The problem is that when you win a storage unit, you are responsible for the contents. Meaning, you have 30 days to remove all the contents and clean the unit out or be forced to pay the monthly storage fee.
if you hit a jackpot, that’s all good but if you get a unit with a 1000 pounds of dirty clothes and beat-up furniture, you still have to get rid of it. So not only are you out the money you paid to win the auction, you also have to rent a truck, hire help to move all the junk to the truck and then pay a dumping fee to the garbage dump you take it to. Not worth it
