage industry is uniquely American. It is a growing industry that is also associated with many charitable works. What is refreshing is how Americans can be so creative in organizing their charity works.

Let’s take garage sales for example. Although the origin of garage sales is still uncertain, for many years, people in the America have sold their possessions in hopes to earn something even a little amount of money. Several self storage companies today are organizing garage sales in the hope to help local charities. In Chicago, LifeStorage, a self storage company has made it a practice to hold garage sales as a way of giving tenants and community members the opportunity to clean out their room and at the same time, make a little cash in the process. Proceeds can go to wherever charity they want to donate to or if they are in need financially, the extra cash would help get by the day.

Aside from hosting garage sales, others also held events at self storage facilities like holloween parties, self storage auctions, and more. You can just be creative and discover art in self storage.
