Good Afternoon!
I just spoke with Tropical Shipping, and I can ship 100 cubic feet of personal effects from FL for about $200.00. Are there any good storage units/facilities I can leave my boxed personal effect in while I locate a permanant residence?

Edgar,
5 x 5 foot storage unit is roughly $95/month
5 x 10 foot storage unit is roughly $160/month
We rented a 5 x 10 and downsized to a 5 x 5 and finally are moving the last boxes into our 'new' home. It seemed strange to me, but there are businesses in the storage unit area. They rent a storage unit or series of units and make it into a store. Just different from the States. Post office boxes at Fortress are $5/month. Cheap and have a street address. There is also Bovoni Storage of which I do not know prices.

I knew of a storage facility in Dallas that also allowed businesses to be run from them. They had a few with offices built in. You had 24hr access and the security of a gated facility. The units by the road were opened to the road and a convenience store operated out of it. Pretty cool for a start-up business that needed storage/warehouse.
