4 Myths About Storage Auctions
While storage unit auctions are becoming more popular each year, there are some myths still surfacing about them. If you’re new to storage auctions, or you’re looking to learn more about it. Let's start by debunking some common myths about storage auctions:
Myth #1 Every Unit is Valuable While it’s our goal that you get lucky, we recommend not going into a storage unit with the idea that you will always find rare treasures. Although there might be some hidden gems in your unit that are worth value, it’s not going to be the case every time. When you're bidding on a storage unit, make sure you're going in open-minded because you do have a great chance of taking home some unique treasures.
Myth #2 Valuable Items Are Removed Before Auctions Another common myth that surfaces in the auction world are when people say that valuable items are removed before auctions. At Storage Auctions, we are proud to share that we’ve had many success stories within our company. We want to see our customers succeed!
Myth #3 It’s Impossible to Tell What’s Inside a Unit Although you can’t physically check out a unit before the auction begins, most times, you can get a look at the overview of the unit before you place your bid. At Storage Auctions, you can preview pictures of our storage units before you make a bid. However, part of the thrill of a storage unit auction is that you don’t know everything that you’re bidding on. So, there might be items packed away in boxes or covered with blankets that you might not be able to get a great look at until the auction is finished.
