Fort Lauderdale, FL (prHWY.com) December 18, 2012 - The concept of Self Storage or Mini Storage originated in1960 from a place called Texas where it stated by building a type of garage and renting it and that became successful business concept that was then followed tremendously. To estimate the success of this business lets look at the figures stated by Morgan Stanley, a survey company than some 1.875 billion square feet of U.S space is occupied as a self storage space with more than 40,000 facilities and about 2000 entrepreneurs. This can give an exact idea of how much American store in the privately owned storage spaces. Surprising part of one of the survey states that about 90% of the storage spaces are occupied and average month of occupancy is about 15 months.
