My mom always said that tissue paper makes gifts elegant. That was definitely an elegant tote.

I always wonder what misfortune befell the owners of the storage unit and caused them to be unable to keep their stuff. It's interesting to see what you find but also a bit sad as well.

For just 25 bucks, it's fun to gamble, and open the totes...Buzz whispers to Miss Moose " I never saw "Lord of the Rings" either! haha......I could hear Burl Ives singing "Silver and Gold" as you were pulling out that jewelry...Here's an idea.....you can use those tickets, and sell them for 5 bucks apiece to tour the "Paper and Moose" ephemera and ceramic Christmas Tree , and knee hugging elves collection😁😁

I heard that, in some places, when people get evicted, the landlord has to box up ALL their tenants stuff and put it in storage and give the person access to the stuff, but sometimes I wonder if the person just moves away and starts all over or ends up in prison or in a shelter.

Buying storage lockers is like a lottery: in most cases you lost. Nonetheless you won again, Renée, because you just created another yt - block buster generating tons of $. Hopefully ! 🤞Concerning the content of this unit: you got some neat totes, a couple of gift cards, a winter hat, a bag of pennies and a whole pile of Christmas wrapping and tissue paper which is neat. So, not a bad result for a unit like that.👌No huge profits in sight so far, but also no losses. Thanks for the final advice as well, I am just shredding a lot of useless stuff which wasn´t mine. 😄Keep it up, and have a fantastic weekend ! 🌝 Greets from GER, U.

Your storage tips were great. As an accountant, I tell people all the time to scan stuff, if you're not sure. Otherwise most of the paper work you need to retain on a yearly basis is far less than you might think and you don't need to keep them forever, ha. BTW, take a chance on the average cost of the units you're buying. As this is all linked to content here on you tube, it's an expense and can be written off taxes. Please seek advice from a professional in your area though. When I had my own business I sought out an outside CPA to advise and do my taxes. Still, you're young take a chance. ;)

A point of interest to people putting things into storage. If there is a lot of shredding and you don't have the time to do it yourself, there are places that provide shredding. Most of the UPS stores, here, take paper to shred. Yes, it costs some money, but it's worth it if you have a lot. My husband cleared out his fathers home and they never threw away one piece of paper and I went through the same thing when it came to my dad moving and downsizing. I started doing the shredding myself and wrecked one shredder and was so tired of shredding paper, with the replacement shredder, that we hauled the rest to UPS. I do think people have good intentions regarding the other stuff they store and just don't get around to dealing with it.
@LB-ht1qk9 ай бұрын
I've used the UPS paper shredding service. They charge by the pound but, I thought it was worth it terms of the time it would have taken me. I understand some towns offer free paper shredding. My town offers it in the spring and fall. Now I know!
@llchapman12345 ай бұрын
Most people are putting their things in storage due to downsizing, moving in with relatives, hitting hard times, etc. It explains weird items being tossed in together willy-nilly as they were just trying to pack up the last items in a hurry.
@cindymichaud71119 ай бұрын
Hi Reneé, people don't consider the "value of goods to the cost of storage" relationship. How many pairs of scrubs could have been purchased with the money spent on storage fees? A lot! Have a blessed day 💖✝

A possible explanation for someone paying for storage and putting such things in it. I had to leave suddenly and had a few things that I couldn't give up or carry with me. Since I had space left over, I just put anything of value, potential value, for when I would have a place to put it. Even if you think they are valueless.

I paid to store belongings in a facility like this one with limited access. I moved to Europe and with a few exceptions needed to store everything I owned including my car. The moving company I used owned the facility and, when I moved back to the US, I just had to call them and get everything delivered to my new address.

I know people who rent storage units. A long time friend has nine (9) units. We're in 2BR condo and I toss junk every day. You'll get $$ for the scrubs and jewelry even if it's junk. The empty totes are worth something, too. Tina, Al's wife
@bettyhussong75279 ай бұрын
I wonder if the facility goes through the totes, takes the good items, and makes a pallet of the totes that have little value in them. These totes don’t seem like what a person would only put in storage. Usually, they have more totes with household items, clothes, etc.

Army trip, I bought a cute cookie jar in the shape, no not one of those, but of my other interest...vintage radios of the 20s-40s. This jar a very neat replica of a 1933 Philco Cathedral table model Set! All that wrapping paper...wall decoration for a Christmas living room?

I highly recommend watching the entire Lord of the Rings movie trilogy. It's really good and there's a lot of collectibles around it, including just the figurines you found, but also cards, pottery (mugs and stuff), jewelry, barbies, etc. And the character you're thinking of is Gollum/Smeagol. I'd also recommend getting acquainted with the books from which the LotR and Hobbit film series were made. The older editions of Tolkien's books are probably highly coveted by fans.

I enjoyed your video a whole lot! There might not have been any treasures. But, for $25 you picked up stuff that you eventually would've had to buy, anyhow. That's sure a win! Maybe the person had to make a quick exit and put everything in the totes, only to never bother to sort through the stuff and then finally just stopped paying for the storage. I'll tell ya, though - I sure don't know how they'd make due without those Tiki torches!!! I must've seen the "Lord Of The Rings" films dozens of times. Our TV service had a channel that played those films, only those films, on a continuous loop - day after day, week after week, year after year. The films are epic. Thanks again for taking us all along in your search for some treasures. It sure was great!
