To show a unit as unavailable- how is that done?

Hello to California Central Coast Self Storage Facilities, We are seeking the names of some auction houses. We are not interested in online auctions at this time. Whom do you suggest? Thank you.

What do storage facilities do when they have a unit that's been liened but there is nothing at all of any value in it? 

We have all hours set properly in all of our software. Gate access is closed down after 10pm. However, we have noticed one particular user has been able to get in using easycode at all hours. He seems to have 24 hour access and this is NOT set up as 24 hour access. I've updated gates and triple checked everything from…

What is the best way to put in the charge for an auction cleaning deposit when using CC for the payment method that will not leave a balance owed when refunded? Our facilities are managed virtually so accepting cash for the cleaning deposits is not an option. 

* Laura September 14Hello, I have a few concerns and a very angry customer. It's probably my fault but they never signed a lease agreement for the unit.

Getting ready to do rate increases next month. Do they need to be physically mailed or is email acceptable? Obviously mailed for tenants without emails but for everyone else?

I have told this tenant verbally and in writing that she needs to pay on time. She has been late 26 times out of 32 months. She comes in on the first and pays for the previous month including late fee, then pays that month the following month + late fee. Not sure if we can give her a 30-day notice?

We received an email stating Recurring charges were going to 13 from 8. Not sure what that is. Thanks.

Hi All, I am considering adding the SMS, email and robo collections through Storable's Call Potential. I'd love to hear from anyone with experience with this. I have the late notices that go out through text and email now, but the customer to navigate the unfriendly payment portal in the StorEdge website. I use Sitelink as…

Does anyone on here take online rentals using your own website? Would you be willing to share your site so we can see what it looks like? 

I had a customer reach out and tell me they had received a past due notice and they had already paid for the month.

After further investigation, and a multi hour…

I have a unit that's ready for auction next week. I cut the lock off so I could inventory it, and it has mouse feces everywhere. It's really gross. The floor and furniture are coved in it.

Anybody else have a portion of their buttons missing? This is since the most recent "update". How come every time there's an update recently somethings messed up?

A company is leasing a unit but the representative has signed the lease. the rep is no longer with the company but is still listed on our lease, who legally has this unit and lease? What information can be given to the company?

Hi! I exported a report last month, and can't remember which one it was. I was attempting to track CPC and Eric at Support and he directed me to download this report to see it. But I cannot for the life of me find the report. It is not called Inquiry Tracking, obviously LOL. If anyone could help, I'd really appreciate it.…

For those of you that sell merchandise and accept cash - How are you handing the penny being fazed out? I adjusted all my pricing to include sales tax and have it calculated to come out to an even number. Wasn't sure if there were any other options.

Was wondering if anyone has any input into adding the price of basic TPP/Ins directly into their standard rates. We are getting pushback from customers about the added fee in TPP/Ins.
