They’re large, they’re private, and they’re secure. But best of all, private storage lockers are convenient!
Excuse the 18-pack of Dove Soap and the extra large bottle of Frank’s Red Hot in this video…
Hey, I never claimed to be a private person! My life is constantly on display on this blog, so now you all know that I buy everything in bulk at Costco.
Who doesn’t?
I was a little worried when I bought my condo and I couldn’t find the deed for the storage locker, but alas, the locker and the parking space come together on one deed, and while that means that I can’t split them up and sell the locker if I wanted to, I don’t think it has any effect on the resale value of the property as a whole.
I’m absolutely spoiled beyond belief with this locker, and it’s the convenience that sets it apart from other lockers, big or small.
Going “down to the locker” used to be such a chore when it was on a different floor than both the apartment and the parking space, but now it’s a dream!
I know that a private, over-sized locker never shows up on anybody’s “wish list,” but I can tell you from experience that it’s a huge asset, and worth every penny if you’re breaking this down financially.
Show me one person who has ever said, “I like that condo, BUT, the walk-in closet in the master bedroom is just too big. I don’t have that many clothes!” Or somebody saying, “The centre island is too big – I don’t have that many pots and pans.”
Storage space, for clothing, kitchen appliances, or winter tires, is never in abundance.
If I could buy a second storage locker like the one in the video, I probably would…
Moonbeam!

You have a storage room (not just a locker) with a locked door, and it’s located beside your parking spot and beside the elevator! This is a real asset in my opinion! could even be a man-cave!!

Or you could charge someone to live in the box:
% Bob settles in at the Broken Dreams Storage Locker facility.
Raphael:Okay, here’s your storage locker, just the way you left it.
Bob: Thank you, Raphael. Now, this is a ticklish question, but…
Raphael: You want to live in the box? Cost you two bucks a day.
Bob: Oh thank you, kind innkeeper. [hands Raphael some money]
Raphael: You gonna wanna wake-up jab? [makes jabbing motion with a broom handle]
Bob: Please.
Raphael: No problemo.
