Turn a storage unit into a SHOP

Climate controlled, double doors, electricity...what else do you need? Temporary fix to a big problem we had.

[@JohnLange]

Thanks for everyone commenting on the video!

I just did this earlier this week and was completely transparent & the storage unit was completely cool with it. The employees even started shopping my inventory 😂

[@erike1235]

Which company? Local or chain?

[@uglyjihad]

@@erike1235 def local, I'm doing it too at my local storage unit and they're cool AF with it especially if I help them with their cars such as oil service

[@Nikita-e6n]

@@uglyjihad cool! I’m looking forward to get myself some space to work on my cars as a hobby. I was glad to hear that! Do you work on cars? Do you also use grinder and all the noisy stuff?

Your sign off was pure gold. 😎👌

I got me a commercial unit!

[@LastCommodore]

Does the rent include the electric?

jam a small wood dowel in the hole to fill some space to install screw

I I wanted to buy a shed for my backyard but using a storage unit is so much more convenient seems like i

[@Beemgod]

Got my new mobile detailing trailer in public storage around the corner from my house

[@joederue2392]

You think I could do welding in the unit.

[@davesogn3329]

How are you actually able to put those hooks on there without damaging the building

[@Lucas-kj5kv]

Watch the video and find out.

[@davethewindowlicker2367]

Awesome as usual

[@1zfam905]

Say less! 🤣

[@caylee3277]

Can I fit 2 cars in a 10x 30

[@577buttfan]

Thats pretty cool bro!!Climate control huh!!

[@davesogn3329]

I'm surprised they're allowed to let you work out of a storage unit

[@austinshupe9626]

Nice job! Im doing the same thing but in a 20x25 garage. Its got no power and climate though. So i got lights running off of 2 Milwaukee batterys and a generator for everything else. I run a 240v 60 gallon air compressor off of the generator too. I wish i could find a garage like yours. Im only paying 100 a month for it though

[@relaxcustoms]

Only $100 man where are you!

[@toddluns1]

I live in NC, and after every job now my only mission is to ride around and pull up my competitors signs. Not all my competitors just the one idiot that advertises house wash $85....2 story $145.....I got permission from the city and they told me that any sign that isn't on personal property is considered in violation of code so before you other splash and dashers get your panties in a wad I'm ONLY helping to keep NC beautiful....so take your next two $85 jobs and go buy more signs... you're gonna need um!!! Roflmao

[@bobhansen8975]

TOOO Freaking Funny- I did the exact same thing a week ago....Great minds think alike.

[@Toytatu]

Do you think I could do a salon in one of these?

[@Jojo-uu1vb]

Wondering the same thing, I want to do lashes out of one. Have you found out anything?

[@Toytatu]

@@Jojo-uu1vb I have not found out, I have let this idea go. Are you able to get a nice shed ?

[@tntwashpro3863]

Something that size in California would cost over $1200 a month and that's on the lower end. Oh, without climate control

[@JohnLange]

Mike A ....for a storage unit?

[@tntwashpro3863]

@@JohnLange yes. I have one a third that size and it cost 360

[@okalejandro2515]

They dont even exist in California like those with electricity

[@micheleconward-wiggins5083]

This video was confirmation for me. Thanks!

[@Syrin08]

I rent a non-heated 2 car garage as my shop for $220/month. Its really nice to have a separate space for your tools and equipment.

[@31dragun]

Where is that located?

[@zzddzzzz]

What would you pay per month to have a similar set up with plumbing, heat, a/c (garage type building)?

[@nkh1774]

Fuckin eh brother, I'm a new start up, branching off after making my boss all the paper for sadly 8yrs.if I've been wanting to do this for years tho and it's finally happened.I also am planning on having my shop in a storage unit.Lovin your content,respect from winnipeg, 🇨🇦👍🏼😎

Btw I'm not dead to you😂#teamwashlife

[@toddluns1]

My double garage is my shop. Works great. Two trailers in here and I keep it around 65-68 degrees. SH delivered to my doorstep as long as I pay cash.

[@POLOAZTECA]

Cool... Im looking for something like this in Dallas, Tx! If any body knows of any let Me know! Thanks...

[@nofd1977]

what is power washing? like pressure washing?

[@JohnLange]

nofd1977 yea same thing...like saying “soda or pop”

[@Benmeglei1]

Hey brother. I’m in Illinois too. Just got a unit today for my woodworking hobby. I’m so excited I’ve been searching for months for a chill place that will let you work out of a unit. 👊🏻

[@kturcotte]

Doing the same thing for my business right now, not quite as big as your unit but perfect for what I need. Storage place is 30 seconds from my house and I already rent a unit its just full of shit i dont need, in the process of cleaning all that stuff out and moving my tools and equipment there, gonna be nice to have everything all organized in one spot and have my equipment out of the weather when I dont need it

[@blown94camaroz]

I run a full bike shop out of a storage facility.. Works wonderfully

[@thecortneyb.8486]

How do you get electricity and WiFi inside?

Bicycle?

@@donsterr yes

[@grawnimo9872]

I can’t watch your video because it is not focused enough or see you clearly. Sounds like a great video too bad I couldn’t see anything 💯

[@jackpinnell3204]

rather than putting a small nut in the screw hole, take a small piece of wooden dowel rad, stick it in the hole and run the screw in. I use that method all the time when when we find a loose shutter on a brick house.

[@wetwindowsguy8396]

Your gonna be blessed because your so useful

[@merrills1460]

Great unit! Cheap money! I use a couple of smaller ones now at $400 no heat/ac. There are no larger ones available here. Found a homeowner on Craigslist who is going to rent me a two car garage for $400.00. Enjoy it!

[@corrinedirks1601]

That wouldn't work in Minnesota. Winter is 6 months of the year. Where are you located?

I believe the term for these units are called “contractor bays,” feel free to correct me if I’m wrong. 😊
