About The publication
About Storage Automation: A Self Storage Automation Guide
Storage Automation is a vendor-neutral guide to automating self storage operations. It is published by Storagely.
Storagely makes website and online rental software for self storage operators. This site covers self storage facilities only, not IT data storage or warehouse automation.
Editorial standards
- Vendor-neutral. Guides compare options fairly and do not recommend products. Storagely is listed in the automation stack map on the same terms as every other vendor, and no vendor pays for placement.
- Links to Storagely. This site links to Storagely-owned sites in five places: the "Published by Storagely" footer link, Storagely's row in the stack map, one Storagely blog post each from the contactless move-in and AI call answering guides, and one Storagely help article from the abandoned rental recovery guide. A guide on lien notices also links to a lien law summary on Go Self Storage, another Storagely-owned site. All of these links are marked
nofollow. - Linked sources. Factual claims link to their sources, listed at the end of each guide. We cite laws, government agencies and vendors' own sites for their own products.
- Review. Each guide shows the date it was last reviewed.
- Corrections. If something is wrong or out of date, tell us through the Storagely contact page. We fix it and update the review date.
