In the self storage industry comes across many odd tenants and stories that they have to deal with each and every year. You would think that self storage is just a place where someone could store their goods while they are in the process of moving, or for a business that needs free space to store their overload of files that they have to hold on to for the next seven years in case they need to refer back to the logs.

However, not only is it used for your basic self storage needs but other oddities occur that real estate management has to deal with. These circumstances although unpredictable, must still be dealt with.

There was once an auction that was held by real estate management at a storage property because the tenant could not keep up with their monthly storage fees. The storage facility had to put the unit up for auction as they normally do when someone defaults in their rent. The unit in turn was sold to the highest bidder.

When the person who purchased the unit, was able to go through the items of the space, they opened up a barbecue grill that had something wrapped in aluminum foil. The purchaser thought it was a piece of wood, but instead it turned out to be a real life human leg.

When real estate management reported this to the police, it turned out that the previous owner of the storage unit had his leg amputated for medical reasons and wanted to save his leg as a souvenir. The rightful owner of the leg was reunited with his leg after a full investigation was conducted. Unbelievable, but true.
