More Self-Storage Facilities Coming To Metro Phoenix?

When a big box stores closes, there is no shortage of ideas for what to do with that space.

But a relatively new one is starting to gain more traction here — turning it into a self-storage facility.

Part of the appeal is the Valley’s population growth — people moving means people need a place to put their stuff — and operators from across the country are looking at expansion possibilities here.

With me to talk more about this is Al Harris. He's web editor at SpareFoot.com, an online marketplace for self-storage.
