Specialty Insurance for Self-Storage Facility Owners

We arrange property and casualty programs built specifically for storage operations, from single facilities to multi-state portfolios. Coastal and hard-to-place locations welcome.

We insure storage facilities, not the contents of individual units. If you rent a unit and want to protect your belongings, ask your facility about its tenant protection plan or contact your renters insurance provider.

Who We Work With

Our team works with the people who own and operate storage properties.

Facility Owners and Operators

Drive-up, climate-controlled, and mixed-use self-storage facilities, including properties with RV, boat, and vehicle storage.

Multi-Property Portfolios

Independent owners and partnerships holding several facilities across one state or many. We structure blanket programs that treat the portfolio as one account.

Buyers and Developers

Acquisitions, refinances with lender insurance requirements, conversions of existing buildings, and ground-up construction moving from course of construction into a permanent program.

Coastal and Hard-to-Place Properties

Wind-exposed locations that generalist agents struggle to place. We are based in Florida and work in one of the most demanding property markets in the country.

Why Storage Is Different

A Standard Business Policy Was Not Built for Storage

A storage operator is a landlord with a unique legal position. Your rental agreement says you are not responsible for tenant property, but courts find operators negligent more often than owners expect: a known roof issue left unrepaired, a lien sale that missed one step in a state statute, hazardous materials abandoned in a unit. Standard business owner policies typically exclude or ignore these exposures. Storage-specific programs exist for exactly this reason, and knowing the difference is our job, not yours.

The Team Behind the Program

Storage is not a sideline for us. We are a specialty practice focused on the risks facility owners actually face, from lien sale statutes to coastal wind placement, and we stay current so you do not have to. Behind every program is a dedicated account management team handling the day-to-day: certificates for your lender, endorsements when you refinance or acquire, and mid-term changes when your operation grows. You get specialists who know your industry and a service team that picks up the phone.
