The storage unit companies have actually calculated the tipping point, after which people stop thinking the situation as a temporary storage and just keep paying because the thought of transferring the stuff either back to their premises or to a dump is too overwhelming.

​@@primordial_platypus however, expired film can give really nice effects, which some people are after. Unless stored cold, as a rule of thumb, you drop one stop for every decade passed. Example: a 400 ISO roll after 20 years, best shoot at ISO 100 (400->200->100).

[@ruthmahoney8170]

Reminds me of what we call scammer units. A flipper saves the trash runs and as they work through units they pile what they don't want in a unit and when it's full they quit paying. That would explain why even the taped boxes were half ripped open.

That looks like either the person paying for the unit when they got locked out cut the lock off and took as much valuable stuff out of the unit as they could get.

[@kikihammond5326]

No, those cut off locks are from a prior time when they went to sell the unit, but the owner reclaimed it before the sale went through. Watch enough of these types of videos and you will see it a lot. Multiple cut locks are a sign that there is likely something valuable inside the owners don't want to let go, so they find the money to reclaim it and pay off arrearage before the sale finalizes.

[@genxthings]

The reason why the locker had a cut lock is because it was auctioned off before, the first bidder picked what they wanted and left the rest. This explains the mess. It's cheaper to lose a deposit than it is to haul and take to the dump.

[@opaqueentity]

Most places wouldn't allow you to just leave stuff behind, you have to clear it allout in a set period of time hence why Alex rushed.

[@genxthings]

@@opaqueentity I have over well 1000 units under my belt. Yes, you have a time limit when you actually clean it out and want your deposit back. The reason you leave a deposit when cleaning out is exactly for the reason if you don't clean it. When it's this much they just put it back up for auction. Do you really think people are standing at the door chucking their stuff into a locker? Losing a $100-$200 deposit or losing $60-$100 dump fee plus fuel, time, and labor is usually a good trade-off. When you do it for a living, it sometimes makes more sense to lose your deposit.

[@opaqueentity]

@ if you don’t mind never being able to go back there again sure. Not everywhere has a deposit or a cleaning fee you can be charged

[@genxthings]

@@opaqueentity Correct, not all require a deposit, however I know plenty of people who have skipped cleaning, lost deposits and continue to go to the same facilities. That is the point of the deposits. Now I'll admit I don't know of anyone who has done that when a deposit is not required. That may be the exception, not the rule. I have been doing lockers on and off for 25 years. I'm pretty sure I know how it works.

My exact thoughts too! I found, along with my group street dumpters walkers, we found an old Nokia electric piano with its foldbale stand and box. Excellent condition. I went online to find its manual, there was none. So, we decided to donate it as it was. The lady who runs the donation centre told us that an older gent bought the piano and he had prior pieces, ie. the cables, the manual, and the stereo sound mixer. I was beyond happy that it went to a good home! Same with Nintendo Games, those manuals can be sold for a great price to others who already own the game and pieces.

The game table likely uses standard diameter pipe. Remove the parts and replace the pipe. Conduit might even work. You can also straighten metal tubing by forcing a smaller diameter metal pipe down the center of the tube using a wood mallet. The ring may have paid for the unit, but did it pay you for your labor and other costs? The problem with buying such units are many: 0. You can't see much of what is inside, unlike a live estate auctions where you can see everything. 1. You have to put a deposit down that you only get back if you clean it out. So if there is a hidden chest freezer in the back you are going to need to haul that out and properly dispose of it or loose your deposit. 2. In some cases such units have been used by a business to dispose of waste material that would cost a large amount of money to dispose of. They could; for instance, fill the back of the unit with many boxes of expired chemicals. Paying the rent on the unit for a couple months before abandoning it will be lot cheaper that paying disposal fees at a state approved site. Now you are stuck with paying for the disposal of the chemicals or losing your deposit. 3. You might find other dangerous items such as loose live ammunition simply dumped into boxes that could go off. You could find guns that require a permit for you to own. The largest live shells at a live auction I've seen was a 50 caliber shell from WWII, just tossed in a box with a bunch of other items. At one estate a guy had tossed live 22 shells in one of the multi drawer sorters they store fasteners in. 4. The materials inside have been exposed to high and low temperatures, rodents, insects, humidity and other harmful conditions. 5. Items such as motorcycles will most likely not have a title and it can be expensive to get one. 6. The unit can contain stolen items.

Some scrupulous store and lock owner has gone through another unit and probably removed anything of value then sold the junk to a unknowing bidder. I stopped buying units just because of that reason, I did find clues, as staged items towards the front, boxes that had good items on the box but item nowhere to be found and boxes not stack neatly, all dead give aways of a scrounged unit. Another trick is winning bidders will rent a unit before they buy a bunch of auction units then fill the rented unit with the junk from the units and not pay the bill, then that unit goes up for action.
