For many people, storage still feels like a “back-up plan.” Somewhere you go when you’ve run out of space, or when life throws you a curveball. But Modern Storage® was built to change that. We believe storage should be a modern solution that actually makes life easier, not just a last resort. That’s why Modern Storage® isn’t just a storage company. It’s a brand with a mission, and a promise. A Brand With Purpose From the start, Modern Storage® has been about more than units and gates. Our brand represents innovation, reliability, and trust.

Modern Storage® Becomes the #1 Liked Self-Storage Brand on TikTok

Modern Storage


Bold red graphic featuring the Modern Storage® logo above the text “#1 Self-Storage Brand on TikTok,” with the TikTok logo displayed below.

Modern Storage® has officially achieved what no other self-storage company has done, becoming the #1 most-liked self-storage brand on TikTok. With more than 535,200 likes and 23,900 followers, Modern Storage® has transformed an industry known for concrete walls and roll-up doors into a vibrant, shareable, and entertaining online community. This milestone is more than just a number. It’s a reflection of Modern Storage®’s commitment to redefining how people think about self-storage and proving that even in a practical industry, creativity and personality can win big. How Modern Storage® Is Changing the Self-Storage Conversation For decades, self-storage marketing was predictable: static photos of units, generic ads, and maybe a coupon in the local paper. Modern Storage® has flipped that script, embracing TikTok’s fast-paced, visual-first culture to create content that people actually look forward to watching. Their strategy combines: Engaging podcast clips from Modern Storage® Unpacked that offer real conversations and insider tips. Trend-driven videos that use popular audio, humor, and relatable scenarios to connect with viewers. Behind-the-scenes moments showing the real people behind the brand, from staff interactions to unique customer stories. Educational content that helps customers with moving tips, organizing hacks, and storage solutions they didn’t know they needed. This approach hasn’t just earned likes, it’s built trust, brand loyalty, and top-of-mind awareness for when viewers are ready to rent storage. Why This TikTok Milestone Matters for Self-Storage Self-storage is a need-based industry, meaning people often start looking only when life events require it, such as a move, a renovation, a business expansion, or downsizing. By creating consistent, high-quality content on TikTok, Modern Storage® is reaching potential customers long before they need to rent a unit. This gives the brand a major advantage: when those customers do need storage, they already know Modern Storage® as the fun, approachable, and professional brand they’ve been following for months. The TikTok success is also a signal that Modern Storage® understands where attention is going and isn’t afraid to lead the industry into new territory. What’s Next for Modern Storage® on TikTok Modern Storage® isn’t ...

Why College Students Need Self Storage: Declutter Dorm Life with Modern Storage®

Modern Storage


Podcast thumbnail for Modern Storage® Unpacked Episode 5 titled “Student Chaos: The Storage Struggle is Real” featuring host Hannah and guest Olivia, with text overlay and red Modern Storage® branding.

Dorm closets. Rotating wardrobes. Storage chaos. College students know that managing stuff in tight quarters is part of campus survival, and it’s not easy. In this episode of Modern Storage® Unpacked, we explore how one law student transformed her cluttered college life using a simple but powerful tool: a self-storage unit. If you’re a student juggling limited space, roommates, and seasonal chaos, this one’s for you. 🎓 Dorm Life vs. Real Life: The College Clutter Struggle From the outside, student life looks like classes, game days, and late-night study sessions. But behind the dorm door? It’s a war zone of overstuffed closets, storage bins, and makeshift shelving. Our guest this week shared her real-life dorm setup: three students. One closet. No room for anything. “We had one closet and way too much stuff. My car became my third closet.” Sound familiar? Whether you're in a dorm, apartment, or sorority house, space is tight, and it doesn’t take long for clutter to spiral. Common Student Storage Challenges Most college students face more than just a lack of closet space. Here's what we’re really seeing (and storing) at Modern Storage®: Seasonal wardrobes with no place to go Holiday décor, school keepsakes, and pageant crowns (yes, really!) Textbooks and class notes that don’t fit anywhere Sentimental items you don’t want to toss Packing your car like a storage unit just to get through the semester One student even found her sunglasses stored inside a box of Captain Crunch. Chaos, confirmed. How a Storage Unit Can Simplify Student Life Renting a small self-storage unit near campus was a game-changer for our guest, and it can be for you too. Benefits of student self storage at Modern Storage®: ✅ Store seasonal clothing, sports gear, and dorm décor ✅ Keep academic materials organized and accessible ✅ Avoid moving everything home over breaks ✅ Create more breathing room (literally and mentally) ✅ Protect irreplaceable keepsakes in a clean, climate-controlled environment “Clutter in my dorm became clutter in my brain.

TOP 5 STORAGE TIPS TO KICKSTART THE NEW YEAR

Modern Storage


5 STORAGE TIPS

As we step into the New Year, many of us feel inspired to declutter, reorganize, and start fresh. A self-storage unit can be your ultimate ally in this process, offering a practical solution to create a more organized and efficient space. To help you make the most of your storage experience, here are five essential tips to kickstart the year on the right foot: 1. Evaluate and Declutter Before packing up items for storage, take time to evaluate what you truly need. Go room by room and separate items into categories: keep, donate, recycle, or discard. Decluttering not only frees up space but also ensures you're storing only what’s necessary. This step is key to a streamlined, efficient storage process. 2. Create a Storage Plan Once you've decided what to keep, map out a plan for organizing your storage unit. Consider how often you’ll need access to specific items. Group similar items together: For example, seasonal décor, sports equipment, or archived documents. Designate zones: Allocate areas in your unit for different categories to make retrieval easier. A little planning goes a long way in maintaining an organized storage space. 3. Invest in Quality Packing Materials Protecting your belongings starts with proper packing. Use sturdy boxes, bubble wrap, and packing tape to safeguard your items. Pro Tip: Clearly label each box with its contents and the room it belongs to. This saves time and eliminates guesswork when retrieving items later. 4. Maximize Vertical Space Make the most of your storage unit by utilizing vertical space. Stack boxes neatly: Place heavier items on the bottom and lighter ones on top to avoid damage. Use shelving units (if allowed): Shelving keeps items off the ground and creates easy access points. This approach not only optimizes your space but also keeps your unit tidy and organized. 5. Regularly Review and Refresh Storage isn’t a “set it and forget it” solution. Revisit your storage unit every few months to take inventory of what you have. Assess whether you still need all stored items. Rotate seasonal items as needed. This ...

HOW MODERN STORAGE CAN HELP YOU STICK TO YOUR NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTIONS

Modern Storage


New Year's resolutions often come with big ambitions—decluttering your home, staying organized, pursuing hobbies, or improving your health. While these goals are exciting, staying committed can be a challenge without the right tools. This year, let Modern Storage help you achieve your resolutions by providing the space and structure you need to succeed. Here’s how: 1. Declutter Your Home to Create Mental Space Decluttering and getting organized are among the most popular resolutions, and for good reason. A clutter-free home promotes peace of mind and productivity. With a Modern Storage unit, you can temporarily store items you don’t need every day, creating more space in your home for what truly matters. By moving non-essential belongings out of sight, you’ll reduce stress, increase focus, and set the stage for achieving other resolutions like exercising, eating healthier, or practicing mindfulness. 2. Focus on Health and Fitness Goals If getting in shape is on your list, having a clean, motivating environment is key. Seasonal items like winter gear or bulky sports equipment can take up valuable space in your home. Store them safely in a Modern Storage unit to keep your living area open and inspiring. You can also store fitness equipment that isn’t used daily, freeing up room for yoga, stretching, or other activities. Modern Storage offers convenient access, so your equipment is always ready when you need it. 3. Pursue New Hobbies or Maintain Existing Ones Resolutions to develop a new hobby or dedicate time to an existing one are easier to stick to when your space is organized. Whether it’s art supplies, musical instruments, or gardening tools, a Modern Storage unit provides a secure place to keep your hobby gear accessible without cluttering your home. By having a designated space for your tools and materials, you’ll stay motivated to work on your passions, distraction-free. 4. Support Your Financial Goals Saving money, paying off debt, or budgeting for a major purchase are common New Year’s goals. A Modern Storage unit can be part of your financial ...
