Between busy schedules, major life transitions, and growing storage needs, having more visibility and control over a storage unit can make all the difference. For those considering whether a smart storage unit is the right solution, Daffodil Storage provides helpful features to enhance the experience.

What Makes a Storage Unit “Smart”?

A smart storage unit includes built-in motion sensors that detect activity and send real-time text alerts directly to your phone. These notifications inform you when someone enters your unit or when movement is detected inside, without requiring you to visit the facility.

Smart units also eliminate the need for physical keys and gate access codes. Just download the mobile app, and your smart device becomes the key to your storage unit. Speaking of your storage unit, if your rental includes smart access, you can also remotely add or revoke access for another person through the app.

If smart units or smart access sound right for your needs, you can find smart units and smart access at select Daffodil Storage locations to enhance your storage experience:

When Is a Smart Unit Worth It?

A smart storage unit can be especially helpful if you want an additional layer of reassurance for your belongings. This type of unit works well for customers who are:

  • Storing business equipment, tools, or supplies
  • Away from home frequently and want updates from a distance
  • Using the unit for seasonal items or documents
  • Looking for a more hands-off way to check in on stored items

Smart units are also useful when storing important paperwork or files you may want to keep organized and accessible.

More Than Just Alerts

Keypad entry, automated gates, and live video monitoring are available at all Daffodil Storage facilities. Whether you’re stopping by during business hours or accessing your unit after dark, these features help you feel more in control of the experience and offer a setup built for flexibility and confidence.

Should You Make the Switch?

For many storage users, upgrading to smart technology can be a practical choice, especially if you’re storing seasonal decorations, business inventory, or important household items. It’s an easy way to keep an eye on what matters without making extra trips to the facility. Daffodil Storage also offers a variety of secure storage options tailored to different needs.
