Storage Tips for Landlords, Property Owners and Others

Welcome to my blog. I have long stored things in storage lockers, but this is the first time I've ever really "stored" anything online. In this blog, I plan to store (sorry, I love puns) my thoughts and tips about storage, but first, let me tell you a little bit about myself. My name is Gene, and I own several blocks of flats.
