Our take

Founded in 2011, StorageTreasures operates an online platform for marketing and auctioning abandoned or unpaid self-storage units. The platform acts as a bridge between those operating in the self-storage selling space, such as auctioneers and appraisers, and public buyers who may be interested in the contents going to auction.

The main value of the platform is in its ability to enable storage industry players to easily comply with state laws across the US, which protects tenants and bidders alike. On top of this, it supplies a comprehensive database of storage auctions, and an information portal for self-storage news, curating information for industry enthusiasts and professionals alike.

As the world's largest online self-storage auction platform - hosting over 18,000 auctions a month - StorageTreasures has already established a strong presence for itself. It is managed by self-storage innovator OpenTech Alliance, a powerhouse in the field, granting it plenty of scope for future growth and innovation.

Company values

  • Doing it Right — our founders had worked at companies in our past that did things that we felt were not right. We witnessed what happens when companies take short cuts, bend the truth, get greedy, probably the thing we see the most is business that care more about their business than their customer’s business. We feel by being committed to our customers’ success more than ours, we will make better decisions and ultimately be more successful ourselves. OpenTech is not a “get rich quick” plan and we like it that way. Our goal is to build a company we are proud of and one that attracts quality employees, partners, and customers. We decided that “Doing it Right” was a perfect guiding principal for our business.
  • Being Open — it is kind of ironic we started the business by purchasing a patent, which typically is used as a tool to lock others out of new technologies. We believe that owners and operators should be able to choose different solutions from vendors and have it all work together seamlessly, which is why we have always invested heavily to integrate with all the major facility management software platforms in our industry. We want our customers to have the freedom to choose the systems that they feel are the best fit for the business. Hopefully the industry sees that this is not a new idea for us, it is why “Open” is part of our company name.
  • Kaizen – we are continuously improving our people, processes, and solutions.
  • WWDWBW – We have developed a commitment culture at OpenTech, and you will often hear our team members say, “who will do what, and by when?”. Our commitment to you is that we will make and keep our commitments.
