Tropical Storage

Individual storage has existed from earliest of times. While on a trip to Xian China, Buz Victor, the founder of the Self-Storage Association, saw where the Chinese people stored their belongings in clay pots in public underground storage pits as far back as 6, 000 years ago. John Yelland, one of the 1st self-storage pioneers in California, noted that when British banking institutions were asked to safeguard valuables for customers embarking on extended voyages, the bankers would seek space from the moving (drayage) firms.
